Although trains are operated according to predefined schedules, unexpected incidents sometimes occur and trains inevitably experience delays. An example of such a delay is when dwell time increases due to an object caught between the doors; this leads to a build-up of passengers on the platform, who then rush onto the train when the doors are reopened to release the object. Train delays may als...

Real-time bus arrival information systems at transit stops can be useful to passengers for efficient trip planning and reducing waiting times. The accuracy of such systems depends upon the ability of the model to account for variations in the data series and to adjust according to changing traffic conditions. Many of the existing studies on passenger information systems have modeled the system ...

The need to make effective plans for locating transportation hubs is of increasing importance in the megaregional area, as recent research suggests that growing intercity travel demand affects efficiency a system. This paper investigates hierarchical facility location problem passenger network. aim study determine locations hub facilities at different levels and distribute demands these with mi...

Data mining is widely used in business applications including market segmentation, fraud detection, credit risk analysis as well as many other applications. In the construction domain however, the use of data mining has been extremely limited. Data mining usually requires the availability of a large database of previous cases to be analyzed. Therefore applications in the construction industry m...
