For a long time, the core control computer adopts in interlocking system is the special customized high-grade safety computer, for example, the SIMIS of Siemens, the EI32 of Nippon Signal, and so on. Along with the rapid development of elect

To overcome the flaws of the high-grade special customized computer, the U.S. Department of Defense has put forward t

8、archical structure. According to the function of equipments, the system can be divided to the function of equipments; the system can be divided into three layers as shown in figure1.Figure 1 Architecture of Signal Interlocking System3 Component-based safety computer design3.1 Design strategyThe desi

9、gn concept of component-based safety critical computer is different from that of special customized computer. Our design strategy of SIC is on a base of fault-tolerance and system integration. We separate the SIC into three layers, the standardized component unit layer, safety software layer and the

10、 system layer. Different safety functions are allocated for each layer, and the final integration of the three layers ensures the predefined safety integrity level of the whole SIC. The three layers can be described as follows:(1) Component unit layer includes four independent standardized CPU modul

11、es. A hardware “SAFETY AND” logic is implemented in this year.(2) Safety software layer mainly utilizes fail-safe strategy and fault-tolerant management. The interlocking safety computing of the whole system adopts two outputs from different CPU, it can mostly ensure the diversity of software to hol

12、d with design errors of signal version and remove hidden risks.(3) System layer aims to improve reliability, availability and maintainability by means of redundancy.3.2Design of hardware fault-tolerant structureAs shown in figure 2, the SIC of four independent component units (C11, C12, C21, C22). T

13、he fault-tolerant architecture adopts dual 2 vote 2 (2v2×2) structure, and a kind of high-performance standardized module has been selected as computing unit which adopts Intel X Scale kernel, 533 MHZ. The operation of SIC is based on a dual two-layer data buses. The high bus adopts the standar

14、d Ethernet and TCP/IP communication protocol, and the low bus is Controller Area Network (CAN). C11、C12 and C21、C22 respectively make up of two safety computing components IC1 and IC2, which are of 2v2 structure. And each component has an external dynamic circuit watchdog that is set for computing s

15、upervision and switching. Figure 2 Hardware structure of SIC3.3Standardized component unitAfter component module is made certain, according to the safety-critical requirements of railway signal interlocking system, we have to do a secondary development on the module. The design includes power supply

16、, interfaces and other embedded circuits.The fault-tolerant processing, synchronized computing, and fault diagnosis of SIC mostly depend on the safety software. Here the safety software design method is differing from that of the special computer too. For dedicated computer, the software is often sp

17、ecially designed based on the bare hardware. As restricted by computing ability and application object, a special scheduling program is commonly designed as safety software for the computer, and not a universal operating system. The fault-tolerant processing and fault diagnosis of the dedicated comp

18、uter are tightly hardware-coupled. However, the safety software for SIC is exoteric and loosely hardware-coupled, and it is based on a standard Linux OS. The safety software is vital element of secondary development. It includes Linux OS adjustment, fail-safe process, fault-tolerance management, and

19、 safety interlocking logic. The hierarchy relations between them are shown in Figure 4. Figure 4 Safety software hierarchy of SIC3.4Fault-tolerant model and safety computation3.4.1 Fault-tolerant modelThe Fault-tolerant computation of SIC is of a multilevel model:SIC=F1002D(F2002(Sc11,Sc12),F2002(Sc

20、21,Sc22)Firstly, basic computing unit Ci1 adopts one algorithm to complete the SCi1, and Ci2 finishes the SCi2 via a different algorithm, secondly 2 out of 2 (2oo2) safety computing component of SIC executes 2oo2 calculation and gets FSICi from the calculation results of SCi1 SCi2, and thirdly, acco

21、rding the states of watchdog and switch unit block, the result of SIC is gotten via a 1 out of 2 with diagnostics (1oo2D) calculation, which is based on FSIC1 and FSIC2.The flow of calculations is as follows:(1) Sci1=F ci1 (Dnet1,Dnet2,Ddi,Dfss)(2) Sci2=F ci2 (Dnet1,Dnet2,Ddi,Dfss)(3) FSICi=F2oo2 (S

22、ci1, Sci2 ),(i=1,2)(4) SIC_OutPut=F1oo2D (FSIC1, FSIC2)3.4.2 Safety computationAs interlocking system consists of a fixed set of task, the computational model of SIC is task-based. In general, applications may conform to a time-triggered, event-triggered or mixed computational model. Here the time-t

23、riggered mode is selected, tasks are executed cyclically. The consistency of computing states between the two units is the foundation of SIC for ensuring safety and credibility. As SIC works under a loosely coupled mode, it is different from that of dedicated hardware-coupled computer. So a speciali

24、zed synchronization algorithm is necessary for SIC.SIC can be considered as a multiprocessor distributed system, and its computational model is essentially based on data comparing via high bus communication. First, an analytical approach is used to confirm the worst-case response time of each task.

25、To guarantee the deadline of tasks that communicate across the network, the access time and delay of communication medium is set to a fixed possible value. Moreover, the computational model must meets the real time requirements of railway interlocking system, within the system computing cycle, we se

The safety computation flow of SIC is shown in Figure 5.Figure 5 Safety computational model of SIC4. Hardware safety integrity level evaluation4.1 Safety Integrit

27、y As an authoritative international standard for safety-related system, IEC 61508 presents a definition of safety integrity: probability of a safety-related system satisfactorily performing the required safety functions under all the stated conditions within a stated period of time. In IEC 61508, th

The SIL1 is the lowest, and SIL4 highest.According to IEC 61508, the SIC belongs to safety-related systems in high demand or continuous mode of operation. The SIL of SIC can be evaluated via the probability of dangerous per hour. The p

Conclusions In this paper, we proposed an

31、available standardized component-based computer SIC. Railway signal interlocking is a fail-safe system with a required probability of less than 10-9 safety critical failures per hour. In order to meet the critical constraints, fault-tolerant architecture and safety tactics are used in SIC. Although

32、the computational model and implementation techniques are rather complex, the philosophy of SIC provides a cheerful prospect to safety critical applications, it renders in a simpler style of hardware, furthermore, it can shorten development cycle and reduce cost. SIC has been put into practical appl

34、提出：我们应该采用商业标准，来取代军事准则和满足客户需要的标准。与此同时，有许多关于在电子设备中采用开放式系统结构的探索与实践。美国和欧洲已经做了很多关于利用利用划算的容错计算机来代替专用电脑在航天和其它安全关键领域。近年来，在航空航天、工业、交通和其它安全关键领域，利用标准化部件正逐步成为一种新的趋势。2 铁路信号联锁系统2.1信号联锁系统的功能信号联锁系统的基本功能是通过控制信号设备，保护列车运行安全。如控制道岔的转换、信号的开放和控制列车通过车站，它通过一种联锁处理规则控制线路。自铁路运输诞生以来、信号联锁系统已经经历了手动信号、机械信号、继电器联锁和现代计算机联锁系统。2.2信号联锁系

35、统的构架一般来说，联锁系统具有层次结构。根据设备的功能，系统可分为三层，如图2.1所示。图2.1 信号联锁系统的结构3 安全计算机的组件设计3.1设计策略模块化安全关键计算机组件的设计理念不同于那些特殊定制的计算机。我们对安全联锁计算机的设计理念是基于系统的容错性和系统的综合需求。将其分为三层：标准化组成单元层、软件安全层与系统层，并给每一层分配不同的安全功能，最终将三层集成，并确保系统达到预定的安全完整性水平。三层可以描述如下： (1) 标准化组成单元层包括四个独立的标准化CPU模块。这一层实现硬件“安全”逻辑联锁。 (2) 软件安全层主要用故障-安用策略和容错算法。由于一个完整的安全联锁系

36、统采用两个不同的CPU输出的结果，所以最能确保软件设计某一版本，在设计时存在的多种错误，清除潜在的风险。 (3) 系统层，旨在提高系统的可用性和冗余系统的可维护性。3.2容错结构的硬件设计如图3.1，安全联锁计算机由四个独立单元组成(C11，C12，C21，C22)。采用双容错结构设计(2×2取2)结构，计算单元选用高可靠性、高效率的模块，采用了英特尔XScale内核，533兆赫的处理器。安全联锁计算机的操作基于两层数据总线上。高速总线采用标准以太网结构和TCP / IP通信协议、低总线控制器局域网(CAN)。C11、C12和C21、C22分别组成两个独立的安全计算部件IC1和IC2

37、，并构成2乘2取2结构，并且每一部分都有计算机监控和外部开关电路动态监测。图3.1 SIC硬件结构3.3标准化组成单元在研究清楚组成模块后，根据铁路信号联锁系统的临界安全性要求，我们必须做一个二次开发的模块。该设计主要包括电源、接口和其他嵌入式电路。安全联锁计算机的容错计算、处理、故障的同步诊断主要依靠安全软件。这个安全软件的设计方法不同于其他专用的特殊计算机。在专用特殊计算机中，软件通常基于单一裸露硬件而特别设计，限于计算处理能力和软件兼容性，在电脑上特殊的调度程序一般基于安全性软件设计，而不是一个普通的操作系统。专用计算机中容错处理系统和故障诊断系统通过硬件耦合。然而，安全联锁计算机中的安
