Funded Activity Summary

Model-driven development and verification of railway interlocking control logic. Railway interlockings are an essential and safety-critical part of all rail infrastructure. The results of the proposed project are intended to reduce the cost of the development and improve the quality of railway interlockings control logic. This will contribute to safer and more cost-effective rail transport in Queensland, Australia and internationally. This project has the potential to improve both development and V&V capabilities for organisations that plan to use model-driven architecture (MDA) for safety-critical systems. While the industrial usage of MDA is currently in its infancy, forecasts predict that MDA will fundamentally change software development practice, especially in developed countries like Australia.
