Emergency management of urban rail transit systems using parallel control

This paper describes a parallel train control system intended for use in emergency management of urban rail transit emergencies. The system utilizes information fusion, expert systems and cloud computing. The system would be cost effective, due to is ability to interact with the real system by means of parallel execution. It would aid in keeping costs down for verification of emergency operations, validation of emergency management and planning policies, and emergency medical personnel training.
