OASIS: An integrated optimisation framework for activity scheduling

Activity-based models offer the potential for a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. Based on the fundamental assumption that travel demand is derived from the need to do activities, they are flexible tools that aim ...

Process modeling and integration of hydrogen and synthetic natural gas production in a kraft pulp mill via black liquor gasification

François Maréchal, Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Meire Ellen Gorete Ribeiro Domingos

The black liquor gasification integrated to chemical plants has shown potential for reducing the process irreversibility and promoting the decarbonization of this industrial sector. In the integrated chemical plants proposed in this work, the purpose is co ...

Capturing trade-offs between daily scheduling choices

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

We propose a new modelling approach for daily activity scheduling which integrates the different daily scheduling choice dimensions (activity participation, location, schedule, duration and transportation mode) into a single optimisation problem. The funda ...

Optimization and equilibrium problems with discrete choice models

Stefano Bortolomiol

Many transportation markets are characterized by oligopolistic competition. In these markets customers, suppliers and regulators make decisions that are influenced by the preferences and the decisions of all other agents. In particular, capturing and under ...

Price-based regulation of oligopolistic markets under discrete choice models of demand

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Stefano Bortolomiol

We propose a framework to find optimal price-based policies to regulate markets characterized by oligopolistic competition and in which consumers make a discrete choice among a finite set of alternatives. With this framework, we can include general discret ...

Resolving time conflicts in activity-based scheduling

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

In this paper, we present a novel activity-based scheduling model that combines a continuous optimisation framework for temporal scheduling decisions (i.e. activity timings and durations) with traditional discrete choice models for non-temporal choice dime ...

Resolving time conflicts in activity-based scheduling: A case study of Lausanne

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

In this paper, we present a novel activity-based scheduling model that combines a continuous optimisation framework for temporal scheduling decisions (i.e. activity timings and durations) with traditional discrete choice models for non-temporal choice dime ...

Integrating advanced discrete choice models in mixed integer linear optimization

Michel Bierlaire, Bernard Gendron

In many transportation systems, a mismatch between the associated design and planning decisions and the demand is typically encountered. A tailored system is not only appealing to operators, which could have a better knowledge of their operational costs, b ...

Scheduling trips through a bottleneck: monotonicity and stability

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

This paper investigates the stability of departure time choice within a population of commuters that need to pass through a bottleneck of constant capacity. It is shown that the corresponding utility function is monotonic if and only if the marginal utilit ...
