INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN TRANSPORT

(Industry 4.0; digital transport corridors and platforms; modeling and simulation transport systems, etc.)

Abstract

The aim of the article is to consider the significant importance of the use of information technology in modern society as the main technical tool for the development of transport systems. It also addresses the expansion of economic relations among countries and the acceleration of integrative processes, emphasizing the transportation system’s role as a fundamental pillar of each country’s national economy and sosio-economic essence of transport services.

In the rail transport it has been investigated using smart trains, smart locomotives and smart wagons in the connection of rail transport with other types of transport for safety of trains, transmission capacity of the lines, speed of shipping control and also increasing employee productivity through computer systems of automated control systems. It has been explored the importance of monitoring the level of service more smoothly and qualitatively with the mutual integration of these systems as well.

The novelty of the article the novelty of the article is that information technologies in transport are integrated into transport systems of the 4th Industrial revolution, researching the development of an intelligent management system for modeling digital transport corridors and platforms, and achieving optimization of traffic flow and traffic management of the application of intelligent transport. In conclusion, in the future, smart locomotives should be integrated with smart cars, they are local controls for all components of the car – braking equipment; electrical equipment, service equipment, etc. satellite technology should be used to locate moving objects and monitoring systems. These technologies should be used in conjunction with radio communication and radar sensing of railway facilities from satellites and determine their coordination. In the future, connected management should become the basis of a single transport complex for all transport sectors and all forwarders for operational monitoring and forecasting of situations for all mobile units and each link involved in the technological process. The application of intelligent transport will provide by predicting traffic flow and optimizing traffic management.
