Abstract

In this paper, we present an overview over existing speed-up techniques for time-dependent route planning. Apart from only explaining each technique one by one, we follow a more systematic approach. We identify basic ingredients of these recent techniques and show how they need to be augmented to guarantee correctness in time-dependent networks. With the ingredients adapted, three efficient speed-up techniques can be set up: Core-ALT, SHARC, and Contraction Hierarchies. Experiments on real-world data deriving from road networks and public transportation confirm that these techniques allow the fast computation of time-dependent shortest paths.
