Title:

Minimizing the Traffic Impact Caused by Infrastructure Maintenance Using Ant Colony Optimization

Author(s):
Lukas, K.; Borrmann, A.
Abstract:
Maintenance measures at infrastructural buildings such as bridges or tunnels in urban areas always have influence on the traffic flow. Finding a schedule that keeps this impact as low as possible by considering the mutual interaction between several road closures is a highly complex optimization problem. In a current research project we have developed an optimization tool to solve this problem based on ant colony optimization. Over a number of iterations teams of ants construct maintenance sched...     »
