Abstract
In a context of increasing competition and sustainable development, service prices and unused capacity enhancement play a crucial role in freight or people transportation management. The focus of the paper is on a Dial-a-ride Problem in the Saharan country context, for the particular of Taxi “woro-woro”1. More precisely, these taxis help to transport groups of people without any affinity, from point A to point B without stopping. Also, we propose for this problem an exact solution based on a mix integer program (MIP). A secondary study on a random instance generation algorithm is presented, which allows us to have a diversified and varied benchmark on which to apply our MIP program.
Highlights
The establishment of a coordinated and cost-effective transport system for “woro-woro” taxis is of particular importance in a booming economic sector.Transport services of the “woro-woro” type allow the intra and inter-city circulation of people from various fields of activity
