Abstract

Boolean equations are used in computer-based interlocking to ensure safe and efficient operation of complex transportation and industrial systems. Boolean equations use boolean algebra to represent and control the interlocking logic within these systems. They define the relationships between various inputs and outputs to make critical decisions for safe system operation. Inputs include sensor data, switch positions, train locations while outputs control signals like track switching and signal indications. By representing the system’s behavior as a set of logical equations, robust interlocking rules can be created that prevent conflicting actions and maintains safety. Boolean equations are a tool in computer based interlocking system, enable the precise specification and control safety critical operations. They provide the logic to prevent accidents and ensure reliable and efficient operation of transportation and industrial systems. This paper describes about the boolean equations, their implementation methodology, validation mechanism and advantages in safety critical systems.
