A chapter in Open Problems in Optimization and Data Analysis, 2018, pp 151-170 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter reviews some urban transport problems that are vital in developing countries. These problems are formulated as optimization programs. They are usually nonlinear, discrete, bi-level, and multi-objective. Finding an efficient solution method for each problem is still a challenge. Besides, the reformulation of existing mathematical models in a solvable form is also an open question.
