In 1921 Sir Berkeley Moynihan invited 28 surgeons to come to Leeds with the intention of forming a club of members 'in practice not associated with teaching hospitals'. In 1909 he had founded a similar club to unite surgeons practising in provincial teaching hospitals and the success of this club encouraged him in the new venture. These two Moynihan foundations may have been the first travellin...

Computing Multimodal Journeys in Practice

We study the problem of finding multimodal journeys in transportation networks, including unrestricted walking, driving, cycling, and schedule-based public transportation. A natural solution to this problem is to use multicriteria search, but it tends to be slow and to produce too many journeys, several of which are of little value. We propose algorithms to compute a full Pareto set and then sc...
