Course content
Transport schedules - the most frequent types - spatial, time and executive schedules. Modification of the PERT method for design of time schedules. GOP-1 method. Discrete task of dynamic programming. Application by time location of public transport connections. GOP-2 method. Regular (periodic, tact) time schedules. Almost regular time schedules. Rates of irregularity. So called "Žilina problem" of deployment of polygons to circles. Application to coordination of lines a¨t collective links. Coordination of time schedules at interchanging nodes. Assignment of vehicles at public transport lines by different target functions. Square root rule by application of criterion of passengers' time lost. Assignment of vehicles to services. Schedule of conveyances as reservation system. Vehicle fleet optimization. Problem of regularization of executive schedule. Problem of optimal distribution of traffic load to a set of vehicles. Elimination of irregularity rate in the case of schedule of services. Exact and heuristic solutions. DFS - depth-first search. Design of first urban public transit line. Evaluation of routes of suburban public transport lines in areas of cities by model. Problems of selection of optimal route of special purposes. Design of optimal route for cyclists. Circulations of equipment. Optimization of circulations by different criterions and constraints. Optimization of transport supply. Location of hubs.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing)
Learning outcomes
The target of the subject is to allow getting of detail knowledge about time schedules of processes in transport networks and about reciprocal assignment of executing elements and processes.
Ability to utilize optimization models and methods in transport system, especially in the field of schedules.
Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination

For students of the full-time study participation in an examination is conditioned by obtaining a course credit. The obtained course credit confirms that the full-time student attended the lessons in the required amount, that he/she met the requirements for acquiring the course credit and may proceed to take the examination. Conditions for acquiring the course credit are stipulated by the teacher during the first week of the semester lecture period. The examination in the subject (its form, content and duration) is determined in compliance with the Study and Examination Regulations of the University of Pardubice.
