Determination of Optimal Work Start Time

In this paper, the author examines whether total travel costs and travel time can be reduced by adjusting the work start time. The author proposes a two-level model in which the upper level minimizes the travel cost and travel time by using the work start time as a decision variable, while the lower level models the stochastic dynamic simultaneous route/departure time equilibrium problem. Numerical results from a small network illustrate the behavior of the model.
