Abstract
In a recent paper by Bocxe and Tilanus (1985) concerning standard software for vehicle scheduling the conclusion was that there is a need for flexible, user-friendly, interactive, and cheap vehicle scheduling software. The author can strongly support this conclusion from experiences in Denmark where almost all software for vehicle scheduling until now have been developed and used on main frames and minicomputers mainly to get reasonable response times and to have the necessary computer memory.
