The PARTNER Network

摘要

The Path Allocation Re-engineering of Timetable Networks for European Railways project aims to demonstrate a new way of train path allocation and assembly along international corridors looking for a better harmonized and coordinated capacity management. The traditionl processes currently enacted by Railways during the planning phase are best candidates to exploit new approaches from computer technology and telematics. PARTNER will assist neighbour Infrastructure Managers to develop a common understanding of the effects of international train paths on each domestic timetable system. Central to PARTNER is the idea of creating and managing a shared design space where a virtual team of timetable planners shall meet, discuss, trade and mediate in achieving their common goal of building a train path crossing national borders.
