Philine Schiewe

Philine Schiewe is an Assistant Professor at Aalto University's Department of Mathematics and Systems Analysis, School of Science. Her research focuses on algorithmic methods for public transport optimization, including line planning, timetabling, and vehicle scheduling. She has contributed to integrated optimization frameworks for transport networks, emphasizing computational efficiency and real-world applicability.

Her work spans theoretical algorithm design (e.g., fixed-parameter tractability, graph-based methods) and practical applications in transportation systems. Key research areas include fare structure optimization, user equilibrium modeling, and infrastructure investment strategies. She collaborates on open-source tools like TimPassLib for periodic timetabling and passenger routing.

Recent publications address non-pool-based line planning algorithms, bi-objective fare design models, and combined truck-cargo-bike routing optimizations. Her research bridges operations research, discrete mathematics, and transportation engineering to improve urban mobility systems.
