IVU Traffic Technologies AG Press release For the specialist and business press Berlin, 10 September 2012 Vietnam Railways opts for IVU.rail Planning and controlling the daily deployment of 380 locomotives and 5,000 Wagons effectively is no easy task. Especially not when the rail network stretches the length of the land and provides services for a population of some 91 million. In Vietnam, the state railway Vietnam Railways (VNR) has therefore opted for software support from IVU Traffic Technologies AG. In future, the state railway will be planning and controlling its daily operations and its passenger information service with IVU.rail – the software solution specially developed for rail clients. VNR has chosen to use the full range of IVU products, and IVU.rail is being implemented with all its components and add-ons. A special feature of this project is the variety of the rail transport operations that Vi- etnam Railways has to carry out on a daily basis. For example, rules and regulations dif- fer considerably between passenger and goods transport, and these have to be integrated in the software system. A special new module will be developed which provides cargo customers of VNR with real-time information about the status of their orders via a Web interface. Passengers should also find it much more convenient to use the rail services. In future, IVU.realtime will provide information to the platforms of the main- line stations about the updated departure times of their trains. Vietnam Railways will also be using state-of-the-art technology for transmissions between the control centre and the driver. Voice communications will in future be by means of ‘Voice over IP over GPRS’. The data rates of this technology are much higher than conventional analogue radio systems. Voice and data transmission will be possible in parallel, and the use of public networks reduces the operating costs. The locomotives are being equipped with the necessary on-board computers by IVU. 1 IVU Traffic Technologies AG “The railways are the most important form of public transport in Vietnam. Many people depend on them, particularly in the rural areas”, explains Martin Müller-Elschner, CEO of IVU AG. “I am very proud that with this key project we have now taken an- other step forward in the Asia-Pacific region, following on from the successful instal- lations in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur und Adelaide.” Contact: Madlen Dietrich Corporate communications IVU Traffic Technologies AG Bundesallee 88, 12161 Berlin, Germany Tel +49 30 85906-386 E-mail: [email protected] www.ivu.de IVU Traffic Technologies AG has been working for more than thirty years with some 300 software engi- neers to ensure that transport in the world’s major cities operates reliably and on time. People and vehicles in expanding cities are continually on the move – a logistical challenge which calls for intelligent and relia- ble software systems. The standardised software products of the IVU.suite and tailor-made IT solutions are used to plan, optimise and control the scheduling of vehicle fleets and personnel. Other systems support the choice of branch locations or ensure that election results are determined correctly. IVU. Systems for vibrant cities. 2 .

J. Viet. Env. 2012, Vol. 3, No. 1, pp. 34-37 DOI: 10.13141/jve.vol3.no1.pp34-37 Management of organic solid waste from rail operation by the Vietnam railways: the cur- rent situation and possible solutions Hiện trạng và giải pháp quản lý rác thải hữu cơ trên đường sắt Việt nam Research a rticle Nguyen, Thi Hoai An* Department of Rail Transportation and Economic, University of Transport and Communications, Lang Thuong, Dong Da, Hanoi, Vietnam. The quick social economic development of Vietnam stimulates great demand of quality as well as quantity on transport service by the increasingly growing needs of customer for transportation. The railway passenger transport is currently still an important branch of a country’s transport system because it is safer, more eco-friendly and much more efficient in comparison to another means. However, the increasing of the number of passengers is the main causes of fast increasing waste amount from the rail service. The aim of this paper is to study how the organic waste from rail service is managed and treated today by the Vietnam railways. The paper ends with some proposal solutions for treating and disposing of organic waste by applying renewable energy technologies for climate change mitigation to protect human health and the environment. Sự phát triển nhanh chóng của nền kinh tế Việt nam dẫn đến nhu cầu vận chuyển hành khách ngày càng tăng mạnh về số lượng cũng như chất lượng dịch vụ. Vận chuyển hành khách bằng đường sắt hiện tại ở Việt nam vẫn đóng vai trò quan trọng trong hệ thống vận tải quốc gia do lợi thế an toàn cao, thân thiện với môi trường và lợi ích cao của nó so với các phương tiện khác.

Trainings Provided to Least Developed Countries
Training Programmefor Railway personnelfrom LeastDeveloped Countries and other south and south-EastAsian Countries 7. In the first meeting of chief executivesof railways of The Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-SectoralTechnical and Economic Cooperatign (BIMSTEC) held in Delhi in september 2004,Indian Railways made a generous offer to train the railway personnel from the member countries, free of cost.This was in recognitionof the specialproblems faced by the comparatively smaller railway systems of these countries in providing training to their personnel. 2' This important initiative was brought to the notice of the parliament while prescnting the railway budget in February 2005.The House was informecl that this gesture was widely appreciated by the member countriesof BIMSTEC.The first training coursewas held in March 2005in tl'reNatic-rnal Academy of Inclian Railways, vadodara (the then Railway StaffCollege). 3' Drawing cor-rfidencefrom the successof the courses,in February 2006 the Parliament was informed that the training programme had rcccived ove'rwhelming response and generateclgoodwill fgr Indian Railways. The decision to extend the training programme to Mek,ng- canga c..peration countrieswas informed to the House. 4. with the finalization of the Trans-Asian Railway network, the regional transport networks have emerged at its important building blocks. Keeping this in view, Malaysia and indonesia were also brought under the ambit of the training programme since their railway systems form a part of the southerncorridor of the network. 5. Meanwhile, India's engagementwith the south Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries,which had languishecifor quite some time, was revived. Keeping this in view, it was announcedin the Railway Budget speechin February 200gthat the training programme would be extendedto SAARC countries.

7. MARKETING MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS Selling, Pricing
ESCAP: Guidelines for Development of Railway Marketing Systems and Procedures, Chapter 7 7. MARKETING MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS Selling, pricing, providing advice to customers in the area of logistics and materials handling, and promoting the railway product are the main “doing” elements of Marketing in a railway context. It is important that these activities should operate in harmony with one another, in order to achieve maximum impact in the marketplace. The responsibility for ensuring that these activities complement one another is that of the head of the Marketing unit. 7.1 The Sales Function A railway organization which is customer-focussed will have a team of representatives, a sales force, whose primary (and crucial) role is to maintain continual liaison with customers. In conjunction with operating personnel at the field level (freight and passenger terminals, local stations), this sales force provides the main point of contact between the railway and its customers and as such can make or break the railway system’s image in the eyes of its clientele. Selling, or the generation of new business for the railway, is just one of the functions of the sales force. Other major salesforce functions include: Customer Servicing, or representing the needs of existing customers to those units of the railway organization (e.g.. Operations) which are responsible for service delivery Sales Reporting, or reporting on business, physical volume ( passenger/passenger km or tonnes/tonne km trends within assigned sales territories or market segments Market Intelligence, or the collection of information on the tariffs, services and activities of competitors The sales force will be most productive if its individual members are permitted to specialize in particular market segments.
