Conflicts Project created!

The Automatic Solver for Railways-related conflicts has been created with the aim of making a prototype for solving automatically railways-related conflicts.

The tool is focussed on solving conflicts appeared in real-time. The tool can help the railway operator in deciding what action has to be taken in order to minimize the impact of the chosen solution.

Due to the complexity of the problem (NP hard complex problem type), the key point is how to apply the best prune strategy in order to decrease the size of the search space to explore, without loosing potential optimal solutions in doing so.

One of the major constraints that the tool has to be complaint with is the response time in which the tool has to offer to the operator the best solution found.

Several algorithms will be implemented and can be configured into the tool.
