Heuristic concentration and tabu search : a nose to nose comparison

Rosing, K. E.; ReVelle, C. S. - 1997

In 1997 two papers new applying the metaheuristics Tabu Search (TS) and Heuristic Concentration (HC) tothe p-median problem were published in consecutive volumes of the European Journal of OperationalResearch. Here we apply the method of HC some of the data sets which were used for...

Welfare effects of distortionary tax incentives under preference heterogeneity : an application to employer-provided electric cars

Dimitropoulos, Alexandros; Ommeren, Jos van; Koster, Paul; … - 2014

This paper presents an approach for the estimation of welfare effects of tax policy changes under heterogeneity in consumer preferences. The approach is applied to evaluate the welfare effects of current tax advantages for electric vehicles supplied as fringe benefits by employers. Drawing on...

Solving discrete zero point problems with vector labeling

Laan, Gerard van der; Talman, Dolf; Yang, Zaifu - 2005

In this paper we present two general results on the existence of a discrete zero point of a function from the n-dimensional integer lattice Zn to the n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. Under two different boundary conditions, we give a constructive proof using a combinatorial argument based on a...

Robot cars and dynamic bottleneck congestion : the effects on capacity, value of time and preference heterogeneity

Berg, Vincent A. C. van den; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2015 - This version: 9 June 2015

"Robot cars" are cars that allow for automated driving. They can drive closer together than human driven "normal cars" and thereby raise road capacity. Obtaining a robot car instead of a normal car can also be expected to lower the userś value of time losses (VOT), because travel time can be...

Speed choice, car following theory and congestion tolling

Rouwendal, Jan - 2002 - This version: September 25, 2002

This paper provides a link between car following theory and the economic theoryof road congestion by means of a theory … of speed choice. According to this theory speedchoice is based on a trade-off between the benefits (shorter travel time … elaborating this relationship a number of car-following models can be derived fromthis theory of speed choice. Wit homogeneous …

The willingness to pay for quality aspects of durables : theory and application to the car market

Mulalic, Ismir; Rouwendal, Jan - 2010 - This version: December 24, 2010

Conventional hedonic analysis measures willingness to pay for attributes on the basis of marginal fixed costs. We argue that in many cases variable costs are also affected by these attributes and that this should be taken into account. We develop a simple model to show that the marginal...

Autonomous cars and activitybased bottleneck model : how do in-vehicle activities determine aggregate travel patterns?

Yu, Xiaojuan; Berg, Vincent A. C. van den; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2022

When traveling in an autonomous car, the travel time can be used for performing activities other than driving. This paper distinguishes users' work-related and home-related activities in autonomous cars and proposes an activity-based bottleneck model to investigate travelers' behavior in the...
