چکیده

This paper describes an ongoing project that involves DISI, the Computer Science Department of Genova University, and Ansaldo Segnalamento Ferroviario, the Italian leader in design and construction of signalling and automation systems for railway lines. We are implementing a multiagent system that monitors processes running in a railway signalling plant, detects functioning anomalies, provides diagnoses for explaining them, and early notifies problems to the Command and Control System Assistance. Due to the intrinsic rule-based nature of monitoring and diagnostic agents, we have adopted a logic-based language for implementing them.

Applying Frequency Response method for contact Rails Fault Diagnosing in Ungrounded Electrical Railway System

Abstract General faults in regular electrical railways system could be detect by implementing the specific protection functions such as ground fault or sensitive earth fault. Otherwise, in ungrounded electrical railway systems which using both feeding and return contact rail at the same time, fault detection cannot done with above-mentioned function. Due to recent growth in electrical railway ...

Modeling of Multiagent Based Railway System using BDI Logic

Multi-Agent based modeling & simulation is an evolving paradigm for solving real life problems for solving real life problems for the last one decade. In this paper, we model the manually controlled Indian Railway to a multi agent based automated system which is robust in nature and provide a fully automated collision avoidance guarantee. We consider individual entity such as station, junction ...

Monitoring and Diagnosing Multistage Processes: A Review of Cause Selecting Control Charts

A review of the literature on cause selecting charts (CSCs) in multistage processes is given, with a concentration on developments which have occurred since 1993. Model based control charts and multiple cause selecting charts (MCSCs) are reviewed. Several articles based on normally and non-normally distributed outgoing quality characteristics are analyzed and important issues such as economic d...

Distributed Contingency Logic and Security

In information security, ignorance is not bliss. It is always stated that hiding the protocols (let the other be ignorant about it) does not increase the security of organizations. However, there are cases that ignorance creates protocols. In this paper, we propose distributed contingency logic, a proper extension of contingency (ignorance) logic. Intuitively, a formula is distributed contingen...
