PRINTSIPY FORMIROVANIYA YZLOVYKH VYCHISLITEL'NYKH TSENTROV NA ZHELEZNODOROZHNOM TRANSPORTE

Presented are the essential principles for establishing the functional structure and informational and technical needs, as well as the data transmission network arrangement, of terminal computer centers. The results of research have shown that it is expedient to establish an average of three or four terminal computer centers per railroad, with each center serving railroad industrial enterprises on two or three divisions of the railroad. The essential workload of these computer centers consists of the direct technical control of classification yards, large freight yards, track sections, and locomotive and car depots. The terminal computer centers represent the lowest of the three levels of the nationwide traffic management system known as the Automated Railroad Transportation Control System (ASUZhT).
