Abstract/Summary

This thesis presents some formulations of the Airline Crew Scheduling Problem and their analysis. Airline Crew-Scheduling is one of the most important applications of Set Partitioning Problem, which is a special case of Set Covering Problem.

The paper shows the two methods of crew-scheduling: (i) partitioning the set of flights by a set of pairings, and (ii) partitioning the set of flights by a set of duty periods, then partitioning the set of duty periods by a set of pairings are the same.

The proposition and formulations were taken from the articles of Vance et. al., Airline Crew-Scheduling: A New Decomposition Algorithm . The researchers provided the analysis of the formulations in the problem based on the outputs generated by LINDO.
