Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system and a method for vehicle movement modeling in a network. The modeling may be characterized by vehicle related intelligence gathering, processing and dissemination thereof for an adaptive rescheduling of the vehicle movement in the railway network. Predefined data associated with the vehicle in the railway network is acquired and is further processed to resolve one or more conflicts associated with the vehicle movement. The processing may include allocating resources, developing plans for voyages, and continuously gathering deviation data. The vehicle movement modeling may also include generating detailed layouts of vehicle movements for particular time-periods over the railway network.
