However, the efficient rescheduling of trains after a perturbation is a complex real-world problem. The complexity is compounded by the fact that the problem may be both dynamic and multi-objective. The aim of this research is to investigate the ability of ant colony optimization algorithms to solve a simulated dynamic multi-objective railway rescheduling problem and, in the process, to attempt to identify the features of the algorithms that enable them to cope with a multi-objective problem that is also dynamic. Results showed that, when the changes in the problem are large and frequent, retaining the archive of non-dominated solution between changes and updating the pheromones to reflect the new environment play an important role in enabling the algorithms to perform well on this dynamic multi-objective railway rescheduling problem. 收起
