A Hybrid Adaptive Large Neighborhood Heuristic for a Real-Life Dial-a-Ride Problem

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2019
The transportation of elderly and impaired people is commonly solved as a Dial-A-Ride Problem (DARP). The DARP aims to design pick-up and delivery vehicle routing schedules.

Improved Approximation Algorithm for Steiner k-Forest with Nearly Uniform Weights [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the Steiner k-Forest problem we are given an edge weighted graph, a collection D of node pairs, and an integer k leq |D|. The goal is to find a minimum cost subgraph that connects at least k pairs.

The Dial-a-Ride Problem with Split Requests and Profits [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Science, 2015
In this paper we introduce the dial-a-ride problem with split requests and profits (DARPSRP). Users place transportation requests, specifying a pickup location, a delivery location, and a time window for either of the two. Based on maximum user ride time considerations, the second time window is generated.

The Dial-a-Ride Problem with School Bell Time Adjustment

open access: yesTransportation Science, 2023
In this paper, we study a paratransit application in which children are transported every day from their homes to their special schools or medical-social establishments. To optimize this transportation system, the establishments collaborate to propose a joint transportation plan.

A tight formulation for the dial-a-ride problem

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Operational Research
Ridepooling services play an increasingly important role in modern transportation systems. With soaring demand and growing fleet sizes, the underlying route planning problems become increasingly challenging. In this context, we consider the dial-a-ride problem (DARP): Given a set of transportation requests with pick-up and delivery locations, passenger

How FDI reshapes host markets’ trade profile and politics

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A fast‐growing literature indicates that firms’ engagement in foreign direct investment (FDI) and trade is key to understanding deepening global value chains and their political implications. However, existing studies have mainly focused on the ramifications for FDI home countries while often overlooking the firm‐product level interactions ...

Subset‐Row Inequalities and Unreachability in Path‐Based Formulations for Vehicle Routing and Scheduling Problems

open access: yesNetworks, Volume 87, Issue 2, Page 111-130, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This work considers branch‐price‐and‐cut algorithms for variants of the vehicle‐routing problem in which subset‐row inequalities (SRIs) are used to strengthen the linear relaxation. SRIs often help to substantially reduce the size of the branch‐and‐bound search tree.

Maximizing Revenues for Online-Dial-a-Ride

open access: yes, 2013
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.

Innovative systems for the transportation disadvantaged: towards more efficient and operationally usable planning tools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
When considering innovative forms of public transport for specific groups, such as demand responsive services, the challenge is to find a good balance between operational efficiency and 'user friendliness' of the scheduling algorithm even when ...
