Operations & SimulationsOptimizationDashboard Analytics

This project involves the development and deployment of a discrete event simulation tool designed to optimize train operations within freight and passenger terminals. The model simulates train movements, manages track resources, and provides real-time insights into operational efficiency. It supports both inbound and outbound train tracking, resource allocation, and performance analysis through dynamic data inputs and visual outputs.

Key Capabilities & Achievements
