Bus Crew Schedule System from the Perspective of Multi-Agent System and Meta-Abilities

A bus crew-scheduling plan is the most critical part in a bus operators’ operational information system (IS) as it involves large resources and cost. This paper proposes a conceptual framework for an optimum and dynamic crew scheduling by using the concept of a multi agent system (MAS) and meta...
