Lissa Melis

  • Research Expertise  (University of Antwerp):My research investigates the development of scheduling algorithms, and particularly how efficient computer programs can be built to solve complex scheduling problems. My focus is on scheduling public transport services (on-demand bus transport, ride-sharing, integrated on-demand and fixed public transport, etc.), but these same optimization techniques can be used to schedule the transport of goods, like planning the routes of package or meal delivery services.
  • Disciplines  (Hasselt University):Operations research and mathematical programming, Intelligent transportation systems, Public transportation, Transport design, Transport planning, Business management
  • Disciplines  (University of Antwerp):Applied economics, Management, Mathematical and quantitative methods, Other social sciences, Other computer engineering, information technology and mathematical engineering not elsewhere classified
  • Research techniques  (University of Antwerp):Heuristics, meta-heuristics, operations research, optimization techniques
