Abstract
In an elevator group supervisory control apparatus, an estimation processing unit determines an estimated in-cage load in departing from a departure floor and estimates at least one of speed, acceleration, and jerk rate of the car in accordance with the estimated in-cage load to determine an estimated arrival time. An assignment unit selects and assigns a car serving as a response to a hall call on the basis of information from the estimation processing unit when the hall call is issued.
