MSc

Master of Science in Informatics

Title obtained from Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, located at Vitória (ES), Brazil on April, 2004, with dissertation titled "ANT COLONY COMPETITION APPLIED TO SWITCH ENGINE ASSIGNMENT IN RAILROAD YARDS (translated)" under the supervision of Dra. Lucia Catabriga.

The dissertation proposes a meta-heuristic method based on a multiple ant colony optimization system to solve the problem of switch engines assignment in a railroad yard. According to the proposed modeling, the problem presented here is similar to the one known in the literature as a Full Truckload Pickup and Delivery Problem with Time Windows and Capacity Constraints (PDPTWC) and our objective is to fulfill a set of transportation requests with minimal cost, which is described as a multi-objective function. The specific characteristics of this problem are presented and a solution method based in the COMPETants algorithm is developed for the switch engine designation. The model validation and the estimated cost reduction with the implementation of the algorithm proposed is done based on a real life case study.
