Research On Coordination And Optimization Method Of Vehicle And Crew Scheduling Based On IC Card Data

With the rapid development of the economic and speeding up of the urbanization and motorization process,urban traffic congestion is becoming more and more serious and has severely affected the city’s sustainable development. Giving priority to the development of public transport is the need of economic and social development and is the inevitable choice to solve the traffic problem in big cities.Whether the urban public traffic system can operate normally and efficiently not only depends on roads and traffic facilities conditions, but also depends on operation management means and the advanced technology.Based on the analysis of the present situation of the domestic and foreign research and with a combined consideration of the objective and constraints of the vehicle and crew scheduling, the paper built up the vehicle and crew scheduling coordinated optimization model with the objective function of minimizing the total cost of vehicle and crew. Through the analysis of IC card data, establish the cross section flow, and based on this calculate departure intervals to determine the schedule. Then, optimize the model to be more realistic, considering the Chinese realities-assigning crew system. The paper used LINGO to solve the model and verified the algorithms’efficiency through an example. The paper not only realized vehicle scheduling under responsible crew system of China by constraint conditions, but also considered two kinds of crew type. And the paper limited dwell time of the first and last stops to increase effective work time.
