Modelling and simulation of train schedule and operation

A modelling and simulation study was carried out to examine the current performance of train scheduling and operation of Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB). The objectives of this study were to measure the performance of KTMB operation according to the current schedule and available resources by bu...
