Obtaining quality business school examination timetable under heterogeneous elective selections through surrogacy
Business schools that follow an elective system allows a student to select required number of electives in a semester from a larger pool. The...

Modeling Uncertainty in the Timetable-Based Railway Network Design Problem
Many European countries plan their railway infrastructure according to strategic timetables, using them as input for further strategic and tactical... -
Timetable compression using max-plus automata applied to large railway networks
Demand for railway transportation keeps on growing. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the capacity of railway networks is crucial. In this...

An Optimization-Based Decision Support Tool for Incremental Train Timetabling
We consider the typical workflow of a route planner in the context of short-term train timetabling, that is, the incremental process of adjusting a...

Introducing TimPassLib – A Library for Integrated Periodic Timetabling and Passenger Routing
Classic models to derive a timetable for public transport often face a chicken-and-egg situation: A good timetable should offer passengers routes...
-
Curriculum-based university course timetabling considering individual course of studies
We consider a complex university timetabling problem arising in a four-year study program of teacher education where every student has to choose two...

Tracing rail transformation: the case of passenger services in Slovenia from 1975 to 2015
In the 1990s, Slovenia was part and neighbor of a series of disruptive events, undergoing a change from member state of a diverse socialist...

A matheuristic for passenger service optimization through timetabling with free passenger route choice
Designing a public transport timetable that maximizes passenger service, measured in weighted travel time, is an intricate problem. The weighted...

Strategies for dealing with uncertainty in time-relaxed sports timetabling
Time-relaxed sports timetables use more time slots than strictly needed, and are particularly popular in amateur (indoor) leagues. However, due to...

A pattern-based timetabling strategy for a short-turning metro line
The planning of metro lines is typically done through a strictly hierarchical approach, which is effective but somewhat inflexible. In this paper, we...

Optimizing rest times and differences in games played: an iterative two-phase approach
A considerable number of sports competitions cope with limited availability of teams and sports infrastructure by organizing their timetable around a...

Bi-criteria simulated annealing for the curriculum-based course timetabling problem with robustness approximation
In the process of develo** a university’s weekly course timetable, changes in the data, such as the available time periods of professors or rooms,...

A matheuristic for customized multi-level multi-criteria university timetabling
Course timetables are the organizational foundation of a university’s educational program. While students and lecturers perceive timetable quality...

Optimal balanced chain decomposition of partially ordered sets with applications to operating cost minimization in aircraft routing problems
We consider the task of constructing a cost-effective daily flight schedule with a minimum number of required aircrafts and a maximum number of...

A supervised machine learning model for imputing missing boarding stops in smart card data
Public transport has become an essential part of urban existence with increased population densities and environmental awareness. Large quantities of...

Optimization Algorithm
Everyone has used a timetable during his/her school years. The timetables vary with different schools, majors and studying phases. Have you ever... -
Round-robin scheduling with regard to rest differences
Fairness is a key consideration in designing sports schedules. When two teams play against each other, it is only fair to let them rest the same...

A Mutation Based Modular Evolutionary Scheme for Integrated Timetabling and Vehicle Scheduling With headways and Connection Quality Criteria
We propose an adaptive modular evolutionary scheme for optimizing the NP-Hard integrated timetabling and vehicle scheduling problem (TTVSP) in public... -
Resolution of coupling order and station level constraints in train unit scheduling
Train unit scheduling assigns vehicles to cover all trips of a fixed timetable satisfying constraints such as seat demands. With a two-phase...

An analysis of the parameterized complexity of periodic timetabling
Public transportation networks are typically operated with a periodic timetable. The periodic event scheduling problem (PESP) is the standard...
