Driver Scheduling System for Public Transport

The objectives of the DISSY project are the development, evaluation, and dissemination of an HPCN-based simulation and decision support system for the bus and tram driver duty rostering problem in urban public transport (UPT). The tool allows for simulating and evaluating different scheduling scenarios, thereby enabling to better adapt human resource management to new market conditions. It multiplies the productivity of the users of the planning department and produces transparency for management and drivers. Leading to a new flexibility in urban public transport, the integrated tool gives new impulses to innovating the business process of urban public transport companies and other industries using shift work.
