    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a system and method for recommending intelligent railway network access plans and modified access plans based on current status of execution of tasks and train timetables. Herein, the system and method need to consider multiple variables including train timetable changes, activity efficiencies etc. to derive an overall optimum access management solution for the railway network. They can interface with existing operational timetables and cost management systems. It is to be noted that the disclosure herein uses existing data sets for operations and cost data. The cost data is manipulated to identify fixed and variable costs and variability of variable costs with access duration and activity bundling. A trade-off between cost and value is considered which results in a longer continuous time window being available for maintenance, less visits to same location to complete a maintenance task, less time spent in setup/unwind activities and higher labour utilization.

    Abstract: Disclosed is method and system for continuously re-generating reactive on-line train schedules for trains running in a large railway network. Railway network partitioned based on user configuration, into first type comprising trunk line and feeder line sub-networks, and second type comprising supervisory dispatch control territories. Sense and respond cycle is continuously executed on multi-processor computing environment, senses dynamic data from field about train movements, and other changes from users. For each first type sub-network, degree of deviation is computed from incumbent plans and congestion in sub-networks. Using degree of deviation and congestion, trains are rerouted and suitable scheduling methods are chosen for each sub-network and executed in parallel and first level train schedules are sent to second level train schedulers working on second type sub-networks which in parallel identify and resolve conflicts among first level train schedules. Second level train schedules are collated to generate reactive on-line network train schedule.
