Book Description
The purpose of this research is to provide insight into the effectiveness of certain real time dispatching control actions on service reliability for transfer from a high frequency bus route to a low frequency bus route. A model of the operation of 2 connected bus routes was built based on data from real bus routes operated by OC Transpo in Ottawa, and a simulation program was designed and developed. This simulation program was used to conduct experiments to compare different control actions to improve transfer effectiveness, to test the impacts of the bus threshold on passenger waiting time and to evaluate the AVL detector location. We defined an objective function--cost/benefit function, to measure the system performance of the above cases. This objective function considered 2 important factors: number of passengers relevant to transfer and waiting time relevant to control. The research and simulation experiments suggested that real time monitoring technologies can improve the transit bus transferring significantly without preplanned timed transfer. The detector location is determined by feeder line headway primarily and the connecting bus holding threshold secondarily. Without considering the hard requirements from outside system, the bus holding threshold should not be greater than the feeder line headway.

Application of Intelligent Systems in Multi-modal Information Analytics
Author: Vijayan SugumaranPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030514315
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 815
Book Description
This book presents the proceedings of the 2020 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications in Multi-modal Information Analytics, held in Changzhou, China, on June 18–19, 2020. It provides comprehensive coverage of the latest advances and trends in information technology, science and engineering. It addresses a number of broad themes, including data mining, multi-modal informatics, agent-based and multi-agent systems for health and education informatics, which inspire the development of intelligent information technologies. The contributions cover a wide range of topics such as AI applications and innovations in health and education informatics; data and knowledge management; multi-modal application management; and web/social media mining for multi-modal informatics. Outlining promising future research directions, the book is a valuable resource for students, researchers and professionals, and a useful reference guide for newcomers to the field.
Operations Management in Automotive Industries
Author: Marco GobettoPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400775938
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This book has proved its worth over the years as a text for courses in Production Management at the Faculty of Automotive Engineering in Turin, Italy, but deserves a wider audience as it presents a compendium of basics on Industrial Management, since it covers all major topics required. It treats all subjects from product development and “make or buy”-decision strategies to the manufacturing systems setting and management through analysis of the main resources needed in production and finally exploring the supply chain management and the procurement techniques. The very last chapter recapitulates the previous ones by analysing key management indicators to pursue the value creation that is the real purpose of every industrial enterprise. As an appendix, a specific chapter is dedicated to the basics of production management where all main relevant definitions, techniques and criteria are treated, including some numerical examples, in order to provide an adequate foundation for understanding the other chapters. This book will be of use not only to Automotive Engineering students but a wide range of readers who wish to gain insight in the world of automotive engineering and the automotive industry in general.

Optimization in Public Transportation
Author: Anita SchöbelPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387366431
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
This book develops models, results and algorithms for optimizing public transportation from a customer-oriented viewpoint. The methods used are based on graph-theoretic approaches and integer programming. The specific topics are all motivated by real-world examples which occurred in practical projects: location of stops, management of delay, and tariff zone design. An appendix summarizes some of the basics of optimization needed to interpret the material in the book.
