We introduce the decision support tool PANDA (Passenger Aware Novel Dispatching Assistance). Our web-based tool is designed to provide train dispatchers with detailed real-time information about the current passenger flow and the multidimensional impact of waiting decisions in case of train delays. After presenting the algorithmic background and PANDA’s main features, we show how it can be util...
