Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present embodiment relates to an information processing system, a computer program, and an information processing method. [Background technology]

[0002] Railway companies and other organizations create operation plans for train formations (hereinafter referred to as "formations") and operate the formations according to these operation plans. These operation plans are usually timetables for each formation running on commercial lines from the time it leaves a depot until it enters the depot.

[0003] On the other hand, the work plan within the depot (hereinafter also referred to as the depot plan) is a timetable for each train set from the time it enters the depot and is parked in the storage line until it leaves the storage line the next day.

[0004] During business hours, unpredictable delays and other issues can occur, making it impossible to create long-term, planned in-base schedules. For example, after business hours, in-base schedules are often decided manually on the day. This makes it difficult to automatically create in-base schedules.

[0006] An information processing system, a computer program, and an information processing method are provided that can automatically create an in-base plan. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The information processing system according to this embodiment includes a basic yard plan creation unit, a vehicle dispatch plan creation unit, and an implementation yard plan creation unit. The basic yard plan creation unit uses information on multiple operation routes in a mobile object operation plan during business hours and information on the base yard regarding multiple storage locations where mobile objects are stored during or after business hours to create a basic yard plan for the base yard by continuously connecting multiple yard routes from the entry of a first operation route among the multiple operation routes, via storage at one of the multiple storage locations, to the exit of a second operation route following the first operation route. The vehicle dispatch plan creation unit creates a vehicle dispatch plan by assigning mobile objects to each of the multiple operation routes or multiple yard routes on a daily basis. When a change in the vehicle dispatch plan requires an additional yard route different from any of the multiple yard routes, the implementation yard plan creation unit creates the additional yard route using a first yard route selected from the multiple yard routes.

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiment. The drawings are schematic or conceptual. In the specification and drawings, the same elements are designated by the same reference numerals.

[0010] In the following embodiments, the moving body is, as an example, a train formation (hereinafter also referred to as a formation). However, the present embodiment can also be applied to any moving body, such as a bus, a ship, a robot, an AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle), or transportation equipment, in the same way as a formation.

[0011] (First embodiment) FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a retention plan creation system according to a first embodiment. The retention plan creation system 1 as an information processing system includes a retention plan creation device 101, a client browser 103, and a client display 104. The retention plan creation device 101 may be configured as, for example, a server system. The client browser 103 and the client display 104 are communicatively connected to the retention plan creation device 101 via the Internet 102. The client browser 103 and the client display 104 can refer to or operate the retention plan provided by the retention plan creation device 101 from a remote location.

[0012] The storage plan creation device 101 creates a storage plan (yard plan) for storing a train set in a storage area within the premises of a railway station, a train depot, or the like. Stopping a train set within the premises of a depot is called storage. One or more storage sections (storage areas) are provided for storing the train sets. A storage section (storage area) is also sometimes called a track or a route. One or more train sets can be stored in a vertical line on one track, depending on the length of the track.

[0013] The placement plan creating device 101 includes a storage unit 200 and a placement plan creating unit 300.

[0014] The storage unit 200 stores in advance information on the operation plan of the train set during business hours and information on the base premises where the train set is parked during non-business hours or after business hours. The storage unit 200 is configured, for example, by a storage medium such as a memory or a hard disk.

[0015] The storage plan creation unit 300 creates a storage plan (yard plan) using information on multiple operating routes in the operation plan for train formations during service and information on the depot yard related to multiple storage locations where formations are stored outside of service or after service. The storage plan creation unit 300 is configured, for example, by a processing device such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The CPU executes an information processing program, which is a computer program, on a main storage device. The information processing program is a program that realizes each of the above-mentioned functional configurations of the information processing device. The information processing program may be realized not as a single program, but as a combination of multiple programs or scripts. Each functional configuration is realized by the CPU executing the information processing program.

[0016] A storage plan is data that assigns one or more target train sets to track numbers within a rolling stock depot. A storage plan is created by assigning one or more target train sets to track numbers within a rolling stock depot. Track numbers at rolling stock depots include track numbers that can store multiple train sets in a vertical line, track numbers with branches, and complex track number structures that combine these track numbers.

[0017] Figure 2 is a diagram showing an example of a track structure. Four train sets, L1 to L4, are stored on track R1. Track R1 allows entry and exit only on one side, with the other side being a dead end. This results in a "last in, first out" system, where the last train set to enter the track is the first to leave. Therefore, a restriction is imposed on the same track that the order of entry and exit must be reversed. This type of track structure is called the LIFO system. In other words, the LIFO system is a system in which trains can enter and exit a track (storage area) from a first direction, but cannot exit from a second direction opposite the first direction, and cannot enter from the second direction.

[0018] Figure 3 is a diagram showing another example of a track grid structure. In this track grid structure, only trains can enter the grid from one side of track grid R1, and only trains can leave the grid from the other side. In this track grid structure, the first train to enter the grid is the first to leave, a "first-in, first-out" system. A restriction is imposed that the order of entering the grid and the order of leaving the grid must match on the same track. This type of track grid is called the FIFO system. In other words, the FIFO system is a system in which trains can enter the grid (storage area) from a first direction, but cannot exit from the first direction, and can exit from a second direction opposite the first direction, but cannot enter from the second direction.

[0019] In addition to the LIFO and FIFO systems, there is also a type of track structure (not shown) that allows entry and exit from both ends of the track. This type of track is called the FREE system. In other words, the FREE system means that entry and exit from the track (storage area) is possible from a first direction, and from a second direction opposite to the first direction.

[0020] Although the above shows a simplified track numbering structure including only one track number in order to explain the track numbering structure, a rolling stock depot or the like may have multiple track numbers. For example, Fig. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a depot yard with multiple track numbers using a LIFO track numbering structure. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a depot yard with multiple track numbers using a FIFO track numbering structure.

[0021] When multiple trains are stored in a vertical queue like this, it may not be possible to enter a train into a storage area further away from the entrance or to remove a train from a storage area further away from the exit. In this case, the order in which trains can enter and leave the warehouse is restricted. Here, a situation in which multiple trains are stored in a vertical queue like this and a certain train cannot enter or leave the warehouse is referred to as "inconsistent."

[0022] 6 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the storage plan creation device 101 according to this embodiment. The storage plan creation unit 300 includes a basic yard plan creation unit 301, a vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302, and an implementation yard plan creation unit 303.

[0023] The basic yard plan creation unit 301 creates a basic yard plan from information such as the operation plan 201 during business hours, yard information 202, and work plan 203. The operation plan 201 is a timetable from when a train set leaves the depot to when it returns to the depot, and is shown by multiple operation routes (lines). The basic yard plan creation unit 301 obtains the operation plan 201 from the memory unit 200, and obtains operation numbers that identify each operation route included in the operation plan 201, time information such as the entry time and departure time for each operation route, and operation cycle information that indicates the order in which the operation routes are operated. The basic yard plan creation unit 301 also obtains the yard information 202 from the memory unit 200, and obtains information such as the number of each storage space in the depot and the structure of each storage space (for example, parallel structure, vertical structure) included in the yard information 202. The basic yard plan creation unit 301 also obtains the work plan 203 from the memory unit 200, and obtains information such as the inspection cycle of the train set.

[0024] The basic yard plan creation unit 301 uses this information to create a yard route from the entry of one route to the departure of the next route for each of the multiple routes. On the yard route, after entering the yard, the train set leaves the yard via being stored in one of the multiple storage areas. Therefore, one yard route can be drawn as a stripe in a roughly U-shape, as shown in Figure 21.

[0025] The basic premises plan creation unit 301 creates an internal route for each of the multiple operating routes. Furthermore, the basic premises plan creation unit 301 creates one circulation route by continuously connecting the multiple operating routes and multiple internal routes in a single stroke according to the operation numbers of the operating routes. This circulation route is the basic premises plan. In other words, the basic premises plan is a circulation route that connects the multiple operating routes and multiple internal routes in a single stroke. Therefore, when a train set runs along a route in the basic premises plan, the train set makes a circuit of the multiple operating routes and multiple internal routes before returning to the original route.

[0026] This basic premises plan is created for different units of operation plans, such as weekdays and holidays. Therefore, the basic premises plan includes a weekday basic premises plan that is repeatedly executed every day on weekdays, and a holiday basic premises plan that is executed on holidays. In other words, in this case, the basic premises plan creation unit 301 creates two circulation routes, one for weekdays and one for holidays, as the basic premises plan. In this way, the basic premises plan is created separately for each of, for example, weekdays and holidays, but it has not yet been created for each day, and vehicle formations have not yet been allocated. The basic premises plan is stored in the memory unit 200.

[0027] The vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302 obtains the basic premises plan 204 from the storage unit 200 and allocates vehicle formations according to the basic premises plan for each day. That is, the vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302 allocates vehicle formations for each day to multiple operating routes or multiple premises routes, and creates a vehicle allocation plan. The allocation of vehicle formations is performed by associating the vehicle formation numbers with the operating routes or premises routes. The vehicle allocation plan is stored in the storage unit 200.

[0028] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 obtains the vehicle dispatch plan 205 from the storage unit 200, and creates a new yard route (additional yard route) when it becomes necessary in accordance with actual operation. For example, if a train formation is delayed compared to the operation plan in actual operation, it may be necessary to change the vehicle dispatch plan. In such a case, a new additional yard route must be generated in accordance with the change in the vehicle dispatch plan. The additional yard route is a yard route that differs from any of the multiple yard routes created in the basic yard plan in terms of the yard route on the entrance side, the yard route on the exit side, and / or the storage location.

[0029] When such an additional yard route becomes necessary, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 creates the additional yard route using a yard route (first yard route) selected from the multiple yard routes in the basic yard plan. The practical yard plan creation unit 303 selects, as the first yard route, an yard route having the same departure information as the next day's departure information of the additional yard route (operation number and departure time of the next day's operation route). Then, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 separates the previous day's arrival information of the first yard route (operation number and departure time of the previous day's operation route) from the next day's departure information, and creates the additional yard route using the departure information of the first yard route. More specifically, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 sets the storage location of the first yard route as the storage location of the additional yard route, and uses the departure side route from the storage location of the first yard route to departure. Furthermore, for the inbound side of the additional yard route, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 selects an inbound route (second yard route) that has the same inbound information as the inbound information of the additional yard route on the previous day (the operation number of the operation route on the previous day, the inbound time).The practical yard plan creation unit 303 then creates a route (inbound route) from the inbound side of the second yard route to the storage location set in the outbound route.This creates the additional yard route.The additional yard route is incorporated into the vehicle dispatch plan and the practical yard plan.

[0030] The additional yard route, with respect to the outgoing route from the storage location to the outgoing route, is the same as the first yard route created in the basic yard plan, so the train can be reliably departed. In other words, the additional yard route does not contradict the outgoing route. On the other hand, the ingoing route is a route from the ingoing route of the second yard route to the storage location set using the first yard route, so there are cases where the train cannot actually be departed. In other words, there are cases where the ingoing route is contradictory. If there is a contradiction in the ingoing route, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 arbitrarily changes the storage location of the additional yard route. Furthermore, if there is a contradiction in the ingoing route, the practical yard plan creation unit 303 repeatedly changes the storage location of the additional yard route. Note that the change of the storage location of the additional yard route may be executed by an operator manually operating the storage plan creation device 101. Furthermore, contradictions in the ingoing route may be automatically resolved using the technology disclosed in JP 2023-101286 A.

[0031] Furthermore, if the inconsistency in the receiving route cannot be resolved, the train set will be swapped with another train set when it is received into the warehouse.

[0032] In this way, a daily site plan 206 is created and stored in the storage unit 200 .

[0033] Next, we will explain in more detail the three steps of creating a basic premises plan, creating a vehicle allocation plan, and creating an implementation premises plan.

[0034] (Creating a basic site plan) FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a basic operation plan. The basic operation plan is a circular route that forms the basis of the operation plan during business hours. Therefore, the basic operation plan is divided into a circular route for weekdays and a circular route for holidays. The basic operation plan does not include vehicle allocation information. The basic operation plan can be obtained from the operation plan 201 in FIG. 6. FIG. 22 is a flow diagram showing an example of a method for creating a basic premises plan.

[0035] This basic operation plan requires four train sets, including a spare operation. Each operation route in the basic operation plan is assigned an operation number: RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, and spare. The operation start time for each operation route indicates the time of departure from the base premises. The operation end time for each operation route indicates the time of arrival at the base premises. The operation routes with operation numbers RT3-1 and RT3-2 are the morning and afternoon operation routes of the day, respectively, and can be performed by a single train set.

[0036] The basic yard plan creation unit 301 obtains operation numbers that identify each of the service routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, and backup, time information (depot departure time (i.e., operation start time), depot arrival time (i.e., operation end time)) for the service routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, and backup corresponding to each operation number, and operation circulation information that indicates the operation order of the service routes (S10). The operation circulation information for weekdays may be, for example, RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, and backup. Since the operation circulation is cyclical, operations are repeated in the following order: RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, backup, RT1, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, backup, ... The operation circulation information for holidays may be, for example, RT1, RT2, backup 1, and backup 2. Since the operational cycle is cyclical, it operates in the following order: RT1, RT2, spare 1, spare 2, RT1, RT2, spare 1, spare 2, ... Note that spare, spare 1, and spare 2 are spare operations that keep the train set in a storage area, and are provided for vehicle inspections, etc.

[0037] FIG. 8 is a conceptual diagram showing an example of the yard information 202. The basic yard plan creation unit 301 obtains the numbers of each storage space D1 to D4 in the base yard, which are included in the yard information 202, and information on the structure of each storage space D1 to D4 (for example, parallel structure, vertical structure) (S20). It is assumed that each of the storage spaces D1 to D4 can store one train set. The structure of the storage spaces is not shown in FIG. 8. That is, there may be cases where more than one of the storage spaces D1 to D4 has a vertical structure. The horizontal axis indicates time, and the time at which the date data is changed (for example, 3:00 a.m.) is set as the date change time. Note that entrances IO1 and IO2 indicate the entrance and exit ports in the base yard.

[0038] The basic site plan creation unit 301 creates a basic site plan using this information.

[0039] 9 to 11 are conceptual diagrams showing an example of a method for creating a basic site plan. Here, a method for creating a basic site plan for weekdays is explained. In this specific example, "backup" is not taken into consideration. These conceptual diagrams may be displayed as screens on the client display 104.

[0040] First, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 adds operation plan information to the base yard information. As a result, as shown in FIG. 9, departure information and arrival information for the service routes RT1 to RT3-2 are displayed (S30). The order of departure is RT1, RT2, and RT3-1, and the order of arrival is RT1, RT2, and RT3-2. Although the illustration of the service routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 during operation is omitted, the service routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 can be displayed as a single continuous route from departure from the base to arrival. The departure times (operation start times) and arrival times (operation end times) for the service routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 are as shown in FIG. 7.

[0041] Between the departure information for route RT3-1 and the arrival information for route RT3-2, there is the arrival information for route RT3-1 and the departure information for route RT3-2. However, because route RT3-1 and route RT3-2 operate with a single formation, only the departure information for route RT3-1 and the arrival information for route RT3-2 are displayed here.

[0042] Next, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or an operator determines the storage location for the previous day for the train sets operating on each of the operating routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 (S40). For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the storage location for the previous day for operating route RT1 is determined to be D3. The storage location may be determined automatically by the basic yard plan creation unit 301 using AI (Artificial Intelligence), or may be determined arbitrarily by the operator. Inconsistencies in the routes to the storage locations may be resolved using the technology disclosed in JP 2023-101286 A.

[0043] Once the storage location is determined, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 draws a route from the departure information of the operating route RT1 to the storage location of the previous day, and the number of the operating route of the previous day (for example, RT3-2) is displayed according to the operation cycle (S50).

[0044] Next, as shown in Fig. 10B, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or the operator determines the storage location for the next day's route RT2 as D3 (S60). Once the storage location is determined, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 plots a route from the warehousing information of the route RT2 to the storage location for the next day, and the number of the route for the next day (for example, RT3-1) is displayed in accordance with the operation cycle (S70).

[0045] When these operations are performed for each of the operating routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2, a basic yard plan is created as shown in Figure 11. The basic yard plan is created in accordance with the operation cycle, and is therefore created so that the train sets circulate (so that they can be drawn in one stroke). In Figure 11, a train set that has been stored in storage area D2 leaves along operating route RT1, and after traveling along that day's operating route RT1, enters along operating route RT1. This train set is stored in storage area D1, and the next day, leaves along operating route RT2. Next, the train set leaves along operating route RT2, and after traveling along that day's operating route RT2, enters along operating route RT2. This train set is stored in storage area D3, and the next day, leaves along operating route RT3-1. Next, the train set leaves along operating route RT3-1, and after traveling along that day's operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2, enters along operating route RT3-2. This train set is kept in the original storage location D2, and is released the next day again along the operating route RT1. This operational cycle is repeated on weekdays thereafter. This operational cycle is the basic yard plan. A basic yard plan is also created for holidays in the same way (NO in S80). Once the basic yard plan for holidays has been created, the series of processes ends.

[0046] 12 to 15 are conceptual diagrams showing other examples of the method for creating a basic site plan. In this example, a basic site plan is created including a "backup." The operation cycle information is, for example, RT1, backup, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2. The flow diagram for the method for creating a basic site plan can be basically the same as the flow in FIG. 22, although "backup" is added.

[0047] First, the basic premises plan creation unit 301 adds operation plan information to the base premises information (S10 to S30), as shown in Fig. 9. Departures are made in the order of operation routes RT1, RT2, and RT3-1, and arrivals are made in the order of operation routes RT1, RT2, and RT3-2. The departure times (operation start times) and arrival times (operation end times) of operation routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 are as shown in Fig. 7.

[0048] Next, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or an operator determines the storage locations for the train sets operating on each of the service routes RT1, spare, RT2, RT3-1, and RT3-2 (S40). For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the storage location for the previous day for service route RT2 is determined to be D4. Once the storage location is determined, as shown in FIG. 12, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 draws a route from the departure information for service route RT2 to the storage location for the previous day (S50), and the number of the service route for the previous day (for example, spare) is displayed in accordance with the operational cycle. This determines the storage location for the "spare" on the service route RT2 side.

[0049] Next, as shown in FIG. 13, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or an operator determines the storage location for the next day's service route RT1 as D1 (S60). Once the storage location is determined, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 draws a route from the warehousing information for service route RT1 to the storage location for the next day (S70), and the number of the service route for the next day (for example, spare) is displayed according to the operational circulation. This determines the "spare" storage location for service route RT1. At this time, the "spare" storage location for service route RT2 and the "spare" storage location for service route RT1 must be different in order to circulate the yard route. In this way, the basic yard plan can be created so that the train set circulates (so that it can be drawn in one stroke).

[0050] The spare train set will not be operated that day and will be stored within the base yard. Therefore, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 forcibly switches tracks of the spare train set between storage area D4 on the service route RT2 side and storage area D1 on the service route RT1 side, as shown in Figure 14.

[0051] If the "spare" storage location on route RT2 is the same as the "spare" storage location on route RT1, and the train is stored in the same storage location during spare operation, the in-yard route cannot be circulated, and operational circulation will not be possible.

[0052] Therefore, in this embodiment, the storage location is changed between the start and end of the "spare" period, and the spare train set is forcibly switched tracks. If there is a spare day that is not assigned to a service route in the vehicle allocation plan, the vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302 will change the storage location of the train set corresponding to the spare day at least once.

[0053] Thereafter, for other operation routes, storage locations are determined and yard routes are created in the same way. As a result, the basic yard plan shown in Figure 15 is created.

[0054] In Figure 15, a train set stored in storage area D3 leaves along operating route RT1, travels along that day's operating route RT1, and then returns along operating route RT1. This train set remains in storage area D1, and the next day undergoes inspection and other procedures as a spare operation. In the spare operation, the train set is forcibly switched from storage area D1 to storage area D4. Next, the train set stored in storage area D4 leaves along operating route RT2, travels along that day's operating route RT2, and returns along operating route RT2. This train set is stored in storage area D3, and the next day leaves along operating route RT3-1. Next, the train set leaves along operating route RT3-1, travels along that day's operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2, and then returns along operating route RT3-2. This train set is stored in the original storage area D3, and the next day leaves again along operating route RT1. This operational cycle is repeated on weekdays. This operational cycle is the basic facility plan. A basic facility plan is also created for holidays.

[0055] Figures 16 and 17 are conceptual diagrams showing another example of a method for creating a basic yard plan. In this example, following on from Figure 15, basic yard plans are created for service routes RT3-1 and RT3-2. The operational circulation information is the same as in the examples of Figures 12 to 15. The flow diagram for the method for creating a basic yard plan can basically be the same as the flow in Figure 22, although the incoming information for service route RT3-1 and outgoing information for RT3-2 are added.

[0056] As shown in Fig. 16, in the basic yard plan shown in Fig. 15, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 displays the arrival information of operating route RT3-1 and the departure information of operating route RT3-2. The arrival information of operating route RT3-1 and the departure information of operating route RT3-2 are displayed between the departure information of operating route RT3-1 and the arrival information of operating route RT3-2, as shown in Fig. 7. In this way, the formation of operating route RT3 is operated according to operating route RT3-1 on the same day, then enters the base yard, leaves the yard again, and is operated according to operating route RT3-2.

[0057] Next, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or an operator determines a storage location for the train set that will be stored between the operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2. For example, as shown in Fig. 17, when the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or an operator determines that the storage location will be D2, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 plots a route from the arrival information of the operating route RT3-1 to storage location D2, and also plots a route from the departure information of the operating route RT3-2 to storage location D2. As a result, the yard routes of the operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2 are created, and a basic yard plan is created, as shown in Fig. 17.

[0058] Here, it is preferable that the multiple train sets stored in tandem are those used on service routes with a large difference in their entry times. In this case, the order in which the train sets enter tandem is unlikely to change even if one of the train sets is delayed. Therefore, when the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or the operator determines a storage location, it is preferable to assign a service route with a large difference in entry times to the storage location where the multiple train sets will be stored in tandem. This reduces the probability that the entry order of the multiple train sets stored in tandem will change, and reduces the probability of inconsistent yard routes. For storage locations where the multiple train sets will be stored in tandem, the greater the difference in the entry times of the multiple service routes, the more robust the basic yard plan will be to delays. Note that if there is an inconsistency in the yard routes, the inconsistency can be automatically resolved using the technology disclosed in JP 2023-101286 A.

[0059] FIG. 18 is a table showing an example of a maintenance work plan for train sets, such as inspection or cleaning. Maintenance is performed on train sets parked within the depot during the day. Therefore, the train sets that are the targets of maintenance work are the "spare" train set (hereinafter referred to as the spare train set) and the train set parked within the depot between operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2 (hereinafter referred to as the RT3 train set). The maintenance work location is, for example, two lanes, inspection lanes CD1 and CD2. For example, the RT3 train set undergoes maintenance in inspection lane CD1 between 13:00 and 14:30. The spare train set undergoes maintenance in inspection lane CD2 between 10:00 and 15:30.

[0060] Figure 19 is a diagram showing a basic yard plan in which the work plan of Figure 18 is incorporated into the basic yard plan of Figure 17. As shown in Figure 19, the spare train set and TR3 train set to be worked on will be shunted to inspection lanes CD1 and CD2, respectively, during the work period. Note that, because the spare train set is forcibly shunted while parked, the storage track from which it is shunted at the start of work (e.g., D1) can be different from the storage track to which it is shunted at the end of work (e.g., D4). Furthermore, rather than being parked on storage tracks D1 to D4, TR3 may be parked in inspection lane CD1 from the time RT3-1 enters the yard until RT3-2 leaves the yard.

[0061] Figure 20 shows the basic yard plan when TR3 is kept in the inspection lane CD1. In this basic yard plan, TR3 is kept in the inspection lane CD1 from the time it enters RT3-1 until it leaves RT3-2. This reduces the number of times TR3 has to switch tracks.

[0062] Figure 21 is a conceptual diagram showing the basic yard plan shown in Figure 11 around the time of the date change. Figure 11 displays the basic yard plan mainly focusing on the weekday operation plan. However, if the basic yard plan is redrawn around the time of the date change (for example, 3:00 AM) when the train set is parked in the base yard, the basic yard plan can be drawn as an approximately U-shaped line, as shown in Figure 21.

[0063] For example, a train set that enters via operating route RT3-2 is stored in storage area D2 and leaves the depot the next day along operating route RT1. A train set that enters via operating route RT1 is stored in storage area D1 and leaves the depot the next day along operating route RT2. A train set that enters via operating route RT2 is stored in storage area D3 and leaves the depot the next day along operating route RT3-1. A train set that leaves via operating route RT3-1 enters the depot via operating route RT3-2, so the basic yard plan circulates as follows: RT1, RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2), RT1, RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2), ... Note that in the example of Figure 21, the "spare," entry via RT3-1, and departure via RT3-2 are not shown. However, even when taking into consideration the "spare", the arrival of RT3-1, and the departure of RT3-2, the basic yard plan circulates as follows: RT1, spare, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, RT1, spare, RT2, RT3-1, RT3-2, ... The basic yard plan is stored in the memory unit 200.

[0064] (Creating a vehicle allocation plan) Figure 23 is a table showing the contents of the basic yard plan in Figure 21. One operation cycle of the basic yard plan in Figure 21 can be tabulated as shown in Figure 23. This table shows the operation plan for the previous day (operation on the previous day), the entry time of the operation on the previous day, the operation plan for the next day (operation on the next day), the departure time of the operation on the next day, and the storage locations of the train sets from entry to departure. Note that for convenience, a specific example is shown here in which the "spare" is omitted.

[0065] FIG. 24 is a table showing a vehicle dispatch plan in which vehicle formations are assigned to each day based on the basic yard plan of FIG. 21. The multiple vehicle formations TN1 to TN3 are assigned to different operating routes RT1, RT2, and RT3-1 (RT3-2) on each day while maintaining the operational cycle of the basic yard plan. Therefore, the multiple vehicle formations TN1 to TN3 are assigned to the operating routes RT1, RT2, and RT3-1 (RT3-2) of the operational cycle, shifting them by one. For example, starting from November 28th, vehicle formation TN1 is assigned in the order RT1, RT2, and RT3-1 (RT3-2), while starting from November 28th, vehicle formation TN2 is assigned in the order RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2), and RT1, and starting from November 28th, vehicle formation TN3 is assigned in the order RT3-1 (RT3-2), RT1, and RT2. That is, the multiple formations TN1 to TN3 take turns (alternately) serving the respective operating routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2). In this way, a vehicle allocation plan is created by assigning the operating routes RT1, RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2) of the operational circulation to the multiple formations, shifting them by one each day. The vehicle allocation plan is stored in the memory unit 200.

[0066] (Preparation of implementation site plan) FIG. 25 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a method for creating an implementation premises plan. FIG. 32 is a flow diagram showing an example of a method for creating an additional premises route according to this embodiment. In the event of an unpredictable delay, malfunction, or the like, the vehicle allocation plan may be changed. For example, assume that the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 or an operator replaces the operating route RT2 of the train set TN2 on December 1st in the vehicle allocation plan with the operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2 of the train set TN3, as shown in FIG. 25, in response to a delay in the train set TN2 (S110).

[0067] FIG. 26 is a table showing the revised operation plan after exchanging the operating route RT2 in the vehicle dispatch plan with the operating routes RT3-1 and RT3-2 of the train set TN3. In the revised operation plan, the operational cycle has been disrupted, and for the train set TN2, the operating routes from November 30th to December 2nd are RT1, RT3-1 (RT3-2), and RT3-1 (RT3-2). Furthermore, for the train set TN3, the operating routes from November 30th to December 2nd are RT2, RT2, and RT1. In this case, for the train set TN2, it is necessary to create a new internal route from RT1 to RT3-1 and a new internal route from RT3-2 to RT3-1. For the train set TN3, it is necessary to create a new internal route from RT2 to RT2 and a new internal route (additional internal route) from RT2 to RT1.

[0068] Here, a method for creating an additional on-premise route according to this embodiment will be described.

[0069] Figures 27 to 31 are explanatory diagrams showing an example of a method for creating an additional internal route according to this embodiment. Figure 27 shows the internal route of one unit (RT1, RT2, RT3-1 (RT3-2)) of the original operation circulation shown in B1 of Figure 25. Figures 28 and 29 show the additional internal route required for the operation shown in B2 of Figure 26. Figures 30 and 31 show a table of the additional internal route.

[0070] When an additional premises route becomes necessary, the practical premises plan creation unit 303 creates the additional premises route using a first premises route selected from the existing premises routes in the basic premises plan (S120). The first premises route is an premises route that has the same departure information as the additional premises route's next day's departure information (the operation number and departure time of the next day's operation route). For example, when creating an additional premises route from RT1 to RT3-1, the practical premises plan creation unit 303 sets the premises route RP3, whose next day's departure route is RT3-1, as the first premises route, as shown in FIG. 27.

[0071] 27, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 separates the incoming information RTin2 of the previous day and the outgoing information RTout3-1 of the next day for the yard route RP3 (S130). The outgoing information RTout3-1 includes information from the storage location D3 to the outgoing route of the operating route RT3-1.

[0072] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the delivery information RTout3-1 of the yard route RP3 to set the storage location D3 of the yard route RP3 as the storage location of the additional yard route, and uses the delivery side route from the storage location D3 of the yard route RP3 to delivery as the additional yard route (S140).

[0073] Next, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 selects an internal premises route (second internal premises route) that has the same entry information as the entry information of the additional internal premises route on the previous day (operation number and entry time of the operation route on the previous day) for the entry side of the additional internal premises route (S150). For example, when creating an additional internal premises route from RT1 to RT3-1, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 sets the internal premises route RP2, whose entry side route on the previous day in Figure 27 is RT1, as the second internal premises route.

[0074] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 separates the incoming information RTin1 for the previous day and the outgoing information RTout2 for the next day for the yard route RP2 (S160). Using the incoming information RTin1 for the yard route RP2, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 creates an incoming route from the incoming route to storage location D3 that has already been set on the outgoing route for the outgoing information RTout3-1 (S170). The incoming information RTin1 includes information on the incoming route but does not include information on the storage location.

[0075] As a result, the additional internal route RPADD1 shown in Fig. 28 is created. The additional internal route RPADD1 is the internal route from the operating route RT1 of the set TN2 to RT3-1.

[0076] If it is necessary to create another additional internal route (NO in S180), steps S110 to S170 are repeated.

[0077] For example, when creating an additional premises route from RT3-2 to RT3-1, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 sets the premises route RP3, whose outgoing route on the next day is RT3-1, as the first premises route, as shown in FIG.

[0078] 27, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 separates the incoming information RTin2 of the previous day and the outgoing information RTout3-1 of the next day for the yard route RP3. The outgoing information RTout3-1 includes information from the storage location D3 to the outgoing route of the operating route RT3-1.

[0079] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the delivery information RTout3-1 of the yard route RP3 to set the storage location D3 of the yard route RP3 as the storage location of the additional yard route, and uses the delivery side route from the storage location D3 of the yard route RP3 to delivery as the additional yard route.

[0080] Next, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 selects an internal yard route (second internal yard route) that has the same entry information as the entry information of the additional internal yard route on the previous day (the operation number of the operation route on the previous day and the entry time) for the entry side of the additional internal yard route. For example, when creating an additional internal yard route from RT3-2 to RT3-1, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 sets the internal yard route RP1, whose entry side route on the previous day in Figure 27 is RT3-2, as the second internal yard route.

[0081] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the receiving information RTin3-2 of the yard route RP1 to create an receiving route from the receiving to the storage location D3 that has already been set in the outgoing route of the outgoing information RTout3-1. The receiving information RTin3-2 includes information on the receiving route but does not include information on the storage location.

[0082] As a result, the additional internal route RPADD2 shown in Fig. 28 is created. The additional internal route RPADD2 is the internal route from the operating route RT3-2 to RT3-1 of the set TN2.

[0083] Similarly, when creating an additional yard route from RT2 to RT2 for the train TN3 in Figure 26, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 sets the yard route RP2, whose outbound route for the next day is RT2, as the first yard route, as shown in Figure 27.

[0084] 27, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 separates the incoming information RTin1 of the previous day and outgoing information RTout2 of the next day for the yard route RP2. The outgoing information RTout2 includes information from the storage location D1 to the outgoing route of the operating route RT2.

[0085] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the outgoing information RTout2 of the yard route RP2 to set the storage location D1 of the yard route RP2 as the storage location of the additional yard route, and uses the outgoing route from the storage location D1 of the yard route RP2 to the outgoing route as the additional yard route.

[0086] Next, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 selects an internal route (second internal route) that has the same entry information as the entry information of the additional internal route on the previous day (operation number and entry time of the operation route on the previous day) for the entry side of the additional internal route. For example, when creating an additional internal route from RT2 to RT2, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 sets the internal route RP3, whose entry side route on the previous day in Figure 27 is RT2, as the second internal route.

[0087] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the receiving information RTin2 of the yard route RP3 to create an receiving route from the yard to the storage location D1 that has already been set on the outgoing route of the outgoing information RTout2. The receiving information RTin2 includes information on the receiving route but does not include information on the storage location.

[0088] As a result, the additional internal route RPADD3 shown in Fig. 29 is created. The additional internal route RPADD3 is the internal route from the operating route RT2 of the set TN3 to RT2.

[0089] Similarly, when creating an additional yard route from RT2 to RT1 for train set TN3, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 sets the yard route RP1, whose next day's outbound route is RT1, as the first yard route, as shown in Figure 27.

[0090] 27, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 separates the incoming information RTin3-2 of the previous day and the outgoing information RTout1 of the next day for the yard route RP1. The outgoing information RTout1 includes information from the storage location D2 to the outgoing route of the service route RT1.

[0091] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the outgoing information RTout1 of the yard route RP1 to set the storage location D2 of the yard route RP1 as the storage location of the additional yard route, and uses the outgoing route from the storage location D2 of the yard route RP1 to the outgoing route as the additional yard route.

[0092] Next, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 selects an internal route (second internal route) that has the same entry information as the entry information of the additional internal route on the previous day (operation number and entry time of the operation route on the previous day) for the entry side of the additional internal route. For example, when creating an additional internal route from RT2 to RT1, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 sets the internal route RP3, whose entry side route on the previous day in Figure 27 is RT2, as the second internal route.

[0093] The implementation yard plan creation unit 303 uses the receiving information RTin2 of the yard route RP3 to create an receiving route from the yard to the storage location D2 that has already been set on the outgoing route of the outgoing information RTout1. The receiving information RTin2 includes information on the receiving route but does not include information on the storage location.

[0094] As a result, the additional internal route RPADD4 shown in Fig. 29 is created. The additional internal route RPADD4 is the internal route from the operating route RT2 to RT1 of the set TN3.

[0095] When the creation of all the additional internal routes has been completed (YES in S180), the creation of the additional internal routes is completed.

[0096] The additional premises routes RPADD1 to RPADD4 are incorporated into the vehicle allocation plan and the implementation premises plan.

[0097] The outgoing routes of the additional yard routes RPADD1 to RPADD4 do not conflict because they use existing yard routes. On the other hand, the incoming routes of the additional yard routes RPADD1 to RPADD4 will conflict if the trains cannot actually be stored due to conditions such as tandem storage. When the incoming routes conflict, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 arbitrarily changes the storage locations of the additional yard routes RPADD1 to RPADD4. The change in storage location of the additional yard route may be executed by an operator manually operating the storage plan creation device 101. When the basic yard plan creation unit 301 or the operator determines the storage location, it is preferable to assign a service route with a large difference in entry time to a storage location where tandem storage is performed. This reduces the probability of changes in the order in which multiple trains stored in tandem will enter warehousing, thereby reducing the probability of inconsistent yard routes. In addition, inconsistencies in the inbound routes may be automatically resolved using the technology disclosed in JP 2023-101286 A. If the inconsistency in the receiving route cannot be resolved, the train set is swapped with another train set when it is received into the warehouse.

[0098] Fig. 30 is an implementation yard plan showing the contents of the additional yard routes RPADD1 and RPADD2 of the train set TN2. The implementation yard plan for the train set TN2 in box B2 in Fig. 26 can be expressed as shown in Figs.

[0099] Fig. 31 is an implementation yard plan showing the contents of the additional yard routes RPADD3 and RPADD4 of the train set TN3. The implementation yard plan for the train set TN3 in box B2 in Fig. 26 can be expressed as shown in Figs.

[0100] The implementation site plan creation unit 303 creates an updated implementation site plan by incorporating the implementation site plans (November 30th to December 2nd) in Figures 30 and 31 into the original implementation site plan (November 28th and 29th, December 3rd to 5th). The updated implementation site plan is an implementation site plan that corresponds to the actual operation plan. In this way, the implementation site plan can be created automatically, and can also be updated automatically.

[0101] For the sake of convenience, the creation of the above vehicle allocation plan and implementation yard plan has been explained using the basic yard plan in Fig. 21. However, the above-mentioned method for creating a vehicle allocation plan and implementation yard plan can also be applied to a basic yard plan that includes a backup operation and work plan.

[0102] As described above, according to this embodiment, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 uses information on operating routes and information on the base yard to create a basic yard plan that continuously connects multiple yard routes and enables circular operation. The vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302 creates a vehicle allocation plan by assigning a vehicle formation for each day to each of the multiple yard routes. Furthermore, when a change to the vehicle allocation plan is required, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 creates an implementation yard plan that is suitable for actual operation by creating an additional yard route from the existing yard route. As described above, the storage plan creation system 1 according to this embodiment can automatically create an implementation yard plan using three functions (three steps).

[0103] The basic yard plan is a single circular route that connects multiple operating routes and multiple yard routes in a continuous, unbroken line. Therefore, when a single train runs according to the basic yard plan, it will travel around all the routes in the basic yard plan and then return to the original route. Using such a circular basic yard plan makes it easier to create a vehicle dispatch plan.

[0104] During actual operation, if an additional premises route becomes necessary due to a delay, malfunction, or the like, the implementation premises plan creation unit 303 selects a first premises route having the same outgoing information as the outgoing information of the additional premises route, separates the incoming information and outgoing information of the first premises route, and creates the additional premises route using the outgoing information of the first premises route. The outgoing information of the first premises route includes information on the storage location and the outgoing operation route of the first premises route. Therefore, the additional premises route does not include any contradictions in the outgoing route from the storage location to the outgoing operation route. On the other hand, the ingoing route of the additional premises route may be inconsistent because it uses the ingoing information of the second premises route, which is different from the first premises route. Thus, in this embodiment, if there is a contradiction in the additional premises route, the contradiction is consolidated into only the ingoing route. This reduces the probability that the additional premises route will conflict with other existing premises routes.

[0105] Furthermore, according to this embodiment, when a spare operation used for inspection or the like is included, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 changes the storage location of the train set corresponding to the spare day at least once. This allows the basic yard plan creation unit 301 to create an operation cycle (basic yard plan) that incorporates the spare operation into the basic yard plan.

[0106] In this way, the basic yard plan creation unit 301 creates a basic yard plan as a daily ideal solution for circulating vehicle formations in a single stroke, and the vehicle allocation plan creation unit 302 creates a daily yard diagram using the basic yard plan. This creates a vehicle allocation plan as an initial solution that connects the past and future in a single stroke. Furthermore, the implementation yard plan creation unit 303 applies plans required for actual operations, such as preliminary operation and work information other than the normal operation plan and yard plan, to the vehicle allocation plan and transforms it, creating an implementation yard plan that brings the vehicle allocation plan closer to actual operations. This makes it possible to create an implementation yard plan that can be actually implemented in two steps: creating a vehicle allocation plan as an initial solution, and then transforming the vehicle allocation plan with plans for preliminary operation and work information that are actually required.

[0107] At least a part of the data processing method in the placement planning system 1 according to this embodiment may be configured with hardware or software. When configured with software, a program that realizes at least a part of the functions of the data processing method may be stored on a recording medium such as a flexible disk or a CD-ROM and read and executed by a computer. The recording medium is not limited to removable recording media such as magnetic disks or optical disks, but may also be fixed recording media such as hard disk drives or memories. In addition, a program that realizes at least a part of the functions of the data processing method may be distributed via a communication line (including wireless communication) such as the Internet. Furthermore, the program may be encrypted, modulated, or compressed and distributed via a wired or wireless line such as the Internet, or stored on a recording medium.
