Abstract

In this paper we provide efficient robust algorithms for shunting
problems concerning the reordering of train cars over a hump. In
particular, we study algorithms able to cope with small
disruptions, as temporary and local availability and/or
malfunctioning of key resources that can occur and affect planned
operations. To this aim, a definition of robust algorithm is
provided. Performances of the proposed algorithms are measured by
the notion of price of robustness. Various scenarios are
considered, and interesting results are presented.
