Abstract:

Presented in this paper is an overview of a series of models and algorithms that have been developed for use with advanced train control systems technology on railroads to improve the reliability and costs of operations. After the conceptual framework of a hierarchy of control models is described, examples are used to illustrate the use of the various models at each level.
