The on-demand bus routing problem with real-time traffic information
Multimodal Transportation, 2023 We propose to solve a real-time traffic variation of the On-Demand Bus Routing Problem (ODBRP) introduced by Melis and Sörensen (2022). The ODBRP belongs to the category of the Dial-A-Ride Problems (DARP), and features departure and arrival bus station ...

Maximizing Revenues for On-Line Dial-a-Ride
, 2014 In the classic Dial-a-Ride Problem, a server travels in some metric space to serve requests for rides. Each request has a source, destination, and release time. We study a variation of this problem where each request also has a revenue that is earned if the request is satisfied.

Leveraging Public Transit for Robotic Deliveries: A Column Generation Approach
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are small, electric, wheeled vehicles that operate at pedestrian speeds. In the last‐mile delivery service considered in this study, a fleet of AMRs is deployed across multiple recharging depots within a service area, from which they depart to perform point‐to‐point deliveries. We consider an operational setting

Difference‐Making Under Metaphysical Indeterminacy
Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Many of the most pressing moral problems we face involve collective harms generated by large numbers of individually insignificant actions. Unlike triggering cases—where a threshold exists such that a single act could be decisive—non‐triggering cases lack any such sharp cutoff.

Semi‐automated MicroED system unveils multiple polymorphs in fish‐derived guanine crystals
Acta Crystallographica Section C, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 310-323, July 2026.A semi‐automated MicroED data collection and processing system was established and shown to be suitable for the structural investigation of submicrometer‐scale biogenic crystals.Certain fish display silvery or blue colour, not through pigments, but through specialized guanine crystals that exist within iridophore cells in their skin. Within these cells,
