Transit Route Network Design Problem
The transit route network design problem is a mathematical optimization problem in the context of Transportation network (graph theory), transportation networks with well-defined stops, routes and timetables such as bus and railway networks. The problem can be broken down into five subproblems: transportation network design, frequency setting, timetable development, vehicle scheduling, and crew scheduling.

Mathematical Optimization
Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelled ''optimisation'') or mathematical programming is the selection of a best element, with regard to some criteria, from some set of available alternatives. It is generally divided into two subfields: discrete optimization and continuous optimization. Optimization problems arise in all quantitative disciplines from computer science and engineering to operations research and economics, and the development of solution methods has been of interest in mathematics for centuries. In the more general approach, an optimization problem consists of maxima and minima, maximizing or minimizing a Function of a real variable, real function by systematically choosing Argument of a function, input values from within an allowed set and computing the Value (mathematics), value of the function. The generalization of optimization theory and techniques to other formulations constitutes a large area of applied mathematics. Optimization problems Opti ...
