TL;DR: In this article, the design and deployment of a bike-sharing system developed for Lisbon is presented through an heuristic, encompassing a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP), that simultaneously optimizes the location of shared biking stations, the fleet dimension and measuring the bicycle relocation activities required in a regular operation day.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the formulation of a new optimization problem designated as the express minibus problem, which intends to form small groups of clients with compatible boarding/exiting points in time and space for a new type of urban mobility service.

TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of implementing a new alternative intermediate transport mode in the Lisbon, Portugal, metropolitan area was examined, which combines the major strengths of both public transport and private vehicles to provide a competitive transport alternative for commuters from low and intermediate density areas.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a heuristic encompassing a mixed integer linear program to model the synchronisation between a minibus feeder service and a mass transit system, which was tested in a dense suburban area around a communting rail line in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) was used in the design of a new alternative intermediate transport mode and examines the viability of its implementation on the Lisbon Metropolitan Area.
