A review of passenger-oriented railway rescheduling approaches

Abstract Railway operations are highly susceptible to delays and disruptions caused by various factors, such as technical issues, operational inefficiencies, unforeseen events. To counter these ensure efficient railway during real-time management, several rescheduling approaches can be implemented. Among approaches, passenger-oriented considers train while taking passenger data into account, opposed operation-oriented rescheduling. This paper provides an overview of the former group approaches. Particular focus is put on different ways exploited optimize measures, decide on. The measures typically considered vary from decisions maintaining transfers, canceling trains, adding emergency changing routes orders skipping or stops at stations, short-turning applying speed control, modifying rolling stock compositions. In this regard, presents a comprehensive analysis adopted in both conventional urban rail transit points out possible directions for further research field.
