dc.description.abstractThis thesis represents the first iteration of a design cycle adapted to provide the framework for the investigation of Automated Dispatch Vehicle Information and Location Systems (ADVIL). The first phase of the process, system analysis, served to identify the system components and define the requirements related to them. In the subsequent phase, system design, alternative means of fulfilling the requirements were examined. This resulted in a strategy for system development that outlined the optimum solution approaches, as well as the software and hardware required to support the proposed approaches. System implementation was in the form of a prototype. The prototype system included a vehicle scheduling algorithm, communication software and a graphics package. The graphics package demonstrated how the locations of fleet vehicles would be displayed for the dispatcher ,and provided a zoom option. Because this was a first version prototype, it should be viewed as a tool for exploration as opposed to a final product. As such, an evaluation of it generated a host of ideas for extending the capabilities and potential of the original system concept. These ideas are presented as recommendations for future research.
