SISCOG is a software company that provides decision support systems for resource planning and management in transportation companies, with special experience in the field of railways. ==History== The initial ideas for founding SISCOG started to be discussed in 1982 while João Pavão Martins and Ernesto Morgado were Ph.D. students in artificial intelligence at the State University of New York at Buffalo. These ideas were influenced by the success of the first commercial expert systems, and led to the company's incorporation in 1986. Through these last 20 years, SISCOG has developed several software products that offer users different levels of decision support, from just validating all the constraints pertaining the problem and performing helpful calculations while the users build the plan (manual mode), to pointing out directions for achieving a good solution (semi-automatic mode) or even achieving an optimised solution by just themselves (automatic mode). These products use a combination of artificial intelligence and operational research optimisation technologies to produce nearly optimal solutions that fit the customer needs. SISCOG has implemented its decision support systems in companies like the Portuguese Railways, Dutch Railways, Finnish Railways, Norwegian State Railways, Danish State Railways, S-Tog - Copenhagen Suburban Trains, London Underground and Lisbon Metro. SISCOG's products have been awarded in 1997 and 2003 with the "Innovative Application Award" given by the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI)〔("CREWS_NS - Scheduling Train Crews in The Netherlands" ), article in AI Magazine, Volume 19, Number 1 (1998)〕〔("TPO: A System for Scheduling and Managing Train Crew in Norway" ), Paper published by AAAI (2003)〕 and was laureated with the Computerworld Honor in 2006.〔(Computerworld Honor "CREWS Case Study" )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Siscog」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
