    Description: We describe the development of a test library for the rolling stock rotation problem with predictive maintenance (RSRP-PdM). Our approach involves the utilization of genuine timetables from a private German railroad company. The generated instances incorporate probability distribution functions for modeling the health states of the vehicles and the considered trips possess varying degradation functions. RSRP-PdM involves assigning trips to a fleet of vehicles and scheduling their maintenance based on their individual health states. The goal is to minimize the total costs consisting of operational costs and the expected costs associated with vehicle failures. The failure probability is dependent on the health states of the vehicles, which are assumed to be random variables distributed by a family of probability distributions. Each distribution is represented by the parameters characterizing it and during the operation of the trips, these parameters get altered. Our approach incorporates non-linear degradation functions to describe the inference of the parameters but also linear ones could be applied. The resulting instances consist of the timetables of the individual lines that use the same vehicle type. Overall, we employ these assumptions and utilize open-source data to create a library of instances with varying difficulty. Our approach is vital for evaluating and comparing algorithms designed to solve the RSRP-PdM.

    Description: We introduce the Targeted Multiobjective Dijkstra Algorithm (T-MDA), a label setting algorithm for the One-to-One Multiobjective Shortest Path (MOSP) Problem. It is based on the recently published Multiobjective Dijkstra Algorithm (MDA) and equips it with A*-like techniques. For any explored subpath, a label setting MOSP algorithm decides whether the subpath can be discarded or must be stored as part of the output. A major design choice is how to store subpaths from the moment they are first explored until the mentioned final decision can be made. The T-MDA combines the polynomially bounded size of the priority queue used in the MDA and alazy management of paths that are not in the queue. The running time bounds from the MDA remain valid. In practice, the T-MDA outperforms known algorithms from the literature and the increased memory consumption is negligible. In this paper, we benchmark the T-MDA against an improved version of the state of the art NAMOA∗drOne-to-One MOSP algorithm from the literature on a standard testbed.

    Description: In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for the k-Shortest Simple Paths (K-SSP) problem with an asymptotic running time matching the state of the art from the literature. It is based on a black-box algorithm due to Roditty and Zwick (2012) that solves at most 2k instances of the Second Shortest Simple Path (2-SSP) problem without specifying how this is done. We fill this gap using a novel approach: we turn the scalar 2-SSP into instances of the Biobjective Shortest Path problem. Our experiments on grid graphs and on road networks show that the new algorithm is very efficient in practice.

    Description: The Multiobjective Minimum Spanning Tree (MO-MST) problem is a variant of the Minimum Spanning Tree problem, in which the costs associated with every edge of the input graph are vectors. In this paper, we design a new dynamic programming MO-MST algorithm. Dynamic programming for a MO-MST instance leads to the definition of an instance of the One-to-One Multiobjective Shortest Path (MOSP) problem and both instances have equivalent solution sets. The arising MOSP instance is defined on a so called transition graph. We study the original size of this graph in detail and reduce its size using cost dependent arc pruning criteria. To solve the MOSP instance on the reduced transition graph, we design the Implicit Graph Multiobjective Dijkstra Algorithm (IG-MDA), exploiting recent improvements on MOSP algorithms from the literature. All in all, the new IG-MDA outperforms the current state of the art on a big set of instances from the literature. Our code and results are publicly available.

    Description: We study the solution of the rolling stock rotation problem with predictive maintenance (RSRP-PM) by an iterative refinement approach that is based on a state-expanded event-graph. In this graph, the states are parameters of a failure distribution, and paths correspond to vehicle rotations with associated health state approximations. An optimal set of paths including maintenance can be computed by solving an integer linear program. Afterwards, the graph is refined and the procedure repeated. An associated linear program gives rise to a lower bound that can be used to determine the solution quality. Computational results for two instances derived from real world timetables of a German railway company are presented. The results show the effectiveness of the approach and the quality of the solutions.

    Description: The Fairness-Oriented Crew Rostering Problem (FCRP) considers the joint optimization of attractiveness and fairness in cyclic crew rostering. Like many problems in scheduling and logistics, the combinatorial complexity of cyclic rostering causes exact methods to fail for large-scale practical instances. In case of the FCRP, this is accentuated by the additionally imposed fairness requirements. Hence, heuristic methods are necessary. We present a three-phase heuristic for the FCRP combining column generation techniques with variable-depth neighborhood search. The heuristic exploits different mathematical formulations to find feasible solutions and to search for improvements. We apply our methodology to practical instances from Netherlands Railways (NS), the main passenger railway operator in the Netherlands Our results show the three-phase heuristic finds good solutions for most instances and outperforms a state-of-the-art commercial solver.
