In our previous blog post, we looked at some of the challenges commonly faced in delivery of rail control projects and proposed a remedy: the use of detailed and clear requirement specifications that enables automated development and more efficient safety verification. We will now take a closer look at this process for signaling systems design [...]
The delivery of rail control projects often suffers from high costs, unpredictable schedules and delays. Moreover, the life cycle of modern, computerized, signaling systems is often shorter than those of traditional relay-based systems, with higher maintenance costs. At the same time the need for new, more advanced rail control systems is growing, to optimize the [...]
