Abstract
In this book, we have discussed the optimal trajectory planning problem for trains and the real-time train scheduling problem for urban rail transit systems. The optimal trajectory planning problem for a single train and for multiple trains with constraints caused by signaling system has been investigated. Furthermore, the train scheduling based on passenger demand for urban rail transit systems has been considered in this book. There are still many issues to be tackled. However, the conflict between modeling accuracy and computation efficiency is one of the most important aspects that should be taken into account during the research.
