Railway system is a word that includes rolling stock, railway infrastructure and signalling System in passenger transfer and rail freight. This system get higher competitiveness in energy efficiency part than other transfer system. But it is comprehensive system has latent loss of lives and property by big accident. First of all, to control this comprehensive system and to confirm safety of it, we need human resource management. This research will suggest how to apply efficiency safety verification and certification system to railway system. human resource management systems is defined as three kinds that is recruitment and management, ensure personnel's competencies and fitness, activity of assigning suitable responsible person for work.

A computer simulation program to evaluate the performance of railway systems and train operation plans and the effects of new technologies is provided. The program has the functions of tracing the movements of trains on railway network following the indication of railway signalling system and obeying all kinds of operation rules. An object-oriented technique is applied to model railway system effectively, and it is expected that the program code can be reused easily for other railway simulation programs. Dedicated graphic user interface displaying the simulation outputs by animation during simulation process makes the program convenient to use. Simulation results on the train operations on Kyung-bu line show the proposed program is promising.

The railway signaling system consists of computerized vital devices. Therefor it is important to validate the required functions of developed signaling system. To verify the condition and functions of signaling functions, the plentiful laboratory test is required. To achieve this, the emulation S/W for signaling test-bench is needed. The object-oriented concept for trackside signaling equipments emulation is described in this paper.

The issue of safety insurance in PES(Programmable Electronic Systems) has been provoked because PES is difficult to define failure modes which are appeared in many different ways. But the PES applications extend rapidly in various areas. One of the solutions for PES safety insurance is voting which PES is used by comparing the outputs of several PES. The time synchronization of the PES is necessary for this reliable voting. The voting must be carried out with the outputs from same time inputs. There are several methods for time synchronization of the PES. In this paper, we discussed two modes of the time synchronization which are mutual synchronization of several PES and using UTC(Universal Time Clock).

To determine operational requirement, the environmental condition for an equipment must be investigated, and to certify equipment's normalized operation, appropriate test must be carried out under the considered environmental condition. The actual environmental conditions to which equipment is likely to be exposed are normally complex and will comprise a number of environmental factors and corresponding parameters, When defining the environmental conditions for a certain application it is, therefore, necessary to list the factors involved and select the appropriate severity. The operational environment is structured in two separate such as requirements, guidance and test specifications. For the preparation to determine operational requirement, operational environment of railway signalling equipment is investigated.

A representation technique of a given track topology is required by many software applications in railway technology such as signalling system simulator. To achieve these, the concept of double vertex graph architecture is proposed. These are composed of pairs of vertices and node between the single vertices. Double vertex graph architecture can be understood as a extension of classical graphs. In developed railway signalling simulation software, it is shown that track topology can be represented by proposed algorithm in a efficient way. Especially it makes sure that these are suitable technique for representing and implementing of switch, routes which can be introduced some mistake in classical graph algorithm.

Recently, it is caused by environment change that is increased the number of lightning occurrence and the strength of lightning current is coming to be strong little by little. The performance of grounding system depends on how to construct. Specially the common grounding systems which uses the buried earth cable must be constructed by very well qualities because it is difficult to measure earth resistance and to manage the buried earth cable. Common grounding systems and independence grounding systems could be composed different. Against railway signalling equipment which like this is used from the environment lower part which is various it presents a standard grounding systems, and very it is hard job. We will present improvement through this paper that review grounding systems configuration condition of railway signalling equipment.

In order to improve the speed of railway, several parameters and/or technical issues, which are affecting speed improvement negatively, need to be considered in addition to the enhancement of physical performance of the railway system such as maximum speed, speed at curve, and speed at turnout track. The parameters under complicated situation of railway system are from the areas of rolling stocks, track, power system, signalling, etc. In general, two different aspects of technical issues can be evaluated; Technical issues in the hardware aspect and technical issues in the software aspect. The hardware parameters include running performance, braking performance, and power performance, while the software factors are rules, regulations, and riding quality. In this investigation, a comparison study between hardware and software aspects in technical issues was conducted to provide technical information on the amendment of railway speed-up regulations.

The induced voltage on the telecommunication cable generated by nearby electric railway system may bring about telecommunication errors and safety accidents. In order to reduce the induced voltage and to achieve communication reliability, the effect of the shield cables and the recent double-track railway systems on the inductive interference should be investigated. This paper analyzes the parameters which seriously influence the induced voltage on the telecommunication cables which run parallel with a AT-fed electric railway line, and provides a simulation-based approach to estimate the amount of the induced voltage. Simulation results indicate that the induced noise voltage generated by a double-track railway decreases by 18 % compared to that generated by a single-track railway, showing the screening effect by nearby track. The induced noise voltages on the 50%-shielded cable and 15%-shielded cable decrease to 1/8 and 1/15 of the induced voltage on the non-shielded cable, respectively. A meaningful shield effect is achieved and the induced voltage is minimized by the double-track railway and the shielded cable.

It is demanded to produce the safety evidence documents in other to approval safety characteristic of railway signaling system which stands is included, it is demanding from IEC 62425 standards. Also it is express clearly that safety assessment if signaling system has to be verification of these safety evidence documents. This Safety Case has the results of safety activity through system life-cycle, such as hazard lists, hazard identification and analysis, risk assessment and countermeasure, verification and test results. Consequently, first of all, the analysis and verification of these Safety Case documents has to be accomplished to approval and acceptance of signaling system safety. And also if the safety assessor was want, it is able to be experimental test auditory which is, arbitrary faults injection test, to above described documents verification. In this paper, the contents and architecture of Safety Case are presented as first steps of safety assessment technology establishment for railway signaling system.
