This research investigates the strategic design of bus line networks by incorporating the operational objectives and constraints relevant to network operators. Drawing on industry expertise from a public transportation software company, we formulate the problem as a line planning optimization...

In stochastic lot sizing subject to dynamic and random demand, the minimization of operational costs is not the only conceivable objective. Minimizing the tardiness in customer demand satisfaction is no less important. Furthermore, the decision maker is interested in production plan stability....
