A GRASP-based Approach for Demand Responsive Transportation
International Journal of Transportation, 2014 Demand Responsive Transportation (DRT) systems try to provide quality public transportation in low, variable and unpredictable demand scenarios, with routes and frequencies that may vary according to observed demand, possibly in real-time. The design and operation of DRTs involve multiple criteria and have a combinatorial nature that prevents the use ...

On optimizing a demand responsive transport with an evolutionary multi-objective approach [PDF]
13th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2010 This paper deals with a dial-a-ride problem with time windows applied to a demand responsive transport service. An evolutionary approach as well as new original representation and variation operators are proposed and detailed. Such mechanisms are used with three state-of-the-art multi-objective evolutionary algorithms: NSGA-II, IBEA and SPEA2.

A Survey on Demand-Responsive Transportation for Rural and Interurban Mobility.
International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence, 2023 Rural areas have been marginalized when it comes to flexible, quality transportation research. This review article brings together papers that discuss, analyze, model, or experiment with demand-responsive transportation systems applied to rural settlements and interurban transportation, discussing their general feasibility as well as the most ...

A demand-responsive decision support system for coal transportation [PDF]
Decision Support Systems, 2012 In this paper, a demand-responsive decision support system is proposed by integrating the operations of coal shipment, coal stockpiles and coal railing within a whole system. A generic and flexible scheduling optimisation methodology is developed to identify, represent, model, solve and analyse the coal transport problem in a standard and convenient ...
