Applications and Potentials of Auction Theory in Management Accounting
In economics, the applications of auction theory are very broad. The present paper examines the applications of auction theory, especially in a... -
Employee substitutability as a tool to improve the robustness in personnel scheduling
Organisations usually construct personnel rosters under the assumption of a deterministic operating environment. In the short term, however,...

Responce in Denmark: From Competitor to Partner
This case study is about Responce, a small Danish provider of emergency services which was established in 2007 as an independent company and has... -
A graph partitioning strategy for solving large-scale crew scheduling problems
Railway crew scheduling deals with generating driver duties for a given train timetable such that all work regulations are met and the resulting...

Background
In this chapter, we describe the planning process of a public transport company (Section 2.1) and, especially, the crew rostering problem in Section... -
Conclusion & Outlook
This thesis investigates the crew rostering problem in public bus transit. In previous chapters, we have studied this particular problem, various... -
Workload Balancing in Transportation Crew Rostering
In crew rostering, balanced workload allocation is a critical issue and an important planning phenomenon that affects both the quality of crew... -
Introduction
The crew rostering problem is one of the main operational problems in public bus transit, and is being paid an increasing amount of attention in... -
Required Work and Scope of the Thesis
In the previous chapter, we discussed how CCR and NCCR problems are solved in transportation sectors according to the literature. Both are widely... -
A constraint programming-based approach to the crew scheduling problem of the Taipei mass rapid transit system
This paper addresses the crew scheduling problem for a mass rapid transit (MRT) system. The problem is to find a minimum number of duties to cover...
