A Game-Theoretic Approach to Line Planning
Abstract
We present a game-theoretic model for the line planning problem
in public transportation, in which each line acts as player and aims to
minimize a cost function which is related to the traffic along its edges.
We analyze the model and in particular show that a potential function exists.
Based on this result, we present a method for calculating equilibria and
present first numerical results using the railway network
of {it Deutsche Bahn}.

An Efficient MIP Model for Locomotive Scheduling with Time Windows
Abstract
This paper presents an IP model for a vehicle routing and scheduling
problem from the domain of freight railways. The problem is non-capacitated
but allows non-binary integer flows of vehicles between transports
with departure times variable within fixed intervals. The model has
been developed with and has found practical use at Green Cargo, the
largest freight rail operator in Sweden.

Freight Service Design for the Italian Railways Company
Abstract
In this paper, we present a mathematical model to design
the service network, that is the set of origin-destination
connections. The resulting model considers both full and empty
freight car movements, and takes into account handling costs. More
specifically, the model suggests the services to provide, as well
as the number of trains and the number and type of cars traveling
on each connection. Quality of service, which is measured as total
travel time, is established by minimizing the waiting time of cars
at intermediate stations.
Our approach yields a multi-commodity network design problem with
concave arc cost functions. To solve this problem, we implement a
tabu search procedure which adopts ``perturbing'' mechanisms to
force the algorithm to explore a larger portion of the feasible
region. Computational results on realistic instances show a
significant improvement over current practice.

Locomotive and Wagon Scheduling in Freight Transport
Abstract
We present a new model for a strategic locomotive scheduling problem
arising at the Deutsche Bahn AG. The model is based on a
multi-commodity min-cost flow formulation that is also used for
public bus scheduling problems. However, several new aspects have to
be additionally taken into account, such as cyclic departures of the
trains, time windows on starting and arrival times, network-load
dependend travel times, and a transfer of wagons between trains. The
model is formulated as an integer programming problem, and solutions
are obtained using commercial standard software. Computational
results for several test instances are presented.

Periodic Metro Scheduling
Abstract
We introduce the { extsc{Periodic Metro Sched-ul-ing}} ({ extsc{PMS}}) problem,
which aims in generating a
periodic timetable for a given set of routes and a given time
period, in such a way that the minimum time distance between any two
successive trains that pass from the same point of the network is
maximized. This can be particularly useful in cases where trains use
the same rail segment quite often, as happens in metropolitan rail
networks.
We present exact algorithms for ({ extsc{PMS}}) in chain and spider networks,
and constant ratio approximation algorithms for ring networks and
for a special class of tree networks. Some of our algorithms are
based on a reduction to the { extsc{Path Coloring}} problem, while others rely on
techniques specially designed for the new problem.

QoS-aware Multicommodity Flows and Transportation Planning
Abstract
We consider the emph{QoS-aware Multicommodity Flow} problem, a
natural generalization of the weighted multicommodity flow problem
where the demands and commodity values are elastic to the
Quality-of-Service characteristics of the underlying network. The
problem is fundamental in transportation planning and also has
important applications beyond the transportation domain. We
provide a FPTAS for the QoS-aware Multicommodity Flow problem by
building upon a Lagrangian relaxation method and a recent FPTAS
for the non-additive shortest path problem.

Robustness and Recovery in Train Scheduling - a Case Study from DSB S-tog a/s
Abstract
This paper presents a simulation model to study the robustness of
timetables of DSB S-tog a/s, the city rail of Copenhagen. Dealing with
rush hour scenarios only, the simulation model
investigates the effects of disturbances
on the S-tog network. Several timetables are analyzed with respect
to robustness. Some of these are used in operation and some are generated
for the purpose of investigating timetables with specific alternative
characteristics.
