IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.

Despite being one of the world's largest railways networks, with a daily transportation of over 25 million passengers and 2.8 million tons of freight, the Indian Railways perform their signaling, traffic management and trains scheduling activities in a completely manual way. The lack of automation causes not only significant delays, but also frequent collisions where passengers die or remain seriously injured. This paper describes how we modeled the Indian Railways system as a MAS and the results of the simulations run using NetLogo on real data retrieved from the Indian Railways dataset. The simulated system is-under some assumptions-collision-free and, thanks to the integration of the MAX-SUM algorithm, minimizes the individual train delay

Abstract:	Despite being one of the world's largest railways networks, with a daily transportation of over 25 million passengers and 2.8 million tons of freight, the Indian Railways perform their signaling, traffic management and trains scheduling activities in a completely manual way. The lack of automation causes not only significant delays, but also frequent collisions where passengers die or remain seriously injured. This paper describes how we modeled the Indian Railways system as a MAS and the results of the simulations run using NetLogo on real data retrieved from the Indian Railways dataset. The simulated system is-under some assumptions-collision-free and, thanks to the integration of the MAX-SUM algorithm, minimizes the individual train delay
