Developing an “Intelligent” DSS for the multicriteria evaluation of railway timetables: problems and issues

摘要: ABSTRACT Given a Railway network, Rolling stock and Timetable (RRT), it is very difficult task to ex ante evaluate the loss of quality service offered travelers in case incidents. We have designed System for Robustness Evaluation (SRE) measure effects This system starts from RRT then decisions dispatchers, incident, are simulated by an expert system. After incidents resolved, resulting perturbed timetable analysed along five criteria. now completed. It appears as integrated multicriteria decision support which constitutes useful tool, both appreciate interest investments intended improve network or rolling stocks, guide choice timetable. Moreover, starting this according our experience, we discuss some problems issues met during development DSSs.
