INTERCITY TRANSPORTATION EFFECTIVENESS MODEL, DOCUMENTATION VOLUME I. COMPUTER PROGRAM ORGANIZATION AND DESIGN SPECIFICATION

The Intercity Transportation Effectiveness (ITE) computer programs are composed of a Data Base System, System Executive, and the ITE Model programs. The Data Base Programs are used to create, update, and print the data base. The System Executive is used to control the flow of 'in process' data between the various programs of the ITE Model and to save intermediate and final results. The model programs are structured in five modules, namely, Passenger Demand, Cargo Demand, Routes, Network Assignment, and Timetable Building. Saved results can be printed by means of a Report Generator Program. The system is programmed in Extended FORTRAN 4 for execution on a CDC 6600 computer. The volume contains a summary description of each module of the ITE model, together with general descriptions of the programs comprising each module. Brief descriptions of the subprograms comprising each are also included. (Author Modified Abstract)
