This paper presents an overview of recovery models and algorithms for real-time railway
disturbance and disruption management. This area is currently an active research area in …

Nowadays, the railway industry is in a position where it is able to exploit the opportunities
created by the IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and enabling communication technologies …

Automation is expected to effectively address the growing demand for passenger and freight
transportation, safety issues, human errors, and increasing congestion. The growth of …

Railway track maintenance and renewal are vital for railway safety, train punctuality, and
travel comfort. Therefore, having cost-effective maintenance is critical in managing railway …

Rescheduling in railway networks is a challenging problem in both practice and theory. It
requires good quality solutions in reasonable computation time to resolve unexpected …

Railway timetables are developed to make operations robust and resilient to small delays.
However, disturbances perturb the daily plan, and dispatchers adjust the plan to keep …

Unexpected disruptions occur for many reasons in railway networks and cause delays,
cancelations, and, eventually, passenger inconvenience. This research focuses on the …

On a daily basis, large-scale disruptions require infrastructure managers and railway
operators to reschedule their railway timetables together with their rolling stock and crew …

Railway infrastructure maintenance consumes very large budgets, is complicated to
organize and has numerous challenging planning problems. Specifically, the coordination …

This paper addresses the problem of improving the integration between passenger
timetabling and track maintenance scheduling. We propose a microscopic optimization …
