Deliverables
This deliverable comprises three parts. The first part will address the functional specification, setting out all relevant processes required for yard simulation. The second part will set out the formalised technical specification for implementation of simulation in the specified simulation environment, whilst the final part will specify the processes and systems for data management during simulation.
Optimization of information and communication methodsList of existing interfaces between stakeholders in marshalling process; requirements for data from optimized processes in marshalling yard; data flow schematics and proposal of changes and extensions of information contents for efficient planning and managing of marshalling yard processes; recommendation for changes in existing standards.
Recommendations for improved traffic management, improved information and communication channels across parties involvedThis deliverable will secure that the bridge between the current state of play and new development concepts has been triggered. Specifically, it will provide an understanding and draft recommendations of how we can go beyond the current operation patterns for rail freight yard and for network management when the focus on those time-dependent activities and the importance of efficient data and information management mechanism in place. These recommendations will be further exploited in WP3, WP4 and WP5.
Definition of a suitable simulation environmentThis deliverable will set out findings from Task 3.1 to order to specify the requirements for a generally applicable simulation environment. It will develop an understanding of both the physical characteristics of marshalling yards and the data required for their management, and then assess the development needs for the VILLON simulation environment to be addressed in subsequent WPs.
Socio-Economic Impact Assessment of innovative real-time yard and network managementThis deliverable will describe the OptiYard KPI methodology, list all the relevant OptiYard KPIs to be economically assessed and summarise the evaluation of the (monetary, operational) benefits of the virtual software and optimisation modules tested and simulated by the two business cases.
Dissemination, Communication and Exploitation PlanThis document will define the strategy and activities for the successful completion of OptiYard dissemination
Project Management and Quality Assurance PlanThis document will set all management and quality assurance procedure which will be implemented for the successful delivery of the project
Business Case specifications and plansThis deliverable will provide a detailed description of the business case testing and simulation plans to ensure a common understanding of the tests to be performed by the demonstrators and to facilitate the transfer of virtual yard/terminal software from WP4/WP5 to WP6.
Definition and selection of suitable methods for real-time data analyticsThis deliverable is a milestone for the project as it will summarise the current state of practice regarding the operating process with freight assets (trains, wagons, locomotives, static and dynamic resources) and data collection and information management systems in rail freight yards and nearest networks. The outcome from this deliverable will provide a foundation for the development of the remaining tasks of WP2 (namely T2.3 and T 2.4), and contribute to the development of WP3, WP4 and WP5. This deliverable will also be included in the feasibility and simulation test exercise of WP6.
Data Management PlanThis document will set all procedures related to data exchange, storage and confidentiality
Report on Dissemination, Communication and Exploitation activitiesThis document will report all dissemination and exploitation actions performed during the course of OptiYard
Description of the optimization algorithms and simulation integrated environment: description of the yard optimization algorithm designed (from 5.2); description of the decision-support tool for the link to the network of the yard optimized management (from 5.3); description of the simulation-optimization integration (from 5.1-5.2-5.4); description of the yard-network integration (from 5.1-5.2-5.3-5.4).
Yard and network simulation modelModel to be used in WP5 and WP6
Yard simulation software for WP6Non-optimised software for virtual yard operations
This deliverable will summarise the feasibility tests of the virtual yard/terminal software and optimisation modules carried out by the two business cases in Czech Republic and Italy. It will contain all comparative results (AS-IS solution versus ‘step-by-step optimisation’ and ‘integrated system’) and all the envisaged scenarios.
