A dynamic bid price approach for the seat inventory control problem in railway networks with consideration of passenger transfer.
Railway seat inventory control aims to maximize ticket sale profits by determining a selling policy on the reservation horizon. This paper introduces a dynamic bid price approach in railway seat inventory control problem. Multi-dimensional demand is taken into consideration in modeling the problem,...
