Have you ever stranded on a train station for hours without a train? Did you think, how hard can it be? This is the moment to have an answer to your questions. Camiel Simons, simulation researcher at NS (Dutch Railways), will speak about simulation models for large disruptions on the railway network. He will tell how mathematics, computer science and gaming are used to improve train operations in case of a disruption.
