Optimal Truck Dispatching For Construction Waste Conveyance

Truck Dispatching and Fixed Driver Rest Locations

Graphical Conveyance of Knowledge amongst Construction Smes

Much of construction work is project-based, short-term and task-oriented; promoting a culture of continuous learning is inhibited. Very often, specialist and technical knowledge is not shared laterally, neither between fellow site personnel nor organisations. This is especially so for tacit knowledge, which site managers gain and use in solving their complex day-to-day problems. A research on k...

Bixby & Lee/truck Dispatching Scheduling Using Branch-and-cut

1 In this paper we present a branch-and-cut algorithm for a structured 0/1 integer programming problem referred to as the \truck dispatching scheduling (TDS) problem." The TDS problem is a vehicle routing and scheduling problem that arose from an oil company's desire to better utilize regional truck eets and drivers. Many studies on diierent variations of vehicle routing and scheduling have app...

Truck Scheduling for Waste Collection in Porto Alegre

This paper considers a truck scheduling problem in the context of solid waste collection in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The problem consists of designing ``good" daily truck schedules over a set of previously defined collection trips, on which the trucks collect the solid waste in fixed routes and empty the loads in one of the several operational recycling facilities in the system. The main objective...

Optimal Vehicle Dispatching Schemes via Dynamic Pricing

Over the past few years, ride-sharing has emerged as an e ective way to relieve tra c congestion. A key problem for these platforms is to come up with a revenue-optimal (or GMV-optimal) pricing scheme and an induced vehicle dispatching policy that incorporate geographic and temporal information. In this paper, we aim to tackle this problem via an economic approach. Modeled naively, the underlyi...
