About the Book

This volume consists of papers presented at the Fifth International Workshop on Computer­ Aided Scheduling of Public Transport, which was held in Montreal from August 19th to the 23rd, 1990. Since the first Workshop in Chicago in 1975 the field had matured considerably. In 1975, there were no presentations that described systems which had been implemented and used on a regular basis. By 1980, in Leeds, and certainly by 1983, in Montreal, several systems were in regular use. They were based on both heuristics and mathematical programming techniques. In 1990, there were more than one hundred transit companies using computer-aided scheduling tools in their regular operations. The scope of the Workshop was broadened in 1987, in Hamburg, so that topics related to scheduling may be introduced. We find, for example, in this book several papers on the technology related to the collection of data and/or the data bases required for scheduling and planning activities.

Table of Contents:
I: Status updates on scheduling packages.- Developments and recent experience with the BUSMAN and BUSMAN II systems.- The HASTUS system: New algorithms and modules for the 90s.- II: Problems and experiences from transit.- Århus public transport’s innovative rostering technique.- Developing transit scheduling tools using an “object-oriented” programming language.- Experience of using the same computerised scheduling system under three different operating conditions.- Work rule flexibility: Method to reduce PTO requirements.- Development of performance indicators using vehicle and crew scheduling data bases.- III: Bus scheduling.- Time and space scheduling of public transport networks and the evaluation of quality of service.- Scheduling considerations in designing transit routes at the network level.- Network design formulations in schedule synchronization.- SYNCRO: A computer-assisted tool for the synchronization of transfers in public transit networks.- Multiple depot vehicle scheduling problem: A new heuristic based on quasi-assignment algorithms.- An approach to vehicle scheduling with depot capacity constraints.- Optimization in bus scheduling — driver constraints deadheading estimation and size advantage.- Real-time scheduling on a transit bus route.- IV: Technology and data collection for scheduling and planning.- Improving computer-aided scheduling by cashless payment system FAHRSMART.- The use of automatic passenger counting data to verify schedule adherence.- Automatic passenger counting data: Better schedules improve on-time performance.- Flexible operation command & control system (FOCCS) with vehicle-autonomous schedule control and synchronisation.- V: Data bases for planning and scheduling.- Towards a European standard for scheduling.- Commondatabase for different scheduling tools.- The integration of computer-aided systems for planning and operational control in public transit.- VI: Crew scheduling.- EXPRESS: Set partitioning for bus crew scheduling in Christchurch.- Driver scheduling using intelligent estimation techniques with heuristic searches.- CREW-OPT: Subproblem modeling in a column generation approach to urban crew scheduling.- A new decomposition scheme of the urban public transport scheduling problem.- Appendix 1.- Appendix 2.
