The article focuses on such a concept as “network topology”, which plays an important role in increasing the efficiency of managing the transportation process on the railway. The authors carry out detailed analysis of such network topologies as star, ring, bus, tree and others, and also explore their potential for improvement of the efficiency of railway transportation management. The work examines the advantages and disadvantages of each topology, and also evaluates their capabilities for optimizing the transportation process. Evaluation and comparative analysis of varieties of different network topologies is a relevant and interesting area of research. The results of the study confirm that the choice of a specific network topology can significantly affect the efficiency of transportation process management. Some network topologies can significantly reduce shipping costs and improve the overall delivery record, while other topologies can have the opposite effect.

The role of railway transport in the modern economy is highlighted in the article. Directions for improving automation and telemechanics devices have been determined: the creation and implementation of modern devices for monitoring track occupancy of a new type, as well as increasing the reliability of track devices to a large extent, and putting into operation systems for interval regulation of train traffic. The importance of such an element of the railway infrastructure as a rail circuit is also determined. The authors of the work revealed the function of track circuits. In addition to this, the article presents an information diagram of the search for failures in an extensive rail circuit of electrical centralization. The concept of a decision device is disclosed. Possible expressions of the Bayes criterion are also considered. A priori probabilities of finding rail lines are singled out. As a result, a decision rule is revealed that leads to the minimization of the average damage.

The paper proposes a methodology for the formation of monitoring of sustainable development of a territory. The existing addition to the concept of sustainable development is presented. This methodology is a recommendation for authorities. The main goal of the proposed methodology is connected with conducting research on socio-economic and environmental development and planning of territories in order to achieve sustainable development and increase inter-regional and intraregional spatial connectivity. The authors give recommendations on the formation of the state monitoring of sustainable development a territory system for the Ministry of Economic Development and Industry of the Irkutsk Region. It is proposed to form a permanent analytical department and give name “Coordination Council for Spatial Development”. The Coordination Council for Spatial Development carries out activities to study the issues of sustainable development of a territory and spatial connectivity. The monitoring results can be used by regional authorities to formulate provisions for achieving the sustainable development of a territory within the framework of formation the Strategy for the socioeconomic development of a region. The algorithm is presented in the form of diagram. The diagram describes the sequence of actions for the formation of provisions for the sustainable development of a territory by assessing the socio-economic, ecological state and the level of territorial connectivity.
