The goal is to develop mathematical models that describe how various processes at stations and in dispatching centres impact train delay and how capacity planning can be improved. The models should be used as decision support when designing stations and planning traffic and traffic control. The objective is to improve on-time performance and, in the long term, make railway traffic more efficient, safe and attractive.
Qualifications
You hold a master's degree or equivalent. You are interested in mathematical programming and model development, are an analytical person, have experience in programming and are open to new challenges. Experiences from applications of operations research and knowledge about the railway system are meritorious. Fluent spoken and written English is a requirement. Good knowledge in Swedish, spoken and written, is an advantage.
