A process for scheduling the travel of trains on a rail corridor. The rail corridor includes a plurality of siding tracks onto which trains can be sided when a meet or pass occurs with another train on the corridor. A gradient search process is used with a cost function to determine the optimum schedule by moving each meet and pass to a siding. The individual train schedules are varied by changing train speed and/or the train departure time (i.e., the time at which the train enters the corridor).
L'invention concerne un procédé servant à planifier le déplacement de trains dans un couloir ferroviaire. Le couloir ferroviaire comprend plusieurs voies d'évitement sur lesquelles on peut dégager des trains en cas de croisement ou de dépassement d'un autre train dans le couloir. On utilise un procédé de recherche du gradient avec une fonction de coût pour déterminer l'horaire optimal en déplaçant chaque croisement et dépassement vers une voie d'évitement. On fait varier des horaires de train individuels en modifiant la vitesse ou l'horaire de départ du train (c'est-à-dire l'heure à laquelle le train entre dans le couloir).
