• Abstract:
  The Rehabilitation and Maintenance System - State Optimal Fund Allocation Program II (RAMS-SOFA-2) has been developed to aid the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation in determining the optimal statewide strategy and fund allocation district by district. The program is specially designed to make decisions on rehabilitation and maintenance work on Interstate and spine networks on a statewide basis. The program uses a dynamic programming technique. The complete documentation on the program and an example problem are presented in this report. The model developed and the program can be utilized to determine the fund allocation to the residencies of an individual district.
