Aims of IAROR
IAROR was founded in 2005 and has currently more than 400 members. IAROR
combines the expertise of academic and professional railway research
with the aim of enhancing the quality of service for railway passengers
and customers, improving the effectiveness and efficiency of capacity
management, timetabling, traffic management and ensuring the safety of
railway operations. IAROR stimulates innovative theoretical approaches,
high-tech concepts, new technological developments and dynamic decision
support systems that contribute to a higher flexibility, performance and
punctuality of trains operating on single or dedicated lines and in
heterogeneous networks. IAROR contributes to the development of new
international standards for railway capacity and traffic management by
integration of the state-of-the-art from different scientific
disciplines as engineering, mathematics, physics, economics and computer
science. IAROR is a Network of Excellence in the field of railway
operations research.
IAROR has organized the International Conference on Railway Operations
Modelling and Analysis (ICROMA) every two years since 2005. The previous
nine conferences were held at Delft University of Technology, the
Netherlands; Leibniz University Hannover, Germany; ETH Zürich,
Switzerland; University of Rome, Italy; Technical University of Denmark,
Denmark; Chiba Institute of Technology, Japan; IFSTTAR, France;
Linköping University, Sweden; and Beijing Jiaotong University, China.
The 10^th international conference RailBelgrade 2023 will be held at
University of Belgrade, Serbia.

* Railway performance: punctuality, stability, robustness, resilience
* Railway safety analysis and risk assessment
* Railway signalling and control systems
* Train trajectory optimization and train control
* Driver Advisory Systems and Automatic Train Operation
* Digital Automated Train Operation
* Passenger flows in stations, on platforms, and dwell times
* Passenger assignment
* Rail freight transport
* Rail yard operation and design
* Multimodal transport systems
* Energy saving in railways

Paper Submission and Important Dates
/RailBelgrade 2023/ submission options include:
* /Type A: Research paper/
* /Type B: Industrial paper/
The authors of research papers (Type A) should submit a full paper of a
maximum length of 20 pages in ICROMA format including figures and
references, while the authors of industrial papers (Type B) can submit a
paper of at most 10 pages. The full research papers will be reviewed
according to the standard scientific criteria: originality, consistency,
relevance, and technical writing proficiency. The review of the
industrial papers will retain the former criteria except scientific
originality. The purpose of an industrial paper is to showcase
innovations and applications of research and development in the railway
industry. The main author of an industrial paper is not affiliated with
an academic institute.
Publication
All accepted submissions will appear in the Book of Abstracts and their
full papers will be available to conference participants. The authors of
the top 10 best research papers selected by the Scientific Advisory
Committee will be invited to submit their paper to a special issue of
the Journal of Rail Transport Planning & Management.
Keynotes and Mini Course
Leading railway scientists from different disciplines and professionals
from the railway industry will deliver keynote speeches. A mini course
on railway transport will be offered optionally to young researchers on
April 25th, 2023. For more information, please refer to Keynotes
