Verification of Railway Interlockings in Scade
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present two modelling approaches for the application of model checking to verify railway interlockings. The first translates so-called Ladder Logic into Scade language, the second models a segment of railway from scratch. The verification tool used is Scade.

Specifying Railway Interlocking Requirements for Practical Use
An essentially complete formal specification of safety requirements for railway interlockings has been developed. The work is part of as project with the Swedish National Rail Administration investigating the feasibility of using formal methods for the analysis of interlockings in a production setting. An overview of the specification is given and two ongoing case studies on verifying interlock...
متن کاملVerification of Solid State Interlocking Programs
We report on the inclusion of a formal method into a design process in industry. Concretely, we suggest carrying out a verification step in railway interlocking design between programming the interlocking and testing this program. Safety still relies on testing, but the burden of guaranteeing completeness and correctness of the verfication is in this way greatly reduced. We present a complete m...
متن کاملAutomated Verification of Signalling Principles in Railway Interlockings
In this paper we present a verification strategy for signalling principles for the control of a railway interlocking system written in ladder logic. All translation steps have been implemented and tested on a real-world example of a railway interlocking system. The steps in this translation are as follows: 1. The development of a mathematical model of a railway interlocking system and the trans...
متن کاملVerification of Railway Interlocking - Compositional Approach with OCRA
In the railway domain, an electronic interlocking is a computerised system that controls the railway signalling components (e.g. switches or signals) in order to allow a safe operation of the train traffic. Interlockings are controlled by a software logic that relies on a generic software and a set of application data particular to the station under control. The verification of the application ...
متن کاملRule-Based Consistency Checking of Railway Infrastructure Designs
Railway designs deal with complex and large-scale, safety-critical infrastructures, where formal methods play an important role, especially in verifying the safety of so-called interlockings through model checking. Model checking deals with state change and rather complex properties, usually incurring considerable computational burden (chiefly in terms of memory, known as state-space explosion ...
