Modeling the Impact of Technology and Arranging Commuter Passenger Transportation by Competing Modes of Transport

The aim of the paper is to improve and to optimize the system for arranging commuter passenger transportation and improving the quality of transport services by modeling the impact of technology and arranging commuter passenger transportation on their volumes in a competitive environment in the transport market. The processes of development of any system associated with the modernization or the introduction of new technology and equipment have common properties. Accordingly, commuter transport should be considered in relation to the external environment. It is advisable to solve problems of this class specifically with the help of a systematic approach. The commuter passenger transportation system is difficult to study, because it contains a large number of components that are in various relationships. The components of this system are passengers of different social groups, vehicles, infrastructure facilities, financial flows, information flows, etc. With reference to the above-mentioned subject, the study of the system for arranging commuter passenger transportation should be approached from the standpoint of system analysis, when a system is understood as a set of elements that are in relationships and connections with each other and form a certain integrity and unity. In order to mathematically describe the system for arranging commuter passenger transportation, it is necessary to describe the properties of the input stream of homogeneous events - the structure of the system, the characteristics of the service, the flow of orders. The theory of waiting lines is applied in this. The methods of the theory of waiting lines are well studied and widely used to solve various problems in transport. This also applies to the commuter passenger transportation industry. The probability of preference for choosing a rail transport by a potential passenger, taking into account the totality of technological, organizational, and economic parameters that affect the traffic flow and reflect the conditions for the transportation of passengers by various modes of transport.
