A heuristic procedure for one dimensional bin packing problem with additional constraints
(2010-03-31)
We proposed a heuristic algorithm to solve the one-dimensional bin-packing problem
with additional constraints. The proposed algorithm has been applied to solve a practical
vehicle-allocation problem. The experimental ...
Interactive GANTT charting: features,data structures and algorithms
(2010-03-18)
Gantt chart (or bar chart) is a popular tool for developing and displaying job schedules. This paper focuses on software that provides a Gantt chart interface to enable users develop job schedules interactively. Here the ...
Crew scheduling in Indian railways: a case study of Vadodara division passenger train crews
(2010-03-14)
In this paper we discuss the crew scheduling problem in Indian Railways and propose a methodology to minimize crew requirements. In Particular, we deal with the scheduling of passenger train crews in Vadodara Division of ...
Simulation models to evaluate railway operating policies
(2010-03-23)
In this paper, we describe two applications of simulation models to evaluate the following railway operating policies: 1. Loco assignment at a junction, and 2. Twin single line versus orthodox double line operation. The ...
