This study offers an organisation theory approach arguing that the differentiated organisatational constellation of the European Union contributes to a differentiated penetration of domestic government decision-making processes. It is argued that the European Commission mainly activates the...

The integral simplex method for set partitioning problems allows only pivots-on-one to be made, which results in a primal all-integer method. In this technical note we outline how to tailor the column generation principle to this method. Because of the restriction to pivots-on-one, only local...

We consider the separable nonlinear and strictly convex single-commodity network flow problem (SSCNFP). We develop a computational scheme for generating a primal feasible solution from any Lagrangian dual vector; this is referred to as "early primal recovery". It is motivated by the desire to...

We present a column generation procedure for the side constrained traffic equilibrium problem. A dual stabilization scheme is introduced to improve the computational performance. Computational experiments for the case of linear side constraints are presented. The test problems are well known...

As a means to obtain a more accurate description of traffic flows than that provided by the basic model of traffic assignment, there have been suggestions to impose upper bounds on the link flows. This can be done either by introducing explicit link capacities or by employing travel time...

We consider the introduction of side constraints for refining a descriptive or prescriptive traffic equilibrium assignment model, and analyze a general such a model. Side constraints can be introduced for several diverse reasons; we consider three basic ones. First, they can be used to describe...
