The Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP): Variants, modeling issues and algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP) consists of designing vehicle routes and schedules for n users who specify pick-up and drop-off requests between origins and destinations. The aim is to plan a set of m minimum cost vehicle routes capable of accommodating asmany users as possible, under a set of constraints. The most common example arises in door-to-door transportation for elderly or disabled people. The purpose of this article is to review the scientific literature on the DARP. The main features of the problem are described and classified and some modeling issues are discussed. A summary of the most important algorithms is provided.

Parallel Tabu search heuristics for the dynamic multi-vehicle dial-a-ride problem
In the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP) users specify transportation requests between origins and destinations to be served by vehicles. In the Dynamic DARP, requests are received throughout the day and the primary objective is to accept as many requests as possible while satisfying operational constraints. This article describes and compares a number of parallel implementations of a tabu search heur...
متن کاملConstraint Propagation for the Dial-a-Ride Problem with Split Loads
This paper deals with a new problem: the Dial and Ride Problem with Split Loads (DARPSL), while using randomized greedy insertion techniques together with constraint propagation techniques. Though it focuses here on the static versions of Dial and Ride, it takes into account the fact that practical DARP has to be handled according to a dynamical point of view, and even, in some case, in real ti...
متن کاملChecking the Feasibility of Dial-a-Ride Instances Using Constraint Programming
In the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP), a fleet of vehicles must serve transportation requests made by users that need to be transported from an origin to a destination. In this paper we develop the first exact algorithm which is able to either efficiently prove the infeasibility or to provide a feasible solution. Such an algorithm could be used in a dynamic setting for determining whether it is pos...
متن کاملOnline Dial-A-Ride Problem with Time Windows: An Exact Algorithm Using Status Vectors
The Dial-A-Ride Problem (DARP) has often been used to organize transport of elderly and handicapped people, assuming that these people can book their transport in advance. But the DARP can also be used to organize usual passenger or goods transportation in real online scenarios with time window constraints. This paper presents an efficient exact algorithm with significantly reduced calculation ...
متن کاملSimple Temporal Problems in Route Scheduling for the Dial-a-Ride Problem with Transfers
The Dial–A–Ride Problem (DARP) consists in defining a set of routes that satisfy transportation requests between a set of pickup points and a set of delivery points. This paper addresses a variant of the DARP where requests can change of vehicle during their trip. This transshipment is made on specific locations called “transfer points”. The corresponding problem is called the Dial–A–Ride Probl...
