Prepositioning can improve the performance of a dynamic stochastic on-demand public bus system Universiteit Antwerpen
This paper presents the first application of prepositioning in the context of the dynamic stochastic on-demand bus routing problem (DODBRP). The DODBRP is a large-scale dial-a-ride problem that involves bus station assignment and aims to minimize the total user ride time (URT) by simultaneously assigning passengers to alternative stations and determining optimal bus routes.In the DODBRP, transportation requests are introduced dynamically, and ...
