Statistics

In order to evaluate and compare the performance of different scheduling algorithms, we provide three statistical measures for each simulation:

• Time Loss (seconds): The time lost due to driving below the ideal speed (which is different for each road and vehicle). Scheduled stops do not count.
• Duration (seconds) : The time vehicles needed to accomplish their routes.
• Route Length (meters): The length of the vehicles' routes. This measure is dependent only on the simulation map, not on the chosen scheduling algorithm.

For each measure, we provide four statistical values:

• Total: The sum of this measure for all vehicles in the simulation.
• Average: The average of the measure over all vehicles in the simulation.
• Min: The minimum value of this measure between the vehicles in the simulation.
• Max: The maximum value of this measure between the vehicles in the simulation.
