    摘要: A scheduling system and method for moving plural objects through a multipath system described as a freight railway scheduling system. The scheduling system utilizes a cost reactive resource scheduler to minimize resource exception while at the same time minimizing the global costs associated with the solution. The achievable movement plan can be used to assist in the control of, or to automatically control, the movement of trains through the system. Alternative routes through congested areas are automatically selected using congestion prediction metrics.

    摘要: A scheduling system and method for moving plural objects through a multipath system described as a freight railway scheduling system. The scheduling system utilizes a cost reactive resource scheduler to minimize resource exception while at the same time minimizing the global costs associated with the solution. The achievable movement plan can be used to assist in the control of, or to automatically control, the movement of trains through the system. Deadlock is avoided by controlling the entry of trains into congested areas, and may be automatically implemented by the use of traffic flow analysis algorithms.

    摘要: A method includes determining candidate schedules for plural vehicles traveling in a transportation network comprising and identifying a gridlock area in the transportation network by simulating travel of the vehicles according to the candidate schedules. The gridlock area includes a geographic subset of the transportation network during a time window having at least a predetermined number of failed candidate schedules that result in a decrease of a throughput parameter. The throughput parameter represents flow of travel of the vehicles in the transportation network. The method also includes determining an alternate schedule that differs from the candidate schedule for one or more of the plural vehicles (e.g., a first vehicle of the plural vehicles) that is traveling through the gridlock area. The alternate schedule dictates travel of the one or more of the plural vehicles (e.g., the first vehicle) without decreasing the throughput parameter of the transportation network.

    摘要: A system includes an interface module, a simulation module, and a resolution module. The interface module determines a captured state of vehicles traveling in a transportation network according to associated schedules and a proposed modification to the schedules. The captured state represents locations of the vehicles in the transportation network at a selected time. The simulation module simulates movement of the vehicles according to the proposed modification to the schedules. The movement of the vehicles is simulated from the selected time of the captured state of the vehicles. The resolution module determines potential ramifications from the movement of the vehicles that is simulated. The potential ramifications are representative of a simulated change in travel of the vehicles due to the proposed modification. The resolution module is further configured to use the potential ramifications for use in determining whether to implement the proposed modification in actual travel of the vehicles.
