What have we done? IT13.rail2

What have we done? IT13.rail3 Achievement 1: Timetable stability

Energy Saving IT13.rail4 [4]

IT13.rail5 What to optimise in Train Traffic? 1.Capacity? 2.Energy consumption? 3.Punctuality? 4.Travel time? 5.Wear and Tear? 6.All of it??? 7.Flexible Optimisation?

IT13.rail6 What to optimise in Train Traffic? 1.Some of the possible optimisation goals are potentially conflicting 2.E.g.: capacity vs. punctuality 3.To define optimisation goals is a task of a company’s strategy 4.Processes and systems must then implement such a strategy

Conflict-based Approach 1.Acquire Actual State 2.Iteratively –Create real-time forecast –Detect conflicts –Evaluate conflict resolution proposals –Acceptance of conflict resolution 3.Make Decision 4.Adjusting the operating program and the control data 5.Generate speed recommendations for trains IT13.rail7

Tolerance Band IT13.rail8

Integration of TMS and ATO 1.TMS Framework IT13.rail9 Conclusion and Future workIntroductionState of the artMethodology used ATO Framework ?

IT13.rail10 Develop a business case 1.Deliver Business Performance – how? 2.How to start such an initiative? 3.Consider potential goals of optimisation 4.Develop business case 5.Considered LBL experiences and extrapolated to case of Switzerland (estimates)

IT13.rail11 Factors considered 1.Energy conservation 2.Reduction of time loss due to conflicts 3.Increase of capacity 4.Decrease of maintenance due to reduces wear and tear 5.Smoother experience for passengers

IT13.rail12 Ready made business case 1.Energy conservation 35 Mio CHF 2.Reduction of time loss due to conflicts 48 Mio CHF 3.Increase of capacity 385 Mio CHF 4.Decrease of maintenance due to reduces wear and tear 20 Mio CHF 5.Smoother experience for passengers ?
