In the paper, a school bus routing problem, its mathematical models and solution methods are investigated. The aim of the study is to search for school bus routing problem and its solution method and to apply them for a sample case study. The case study concerns the routing and scheduling of school buses in an exemplary, well-recognized school located in one of Polish community. The problem is ...

• Electrification of bus fleets in most cities is expected to rise. The planning process has be adapted support the use electric buses. An overview problems at different stages given. Approaches solve vehicle scheduling problem are reviewed. Integrated recognized as a future area research. rise due its significant environmental benefits. However, buses have limited driving range and long rechar...

In this article, we study the school bus routing and scheduling problem with transfers arising in the field of nonperiodic public transportation systems. It deals with the transportation of pupils from home to their school in the morning taking the possibility that pupils may change buses into account. Allowing transfers has several consequences. On the one hand, it allows more flexibility in t...

The traditional urban public transport system generally cannot provide an effective access service for people with disabilities, especially for disabled, wheelchair and blind (DWB) passengers. In this paper, based on advanced information & communication technologies (ICT) and green technologies (GT) concepts, a dedicated public urban transportation service access system named Mobi+ has been int...

This study presented a new data link layer design for the virtual bus architecture. The virtual bus is a hierarchical access network offered a broadcast capability for data and signaling. The proposed of the study is to support Quality of Service (QoS) in network. During study, the most promising technology capable of delivering full service access at high data rates is Synchronous Digital Hier...

To achieve the promising potentials by using tremendous distributed resources, effective and efficient scheduling algorithms are fundamentally important. Scheduling such applications is challenging because target resources are heterogeneous, their load and availability varies dynamically. Previous parallel system was assumed to be organized with homogeneous platform and connected via memory, bu...
