Usability of dial-a-ride systems

Proceedings of the fourth international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems, 2005
A case study of usability of dial-a-ride bus systems is reported. We conduct a social simulation to compare efficiencies of the dial-a-ride bus systems, one of possible multi-agent applications, and traditional fixed-route bus systems. Simulation results indicated that dial-a-ride systems are reasonable for large cities but their advantage depends on ...

Disruption Management for Dial-A-Ride Systems

IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine, 2020
Mobility on demand has been gaining more attention from the research community as a way to offer smart and efficient transportation services to people. Despite the advancements in vehicular technologies, vehicle breakdown (VB) remains one of the major contributors to the disruption of fleet operations, which may inflict large recovery costs and damage ...

DIAL‐A‐RIDE

Journal of Consumer Studies & Home Economics, 1983
One of the worst things about being disabled is the loneliness. Able‐bodied people do not have to wait for busy friends to find time to visit them. They can get on to a bus or a tube or a train and go visiting, or to the shops or a cinema or club, as the mood takes them. If you are in a wheelchair, you can't.

Dial-a-ride round Europe

International Disability Studies, 1987
ERICA (European Research Into Consumer Affairs) is engaged in research into problems faced, notably by the underprivileged, in the countries of the European Economic Community (EEC). An early project investigated dial-a-ride systems for the transport of disabled people in six EEC countries.

A Matheuristic for the Dial-a-Ride Problem

2011
The Dial-a-Ride is a transport system on demand. A fleet of vehicles, without fixed routes and schedules, carries people from their pickup points to their delivery points, during a pre-specified time interval. It can be modeled as an N P-hard routing and scheduling problem, with a suitable mixed integer programming formulation. Exact approaches to this

The finite capacity dial-a-ride problem

Proceedings 39th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (Cat. No.98CB36280), 2002
We give the first non-trivial approximation algorithm for the Capacitated Dial-a-Ride problem: given a collection of objects located at points in a metric space, a specified destination point for each object, and a vehicle with a capacity of at most k objects, the goal is to compute a shortest tour for the vehicle in which all objects can be delivered ...

Dial/a/ride: a review

Transportation Planning and Technology, 1980
Although as originally conceived demand responsive transport (drt) systems offered a many-to-many capability with complex computerised control, more recent developments have offered simpler, manually controlled, systems. From the introduction of the first UK drt systems in 1972 it is possible to observe three broad categories of drt: first generation ...

Customers' satisfaction in a dial-a-ride problem

IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine, 2009
This paper presents a general model for a dial-a-ride problem and a Simulated Annealing approach to solve it focusing on the quality of service. The model includes several distinct cases of the real problems and an objective function that treats transportation costs and customer's inconveniences. The routes are clustered and scheduled in a separate way
