Integrated Dynamic Vehicle and Crew Scheduling Using Multi-Agent System
Vehicle and crew scheduling problem is remarkably difficult to solve because of the large number of resources that need to be allocated, very complex rules for the allocation of crew shifts, high cost of overtime and unpredictability of the urban traffic and crew availability.

Summary: | Vehicle and crew scheduling problem is remarkably
difficult to solve because of the large number of resources
that need to be allocated, very complex rules for the
allocation of crew shifts, high cost of overtime and
unpredictability of the urban traffic and crew availability.
This article proposes a Multi-Agent System (ll/MS) approach
to solve integrated dynamic vehicle and crew scheduling
problems. MAS are capable of real-time scheduling and
dynamic re-scheduling whenever unpredictable events and
change of resources or demands occurs. This paper
proposes a conceptual framework for an integrated and
dynamic vehicle and crew scheduling by using the concept
of MAS. |
