碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 土木工程學研究所 === 90 === Demand of intercity transportation in Taiwan is increasing because of economical and recreational factors. Intercity bus is the important part of intercity public transit. At present, many intercity bus companies schedule and dispatch their vehicles manually. However, this strategy has no economical benefits and cannot meet the demand for companies. As a result, much research on intercity bus scheduling and dispatching optimization was conducted but few have been implemented for real life applications. The objective of this research is to analyze and design the intercity bus management system that meets the requirement of the intercity bus companies. The system is analyzed and designed in an object-oriented fashion. It is implemented using a platform independent language-Java with J2EE’s architecture for stability, availability, extensibility and maintainability. The system integrates six subsystems including computer-aided scheduling, station management, route management, driver management, vehicle management, and scheduling table management subsystems to help to improve the operational efficiency of intercity bus companies.
