Waterborne RESEARCH: DISC

Project Acronym: DISC
Type of contract: Research Study
Project title: DEMONSTRATION OF ISC-DISC
Main contractor: DANISH RAILWAYS
Type organisation: Industry
Country: DK
Start date & duration: 1996-12-01 - 6 months
Area: Waterborne
Relevant tasks: 6.3
Total cost in kECUs: 604
Total EU contribution in kECUs: 604


Objectives of research

Main objectives:

a) Establishment of the 'skeleton' for a future European/International ISC Standard, including the identification of the availability of suitable technologies and the identification of future operational-, safety- and efficiency-improving functions to be adopted by the standard. The work described will build on applicable ATOMOS II, MiTS, COMFORT and MBB research and results, but will not be limited to those in terms of width. b) Establishment of the minimum requirements for the feasibility demonstration and validation of the core technologies involved in the suggested standard, and their integration into one coherent system. The demonstrator is foreseen to include representative real-time systems, non real-time systems and representative, advanced applications utilizing systems data, all operating in a fully integrated manner. The demonstrator will as a minimum comprise the means necessary to fully integrate ATOMOS II, MiTS, COMFORT and MBB, but will not be limited to those in terms of scope.

Demo Sites:

None
