Operational transport planning with incidents

This research addresses robust incident management techniques in distributed environments with autonomous actors. Focusing on applications in operational pickup and delivery transportation planning, the distributed environment consists of a transport network, vehicles controlled by operational agents and pickup and delivery tasks with time-windows. The two main challenges of this research are t...

Operational airline reserve crew planning

Airlines are continually faced with the challenge of efficient utilization of their cockpit crew resources. In addition to regular flying crews, some airlines have to maintain significant reserve staffing levels to meet contractual obligations and provide smooth daily operations. Reserve crews are required to cover trips remaining unassigned due to disruptions during daily operations. Airlines ...

A Stochastic Operational Planning Model for Smart Power Systems

Smart Grids are result of utilizing novel technologies such as distributed energy resources, and communication technologies in power system to compensate some of its defects. Various power resources provide some benefits for operation domain however, power system operator should use a powerful methodology to manage them. Renewable resources and load add uncertainty to the problem. So, independe...

Using TimeNET to Evaluate Operational Planning Processes

In this paper we bridge the gap between performance evaluation and the modelling of business processes. On the basis of a case study from the field of operational planning processes we investigate the performance evaluation of human resource management processes. In particular we consider the affect of timing in operational planning processes. We use TimeNET for modelling. It provides methods n...
