This course addresses expert planners with a deep understanding of the
Carmen Rostering and Preferential Bidding system who wants to fully understand
and control the optimizer.
The course gives you a deep understanding of the Automatic Pairing and
Crew Rostering Optimizer in the Carmen Crew Rostering System. After
completing the course you will be able to:
- Control optimization methods through parameters
- Analyse optimization runs in detail
- Control features such as Route Instruction, Fly Below Rank etc.
- Tune optimization runs for maximum performance
- Suggest changes in Rave code for maximum performance
A deep understanding of the Carmen Crew Rostering System gained through
at least 6 months of experience using the system in addition to the
course Rostering I.
