SIGNAL & DRAHT: An approach to traffic management and interlocking simulation in railway and underground railway operations

Simulations play a key role in the development of any real-world system. They use real data or scenarios to mimic the functions of these systems. Developers and operators use simulations every day during the development and operation of systems in order to test specific scenarios and identify how the systems will respond under such circumstances. Simulations can be used to predict outcomes for any hypothetical situation or future occurrence of a scenario. During system development, the key benefit of using simulation is a cost-effective system with reduced risks. During testing, it is the performance, efficiency, and reliability of the system. Once the system has been deployed, the developers can use simulations to explore specific scenarios based on the input data.
