β¦ Synopsis
We describe a general solution method for the problem of finding the shortest path between two vertices of a graph in which each edge has some transit time, costs can vary with time, and stopping and parking (with corresponding costs) are allowed at the vertices.

We study a new version of the shortest path problem. Let G Γ (V, E) be a directed graph. Each arc e β E has two numbers attached to it: a transit time b(e, u) and a cost c(e, u), which are functions of the departure time u at the beginning vertex of the arc. Moreover, postponement of departure (i.e.
This paper presents an optimal dynamic programming algorithm, the first such algorithm in the literature to solve the shortest path problem with time windows and additional linear costs on the node service start times. To optimally solve this problem, we propose a new dynamic programming algorithm w
