Abstract

© 2019 by SCITEPRESS - Science and Technology Publications, Lda. The throughput and carrying capacity is the important characteristics of the railway lines which shows transportation opportunities. This is impossible to plan the freight traffic on the net without it. This paper introduces a simple cloud railroad simulator for cargo trains for calculating the throughput and carrying capacity. For simulation purposes the user need to fill in all necessary data in a browser, and the results will be shown on the server side. Once data has been entered into the program, the system allows to obtain a more accurate representation of reality of the railway system.
