This volume is a compendium of papers presented during the second TRlennal Symposium on Transportation ANalysis (TRISTAN II) that took place in Capri, Italy on June 23-28, 1994. The Symposium was organized by the Progetto Finalizzato Trasporti and the Istituto di Analisi dei Sistemi ed Informatica of the Italian National Research Council jointly with the Italian Operations Research Society. The purpose of this kind of meetings is to periodically allow an exchange of views and findings by scientists in the field of transportation analysis methods and tools. Therefore, the papers presented dealt with a wide range of topics and cover the different aspects of transportation analysis. The material contained in this book gives particular emphasis to the development of mathematical modelling and algorithms. This development is due to the evolution of digital computers and the continuous increase of the computing power. In fact the need of solving large scale problems (crew scheduling, network traffic control, pollution monitoring and control,. etc ...) involves in some case, thousands of variables and therefore sophisticated mathematical models and computational algorithms.

This volume offers a survey of the most important current research in mathematical modelling for transportation analysis with particular emphasis on transportation planning, transportation management and vehicle management. In particular, the reader will find models, solution algorithms and computational results which allow to deal with the most complex problems in the above mentioned fields of transportation. All papers have been refereed and updated. The volume therefore offers a comprehensive and up-to-date view of transportation research.
