Dynamic Algorithms for Recoverable Robustness Problems

Authors: Serafino Cicerone, Gabriele Di Stefano, Michael Schachtebeck, and Anita Schöbel

Abstract
Recently, the recoverable robustness model has been introduced in the optimization area. This model allows to consider disruptions (input data changes) in a unified way, that is, during both the strategic planning phase and the operational phase. Although the model represents a significant improvement, it has the following drawback: we are typically not facing only one disruption, but many of them might appear one after another. In this case, the solutions provided in the context of the recoverable robustness are not satisfying. In this paper we extend the concept of recoverable robustness to deal not only with one single recovery step, but with arbitrarily many recovery steps. To this aim, we introduce the notion of dynamic recoverable robustness problems. We apply the new model in the context of timetabling and delay management problems. We are interested in finding efficient dynamic robust algorithms for solving the timetabling problem and in evaluating the price of robustness of the proposed solutions.

12. Robust Algorithms and Price of Robustness in Shunting Problems

Authors: Serafino Cicerone, Gianlorenzo D'Angelo, Gabriele Di Stefano, Daniele Frigioni, and Alfredo Navarra

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 7, 7th Workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS'07) (2007)


Abstract
In this paper we provide efficient robust algorithms for shunting problems concerning the reordering of train cars over a hump. In particular, we study algorithms able to cope with small disruptions, as temporary and local availability and/or malfunctioning of key resources that can occur and affect planned operations. To this aim, a definition of robust algorithm is provided. Performances of the proposed algorithms are measured by the notion of price of robustness. Various scenarios are considered, and interesting results are presented.

15. Maintenance of Multi-level Overlay Graphs for Timetable Queries

Authors: Francesco Bruera, Serafino Cicerone, Gianlorenzo D'Angelo, Gabriele Di Stefano, and Daniele Frigioni

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 7, 7th Workshop on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modeling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS'07) (2007)


Abstract
In railways systems the timetable is typically represented as a weighted digraph on which itinerary queries are answered by shortest path algorithms, usually running Dijkstra's algorithm. Due to the continuously growing size of real-world graphs, there is a constant need for faster algorithms and many techniques have been devised to heuristically speed up Dijkstra's algorithm. One of these techniques is the multi-level overlay graph, that has been recently introduced and shown to be experimentally efficient, especially when applied to timetable information. In many practical application major disruptions to the normal operation cannot be completely avoided because of the complexity of the underlying systems. Timetable information update after disruptions is considered one of the weakest points in current railway systems, and this determines the need for an effective online redesign and update of the shortest paths information as a consequence of disruptions. In this paper, we make a step forward toward this direction by showing some theoretical properties of multi-level overlay graphs that lead us to the definition of a new data structure for the dynamic maintenance of a multi-level overlay graph of a given graph G while weight decrease or weight increase operations are performed on G. Our solution is theoretically faster than the recomputation from scratch and allows fast queries.
