  2. 1. Timetable evaluation with focus on quality for travellers

    Author : Jennifer Warg; Markus Bohlin; Olsson Nils; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Capacity evaluation; railway simulation; economic assessment; delays; timetable analysis; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Punctuality and reliability are important for travellers. Railway lines with heterogeneous and dense traffic have proved to be prone to generate delays. Faster services and increased traffic have to be counterbalanced with measures for increased reliability. Efficient timetable planning can improve the use of such lines. READ MORE

  4. 2. Agile, Resilient and Cost-efficient Mobile Backhaul Networks : Fundamentals of Network Design and Adaptation

    Author : Forough Yaghoubi; Marija Furdek; Lena Wosinska; Dipak Ghosal; KTH; []
    Keywords : 5G; topology design and control; software defined networking; rain disturbance; techno-economic framework; network consistency.; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : The exponentially increasing traffic demand for mobile services requires innovative solutions in both access and backhaul segments of 5th generation (5G) mobile networks. Whilst substantial research efforts address the access segment, the backhaul part has received less attention and still falls short in meeting the stringent requirements of 5G in terms of capacity and availability.

  5. 3. Traffic Control for VBR Video in Packet Switched Networks

    Author : György Dán; KTH; []
    Keywords : Traffic control; VBR video; shaping; FEC; QoS;

    Abstract : The best effort service offered by the Internet is notsatisfactory for the transmission of loss and delay sensitivedata, such as real-time voice and video. In order to provideservice guarantees at reasonably high load levels, additionalcontrol functions haveto be employed in the network. READ MORE

  6. 4. Timetable Analysis based on Social Cost and Simulation

    Author : Jennifer Warg; Markus Bohlin; Oskar Fröidh; Carl-William Palmqvist; Paola Pellegrini; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railway capacity allocation; timetable analysis; social costs; microscopic railway simulation; macroscopic railway simulation; passengers; timetable performance; early departing freight trains; Järnvägskapacitet; tidtabellsanalys; sociala kostnader; mikroskopisk järnvägssimulering; makroskopisk järnvägssimulering; resande; tidtabellseffektivitet; tidiga godståg; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

    Abstract : The timetable is essential for railway traffic. Its design affects rail operations – and by extension all operators, passengers, and freight clients. International practice for capacity allocation varies and there is no common algorithm for designing and evaluating timetable changes. READ MORE

  7. 5. Promoting Innovation in Transportation Infrastructure Maintenance : Incentives Contracting and Performance Based Specifications

    Author : Torbjörn Stenbeck; Johan Silfwerbrand; Jan Bröchner; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Knowledge of what action that is needed to drive innovation at a desired speed is in demand in civil engineering and its related maintenance. 1. What measures to stimulate innovation have been tested? 2. How much innovation has been achieved by contracting? 3. READ MORE
