Abstract: A method and an apparatus for computing allocation decisions in an elevator system is provided. Historical passenger batch journey data relating to the elevator system is obtained, wherein each passenger batch journey includes an origin and a destination floor of the journey, the number of passengers of the journey and the time of the journey. Historical passenger traffic statistics are constructed based on the passenger batch journey data, and expected calls are modelled based on the passenger traffic statistics. The modelled expected call is taken into account in computing subsequent allocation decisions in the elevator system.

Abstract: Modern large buildings and public places are equipped with a plurality of elevators, exits and points of interest for fluent movement. The passenger flows in a building or public place can be traced and modelled by using statistics and information regarding current state of the modelled building or public place. The information derived from this model can be used for controlling elevators, escalators and similar in the building more efficiently. The same information may be used also for guiding passengers in the building or public place to use other transportation means so that the duration high traffic situation can be reduced or sometimes completely avoided.

Abstract: An elevator system includes at least one elevator group control with a destination control system, at least one elevator group having elevators with a different destination range, destination operating panels at each landing comprising an input for issuing destination calls, car operating panels located in the elevators having an input for the input of destination calls, hall lanterns for each elevator indicating the moving direction of the corresponding elevator, a signaling device for each elevator indicating the arrival of an elevator at the landing, whereby the DCS controls the hall lantern means to indicate the moving direction of the elevators and wherein the DCS is further configured to activate the signaling device when elevators of the group(s) arrive at a landing. The DCS is configured to display after the issue of a destination call at the DOP a range identifier of the elevators serving the destination, which range identifier is indicative of the elevator's destination range, and to indicate the next arriving elevator by activation of its signaling device before its arrival at the landing, whereby the range identifier of each of the elevators of the elevator system is located in its vicinity. This elevator system offers sophisticated transport capacity even under conditions where the passengers are not familiar with the use of a destination call system, e.g. on cruise ships.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for a passenger-allocation in a multi-deck elevator group, the decks of which defining elevator cars, respectively, being stacked above each other and being mounted in a car frame to be moved synchronously in an elevator shaft. The method being performed by a control unit to dispatch the elevator cars for serving any passenger call which can be entered as a landing call or a car call, wherein a call can create a number of allocation proposals calculated by means of an optimization algorithm carried out by the control unit for dispatching an elevator to a passenger call. The invention is characterized in that said allocation proposals are then processed in a routing algorithm defining one serving deck to be taken for the allocation of a specific call, which routing algorithm is restarted either for any further incoming call independent of whether said further incoming call is creating new elevator allocation proposal(s) or when a reallocation timeout has passed. The invention further relates to a computer program carrying out the inventive method.

Abstract: A method for controlling a passenger flow in a building includes: dividing a group of elevators to sub-groups; receiving a service call; selecting a sub-group to provide a service and generating an indication for indicating the selected sub-group; selecting a first candidate elevator; evaluating a second candidate elevator by comparing the second forecast time to the first forecast time; selecting the second candidate elevator to provide the service if the second forecast time is less than the first forecast time. The evaluation is continued until a selection is locked for the service call due to at least one characteristic relating to the elevator system. The invention also relates to a group controller, a computer program product, and an elevator system.
