18. Airline Crew Scheduling with Time Windows and Plane-Count Constraints.

Abstract

Airline planning consists of several problems that are currently solved separately. We address a partial integration of schedule planning, aircraft routing, and crew scheduling. In particular, we provide more flexibility for crew scheduling while maintaining the feasibility of aircraft routing by adding plane-count constraints to the crew-scheduling problem. In addition, we assume that the departure times of flights have not yet been fixed and we are allowed to move the departure time of a flight as long as it is within a given time window. We demonstrate that such a model yields solutions to the crew-scheduling problem with significantly lower costs than those obtained from the traditional model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subjects
FLIGHT crews, AIRLINE industry, PRODUCTION scheduling, AIRPORTS, GOAL (Psychology), COST, ALGORITHMS, PROBLEM solving
Abstract

The airline crew scheduling problem is the problem of assigning crew itineraries to flights. The problem is hard due to a large number of itineraries and the complicated cost function of an itinerary. The classic approach, which uses a set partitioning formulation, only captures the objective function of minimizing cost. We add a second goal of maximizing the repetition or regularity of itineraries over a weekly horizon and we develop models that capture regularity. We present a new algorithm that solves the crew scheduling problem over a weekly horizon. Solutions are reported that improve on existing solutions used by an airline. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article presents an interview with financial risk consultant and author Nassim Nicholas Taleb. Taleb says the title of his book "The Black Swan" refers to an unpredictable event. He explains how some businesses are more exposed to the effects of these events than others. He calls the subprime crisis a "grey swan" because it was partially predictable. When asked to assess the effectiveness of Wall Street's risk management, he says the 'science' of risk models has replaced common sense.
