Optimal timetable development for community shuttle network with metro stations
Two constraints, i.e., vehicle loading and fleet size, are considered in the problem. A timetable generating method under the fleet size constraint is proposed. An algorithm, called FW-SDT, is proposed to solve the problem. FW-SDT is suitable for any continuous passengers arrival distribution. FW-SDT outperforms GA in both accuracy and effectiveness.
