Abstract
Train rescheduling during disrupted service is a substantially significant task for urban railway operators. This task typically depends on the experiences and personal decisions of the professional operators. The operators use neither systematic methodologies for modifying train schedules nor quantitative criteria for measuring the quality of the rescheduled plans. Thus, operators have requested assistance in the form of a computer-aided train-rescheduling program. The authors have created a computer-aided train rescheduling system that seeks to minimize passenger inconvenience. Themethod of passenger flow for train rescheduling is discussed for realistic analysis.
