Software and processes to control real life train traffic must adhere to many safety and security policies to minimize the risk of accidents and passenger injuries.
This includes setting signals and switch points as well as defining train routes over possible track combinations.
This session gives
- a live presentation controlling a toy train with Eclipse
in order to
- show some principles of real life train safety and control.
Objective of the presentation:
This presentation has two aspects:
1) Controlling toy trains with Eclipse. There will be a demonstration of a working train setup in place during the talk.
2) Applying real life train safety mechanisms to a demonstration system. With the sample setup some aspects of safety critical train control will be shown based on the experience with Eclipse RCP based train control software.
