Abstract: This paper develops a track allocation model for large railway stations based on stochastic schedules, which considers balanced utilization as well as minimum occupation time of station tracks. The stochastic schedule is ...

Abstract: How to reschedule the railway timetable is an important problem in real train operations and management. The main purpose of dispatchers is to minimize the total delay time in the network, which is the sum of time difference ...

Abstract: Allocating tracks with operation restrictions for trains in a conflict-free way is known as the basic scheduling problem, and it has attracted much attention, especially at the station bottlenecks. First, this paper presents ...

Abstract: Last-train timetable coordination is extremely complex because a number of transfer directions involve in the subway network. In this paper, transfer redundant time (TRT) and transfer binary variables (TBV) that affect ...
