Toma de Decisiones para Situaciones de Emergencia en Servicios Ferroviarios de Viajeros

Abstract

This project aim is developing a prototype tool as demonstrator of a decision support system (DSS) for emergency situations on trains, in the particular case of high speed passenger trains and especially focused on traffic in tunnels. A system has been developed which includes emergency situations that require evacuation or transfer of the train, as most general case, that is flexible, so as to allow the extension to any train journey and conditions of passage, and that is to also fast, facilitating the decision-making in real time. The system has an intuitive user interface, through windows or forms created with the programming environment Microsoft Visual C#, which allows communication between the agents on board the train and the management of the possible incidents. Finally, a simple, yet powerful and flexible application has been obtained to serve as a basis for developing a complex decision support system that integrates all the factors involved in the resolution of emergency situations on passenger rail services.
