Abstract: An information processing apparatus manages the operation of an alternative vehicle when a vehicle recovers from a failure. The information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller is configured to determine, when it is judged that the vehicle is not operational due to failure of the vehicle, to introduce an alternative vehicle to replace the vehicle, and when recovery information indicating that the vehicle has recovered from the failure is acquired, maintain the determination to introduce the alternative vehicle or cancel the introduction of the alternative vehicle and redetermine the recovered vehicle as being operational.

Abstract: A transportation system includes a traveling route, vehicles, and a service management device. The service management device includes a timetable generator that generates a timetable for each of the vehicles, and a communication device that is configured to receive passenger information at least from the vehicles or stops. The timetable generator calculates a boarding and alighting time estimate of the vehicle at the stop based on at least the passenger information such that a higher average speed of the vehicle between the stops and a longer dwell time of the vehicle at the stop are set for a longer boarding and alighting time estimate.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a controller that acquires, from vehicle dispatch centers that each manage an operation plan for a specific area, the operation plan for each area, determines, based on the acquired operation plans, whether a period of time exists, in non-adjacent first and second areas, during which there is a surplus of vehicles in the first area and a shortage of vehicles in the second area, and generates, when the period of time is determined to exist, a vehicle movement plan such that a surplus vehicle in the first area is lent to a vehicle dispatch center that manages an operation plan for an area between the first and second areas, and a vehicle dispatch center in the second area borrows a vehicle from the vehicle dispatch center that manages the operation plan for the area between the first and second areas.

Abstract: An operation management apparatus includes a plan generator configured to generate a travel plan for each of a plurality of vehicles that form a line of vehicles and that travel autonomously along a predetermined travel route; a communication device configured to transmit the travel plans to the respective vehicles and receive, from the vehicles, travel information that indicates travel status of the vehicles; and an operation monitor configured to detect, based on the travel information, whether or not overtaking and passing of the vehicles have occurred. In response to the overtaking and passing, the plan generator modifies the travel plans so as to keep the order as switched upon the overtaking and passing.
