Operational planning in local public transport using interactive graphic systems
The introduction of modern data processing for the solution of traffic problems was originally accompanied by wholly overrated assessments of the potential fully automated systems. Both developer and user of such systems have revised, or will have to revise fundamentally their first euphoria with regard to the promise of automation.
Only in the most recent past has there been acknowledgement that the following fundamental traffic process‐control principles have to be respected:
An information system must be structured to cultivate the optimal co‐operative potential in man.
The structure and extent of a system must not be based on technical electronic data processing possibilities, but rather on the specific requirements of the process.
Concrete requirements for the conception of a computer system can be derived directly from these theoretical fundamentals. Such requirements categorised under the term “Computer Aided Organisation” (CAO), are here described for the preparation of timetables and duty rosters for local public transport.
