Bei Störungen in einem Flugplan einer Fluggesellschaft werden je nach verfügbarer Zeit unterschiedliche Lösungsansätze angewendet. Aus dieser Problemstellung ergibt sich die Frage, wie ein reaktives Planungsverfahren für unterschiedliche Zielsetzungen in Abhängigkeit der Zeit aussehen...

In this paper, a novel methodology is proposed to solve a cooperative multi-depot vehicle routing problem. We establish a mathematical model for multi-owner VRP in which each owner (i.e. player) manages single or multiple depots. The basic idea consists of offering an option that owners...

During the last decade, the stringent pressures from environmental and social requirements have spurred an interest in designing a reverse logistics (RL) network. The success of a logistics system may depend on the decisions of the facilities locations and vehicle routings. The location-routing...

This paper develops an MILP model, named Satisfactory-Green Vehicle Routing Problem. It consists of routing a heterogeneous fleet of vehicles in order to serve a set of customers within predefined time windows. In this model in addition to the traditional objective of the VRP, both the pollution...

The present paper studies a generalization of the less-than-truckload pickup and delivery problem. The problem at hand arises in the hinterland of container terminal where empty and loaded containers have to be transported between a container depot and a set of customer locations. However,...

Container liner shipping, shipping network, network design, network structure, ship deployment. - This thesis studies network design in container liner shipping by concentrating on four research questions: - How were operational patterns deployed in route design? - How was container shipping...

The focus of this thesis is to contribute to the development of new, exact solution approaches to different combinatorial optimization problems. In particular, we derive dedicated algorithms for a special class of Traveling Tournament Problems (TTPs), the Dial-A-Ride Problem (DARP), and the...
