Train Scheduling and Rescheduling in the UK with a Modified Shifting Bottleneck Procedure

Abstract
This paper introduces a modified shifting bottleneck approach tosolve train scheduling and rescheduling problems. The problem is
formulated as a job shop scheduling model and a mixed integer
linear programming model is also presented. The shifting
bottleneck procedure is a well-established heuristic method for
obtaining solutions to the job shop and other machine scheduling
problems. We modify the classical shifting bottleneck approach to
make it suitable for the types of job shop problem that arises in
train scheduling. The method decomposes the problem into several
single machine problems. Different variations of the method are
considered with regard to solving the single machine problems. We
compare and report the performance of the algorithms for a case
study based on part of the UK railway network.
