13.4.7  Decision Support System (DSS):

                        (a) Based  on  the  constraints  &  logic  given  by  Railways,  system  will  give
                            optimized decision to admit or dispatch particular train at entry/exit points of
                            a particular section.

                        (b) Train  running  at  the  time  of  disruption:  System  will  suggest  effect  of
                            disruption on train service. Based on constraints, facilities & logic provided
                            by  railways,  system  will  give  solution  for  running  of  trains,  diversion,
                            cancellation or regulation of train services.

                        (c) System will be able to detect conflicts like:

                            (i)  Usage of the same platform;

                            (ii) Usage of the same routes;


                            (iii) Usage of incompatible routes;

                            (iv) Usage of the same section and same directions;

                            (v) Usage of the same section and opposite directions.


                        (d) In  case  of  conflicts,  TMS  display  a  specific  icon  on  the  train  graph  and
                            generates  a  solution  which  consists  in  the  rescheduling  of  the  involved
                            activities.


               13.4.8  Various TMS Terminals may be provided, as required, as under:


                        (a) TMS Terminal for Signal Fault Controller at OCC: Remote monitoring of
                            status  of  signalling  equipment  at  stations  and  in  Block  Sections  will  be
                            provided on these terminals. This will include logging in of events in central
                            system, generating alarms, alerts etc. Signalling equipment failure alarms
                            as  decided  by  the  Engineer  along  with  category  will  be  available  on  the
                            terminal. It will be possible to acknowledge the alarms by the user.


                        (b) TMS Terminals for Track Controller and Traction Power Controller at
                            OCC:  Equipment  failure  alarms  specific  to  Track  or  Traction  Power,  as
                            decided  by  the  Engineer  along  with  category  will  be  available  on  the
                            respective terminals. It will be possible to input remarks/Information pertaining
                            to various unusual occurrences e.g. failures & delays to operation etc.

                        (c) TMS  Maintenance  Terminal at OCC: The Maintenance Terminal  will be
                            used  for  supervisory  functions  of  the  network  and  for  observing  any
                            required nodes and their configuration at any time. Displays of equipment
                            faults,  communication  failure  occurring  anywhere  in  the  OCC  or  field
                            network will be available. Failure alarms will also be given.


                            It  will be  possible  to bypass  any  node  if  so  required  and  configure  other
                            terminals from this terminal.
