About the School

The Fall School on Robust Network Design and Delay Management is a training course organized by the ARRIVAL (Algorithms for Robust and on-line  Railway optimization: Improving the Validity and reliAbility of Large-scale systems, FP6-021235-2) project. The purpose of the School is to train  PhD students, young researchers and others who are interested in railway planning, with the aim of introducing them to research areas related to robust and on-line optimization of railway and large-scale systems. This year the School will address two subjects that, although are not usually presented together, are strongly related. A good design makes the management of delays easier since in general, delay management depends on the network design and line planning. Moreover, studying delay management in depth will provide pointers on how robust railway networks should be designed and how to upgrade the robustness of existent networks.

After the School, on Friday the 16th November ATMOS 2007 will be held.
 

IMPORTANT:"Due to capacity constraints in our classroom and to have a good quality in the School, the number of attendants is bounded by 45 (35 ARRIVAL members + 10 non ARRIVAL members)."
The acceptance will be strictly in order of payment. (First paying first registered)
