Abstract:This research focuses on creating a driver schedule while taking into account scheduling restrictions. We use Mixed Integer Linear Programming to formulate the problem, where we approach the scheduling restrictions mathematically. The objective of the model is to minimize the deviation between scheduled and contractual hours. We use a mathematical solver to solve the model and generate the driver schedules. Using our proposed method, the company can reduce 48 labor hours per created schedule and realize a reduction of 95.8% in deviation between scheduled and contractual hours.
