A rational decentralized generalized Nash equilibrium seeking for energy markets

Matteo Salani, Lorenzo Nespoli, Vasco Medici

We propose a method to design a decentralized energy market which guarantees individual rationality (IR) in expectation, in the presence of system-level grid constraints. We formulate the market as a welfare maximization problem subject to IR constraints, ...

An integrated airline scheduling, fleeting and pricing model for a monopolized market

Michel Bierlaire, Matteo Salani, Bilge Atasoy

In airline schedule planning models, the demand and price information are usually taken as inputs to the model. Therefore, schedule and capacity decisions are taken separately from pricing decisions. In this article, we present an integrated scheduling, fl ...

Impact analysis of a flexible air transportation system

Michel Bierlaire, Claudio Leonardi, Matteo Salani, Bilge Atasoy

The paper provides analytical evidence of the added-value of flexibility for air transportation systems. More specifically, the impact of a new innovative modular aircraft on the operations of an airline is deeply analyzed. The impact analysis is carried o ...

An exact algorithm for the integrated planning of berth allocation and quay crane assignment

Michel Bierlaire, Matteo Salani, Ilaria Vacca

In this paper we study the simultaneous optimization of berth allocation and quay crane assignment in seaport container terminals. We propose a model based on an exponential number of variables that is solved via column generation. An exact branch and pric ...

Integrated schedule planning with supply-demand interactions for a new generation of aircrafts

Michel Bierlaire, Matteo Salani, Bilge Atasoy

We present an integrated schedule planning model where the décisions of schedule design, fleeting and pricing are made simultaneously. Pricing is integrated through a logit demand model where itinerary choice is modeled by defining the utilities of the alt ...

Branch and Price for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Discrete Split Deliveries and Time Windows

Matteo Salani, Ilaria Vacca

The Discrete Split Delivery Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (DSDVRPTW) consists of designing the optimal set of routes to serve, at least cost, a given set of customers while respecting constraints on vehicles' capacity and customer time windows. ...

Uncertainty Feature Optimization: an implicit paradigm for problems with noisy data

Michel Bierlaire, Matteo Salani, Niklaus Eggenberg

Optimization problems with noisy data solved using stochastic programming or robust optimization approaches require the explicit characterization of an uncertainty set U that models the nature of the noise. Such approaches depend on the modeling of the unc ...

A column generation algorithm for the vehicle routing problem with soft time windows

Matteo Salani

The Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows consists of computing a minimum cost set of routes for a fleet of vehicles of limited capacity visiting a given set of customers with known demand, with the additional constraint that each customer must be visi ...

Modeling and Solving the Tactical Berth Allocation Problem

Matteo Salani, Ilaria Vacca

In this paper we integrate at the tactical level two decision problems arising in container terminals: the berth allocation problem, which consists of assigning and scheduling incoming ships to berthing positions, and the quay crane assignment problem, whi ...
