Description

  The present invention relates to a program generation method, and more particularly to a program generation method for controlling an object moving on a trajectory.

  With the development of computer control, train operation management has changed from conventional traffic signal control by station staff to automatic traffic signal control by a railway operation management system. The railway operation management system has been developed by automating conventional station staff work with a computer, and control of traffic lights is executed for each station which is a management unit of station staff work. In the railway operation management system, the traffic lights are controlled by a route control system.

  Here, in the electronic interlocking system that is a subsystem of the railway operation management system, a technology for checking the rationality that can be done in units of one-track route from the track wiring and interlocking table and generating an interlocking database that can be used by the electronic interlocking system is disclosed. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1). The electronic interlocking system is a kind of railway security device, and is a system that controls a traffic light and a switch that are interlocked with each other according to interlocking logic.

  The route control device needs to construct a program according to the line wiring of the station, but since the line wiring of the station is various, a unique program is currently developed for each line section or each station. In addition, when the track wiring is repaired, it is necessary to modify the program. However, in recent years, programs have become larger due to the complexity of line wiring and the sophistication of control, and it has become difficult to secure human resources by the method of building a unique program for each line section or station. As a result, program quality is lowered, development is prolonged, and costs are increased.

  Therefore, there is a need for a method for developing a route control system and its program by a common method even if the line wiring is different in a line section or a station.

  Furthermore, the driver in the railway system manually drives the train. For this reason, there may occur a case (overrun) where the train stops beyond a predetermined stop position at the stop station of the train. Since overrunning can occur, the route control system in the railway system must have a function to prevent a collision or derailment of the train when overrunning occurs (overrun protection function). A method for automatically developing a program for realizing the running protection function is required.

  It is an object of the present invention to provide a method or system for providing the above-described route control system, and a route control program and route control having a common overrun protection function for line sections or stations having different line wiring.

  When the train overruns from the block section, the area of the track on which the train is expected to collide or derail is outside the block defined in advance. In other words, when an overrun occurs, the train overruns outside the block, so the overrun protection function is defined by a relationship that is different from the relationship between the two blocks. (Running protection area) needs to be applied.

  The course control system according to the present embodiment acquires a geometric relationship between one obstruction overrun protection area and another obstruction or other obstruction overrun protection area, and executes control logic according to the obtained geometric relation. By selecting, a program for controlling a train entering a block having an overrun protection area is generated. Thus, a program having an overrun protection function is generated.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a railway operation management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  The railway operation management system shown in FIG. 1 is a system that monitors the position of a train and the state of equipment such as traffic lights and switches. The railway operation management system is a system that manages the train operation based on the monitoring result and the train operation plan.

  The railway operation management system shown in FIG. 1 includes a route control device 9900, a planning system 9999, a ground device 9920, a train 9930, and a ground facility group 9940. The ground equipment group 9940 shown in FIG. 1 includes a track circuit 9941, a traffic light 9942, and a switch 9943.

  The planning system 9910 may be connected to a plurality of route control devices 9900. Further, the route control device 9900 may be connected to a plurality of ground devices 9920.

  The route control device 9900 receives the train diagram information determined by the planning system 9910 via the network, and holds the received train diagram information. The course control device 9900 receives the state of the ground facility group 9940 collected by the ground device 9920 via the network, and holds the state of the received ground facility group 9940.

  The route control device 9900 is installed on the route of the train 9930 with reference to the current position of the train 9930 collected from the track circuit 9941 and information such as the departure time or the planned route included in the train schedule information. The traffic light 9942 or the switch 9943 is controlled via the ground device 9920.

  The course control device 9900 includes a course control program generation unit 100 described later. The course control program generation unit 100 generates a program for operating the course control apparatus 9900.

  In the following, the route control device 9900 has a route control system. However, the route control system of this embodiment may be a system implemented by the route control device 9900 and a device connected to the route control device 9900 via a network.

  Specifically, a route control program is generated by a device connected to the route control device 9900 via a network, and the route control device 9900 installs the generated route control program to itself, so that the ground device group 9940 may be controlled.

  The planning system 9910 is a system that supports creation of a plan related to the operation of the train 9930 such as a train schedule, a vehicle operation plan, and an inspection plan and a maintenance plan. The planning system 9910 is connected to the route control device 9900 via a network.

  The ground device 9920 is connected to the route control device 9900 via a network. The ground device 9920 performs an inversion control of the traffic light 9942 and the switch 9943 in accordance with the control request transmitted from the route control device 9900. Further, the ground device 9920 monitors the state of the traffic light 9942 and the switch 9943 (positioning or upside down) and the state of the track circuit 9941 (falling or landing), and transmits the monitoring result to the course control device 9900.

  The train 9930 has a safety device for automatically stopping or automatically controlling the train 9930, such as ATS (Automatic Train Stop) or ATC (Automatic Train Control).

  The train 9930 also has on-board devices such as an information management system that collects, displays, and records detailed operation states and failure information in the train 9930. The train 9930 transmits information that the on-board device has to the ground device 9920 via digital radio.

  In the following description, the ground device 9920 determines the on-line position of the train 9930 based on the state of the track circuit 9941. However, for example, the on-board device of the train 9930 may calculate or measure the position of the train 9930 on which the train 9930 is mounted and transmit the calculated position to the ground device 9920 via digital radio. Then, the ground device 9920 may determine the current position of the train 9930 based on the position transmitted from the on-board device of the train 9930.

  The route control program 1400 is a program that is generated by the route control program generation unit 100 included in the route control device 9900 and operates the route control device 9900.

  The course control program 1400 determines how to control the traffic light using the plan information received from the planning system 9910 and the information regarding the ground facility group 9940 received from the ground device 9920. Then, the course control program 1400 requests the ground device 9920 to perform the progress display control of the traffic light 9942 according to the determination result.

  The course control program 1400 holds information on the track as a set of blocks. Further, the line includes a plurality of line elements, and the block includes a plurality of line elements.

  Here, the blockage is a protection section of one traffic light. That is, the blockage is a section in which one traffic light ensures that there are not a plurality of trains 9930.

  Further, the term “closure” refers to the area of the line from the first inner track circuit to the final inner track circuit installed in the inner section of the traffic light. In addition, the inward section in this embodiment is synonymous with the protection section of a traffic light.

  FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the operation of the course control program 1400 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  FIG. 2 includes a diagram showing an arrangement of the track 9001 where the train 9930 is located and a diagram showing a block diagram where the train 9930 is located as a graph in the railway operation management system in the present embodiment.

  A train T9031 and a train U9032 illustrated in FIG. 2 are the train 9930 illustrated in FIG. Further, the traffic lights A to F shown in FIG. 2 are the traffic lights 9942 shown in FIG. Train T9031 is scheduled to travel along route 9033.

  2 includes a block A 9011, a block B 9012, a block C 9013, a block D 9014, a block E 9015, and a block F 9016. In addition, a train U9032 is on the block B9012, and a train T9031 is on the block A9011.

  The traffic light A is a traffic light of block A9011, and the traffic light B is a traffic light of block B9012. In addition, the traffic light C is a traffic light for the block C9013, and the traffic light D9021 is a traffic light for the block D9014. Further, the traffic light E is a traffic light of the block E9015, and the traffic light F is a traffic light of the block F9016.

  The traffic signals (signals A to F) are devices for instructing the driver or commander permission to enter the train for each block. For example, each traffic light indicates to the driver or commander an instruction to permit the train 9930 to enter each block (train permission) by displaying a green signal (progress indication). Further, each traffic signal indicates an instruction for prohibiting the train 9930 from entering each block (not permitted to enter the train) to the driver or commander by displaying a red signal (stop display).

  For example, when the traffic light D9021 shown in FIG. 2 is a progress indicator, the train U9032 can enter the block D9014. However, when the traffic light D9021 is in the stop indication, the train U9032 cannot enter the block D9014.

  The course control program 1400 realizes control of the traffic lights using a method of reservation of closing by the train 9930. Here, the reservation of the block by the train 9930 means that the route controller 9900 determines the next train 9930 to be closed.

  When the block is reserved, the route control device 9900 transmits a request to the ground device 9920 to change the traffic signal having the reserved block as the protection section to the progress display. The reservation for closing is started from the closing point where the train 9930 is located, and is performed in the order from the closing point where the train 9930 is located along the route of the train 9930.

  For example, when the reservation process of the block is started from the train T9031 shown in FIG. Reserve.

  The course control program 1400 ends the reservation process when the reservation process fails. For example, when the reservation of the block E9015 fails, the course control program 1400 does not reserve the block F9016 or later.

  In the course control program 1400, three types of course determination, order management, and collision and derailment prevention are defined as control principles of the course controller 9900. Specifically, the course control program 1400 includes control logic for realizing each control principle.

  Each control logic included in the course control program 1400 is associated with a geometric pattern type (described later) defined by the relationship between the two blocks. When the reservation process for the block is performed, the course control device 9900 executes control logic associated with the geometric pattern type including the reserved block.

  For example, a geometric pattern 9041 is defined for the block B 9012 and the block C 9013 shown in FIG. In addition, a geometric pattern 9042 is defined for the block D9014 and the block E9015 by the processing of this embodiment described later.

  Here, when the block B 9012 or the block C 9013 included in the geometric pattern 9041 is reserved, the path control device 9900 executes control logic corresponding to the path determination included in the path control program 1400.

  Further, when the block D9014 or the block E9015 included in the geometric pattern 9042 is reserved, the course control device 9900 executes control logic corresponding to the order management of the course control program 1400.

  When any one of the block B9012, the block C9013, the block D9014, and the block E9015 included in the geometric pattern 9041 and the geometric pattern 9042 is reserved, the path control device 9900 causes the path control program 1400 to collide. And control logic corresponding to derailment prevention is executed.

Is a geometric pattern type indicating “the starting point of the block 1 and the starting point of the block 2 and the landing point of the block 1 and the landing point of the block 2”. This corresponds to the fact that starting point 1 (271) and starting point 2 (273) overlap in FIG. 14W and that landing point 1 (272) and landing point 2 (274) overlap.

  The geometric pattern type “arrival / departure point coincidence” shown in FIG. 14W indicates that the number of endpoints of the block 2 included in the block 1 (area 2543) is “0” as the geometric pattern classification standard of the geometric pattern determination table 254.

Pattern type. In FIG. 14W, this corresponds to the direction of the block 1 and the block 2 being the right direction.

  In addition, since the number of branching units is not included in the geometric pattern classification standard of this embodiment, the number of branching units illustrated in FIG. 14W is information that is not necessary for specifying the geometric pattern type. However, the geometric pattern type “matching landing point” can be realized without a branching unit.

  In the present embodiment, “23” is assigned as the geometric pattern type identifier to the geometric pattern type “departure / arrival point match”.

  Further, in the geometric pattern type in which the area 2540 of the geometric pattern determination table 254 indicates “32”, the directional relationship between the block 1 and the block 2 (area 2547) of the geometric pattern type “matching landing point” is reversed. Geometric pattern. However, since it is impossible to physically configure the geometric pattern type in which the area 2540 is “32”, the area 2548 of the row in which the area 2540 of the geometric pattern determination table 254 is “32” “Impossible” is stored.

The presence / absence (region 2592) indicates “included”, and the presence / absence of inclusion 2 of the block 2 in the overrun protection region of block 1 (region 2593) is the overrun geometric pattern type indicating “not included”. In FIG. 15C, landing point 2 (274) is included in the overrun protection area of Block 1 and start point 2 (273) is not included in the overrun protection area of Block 1. And corresponding.

  FIG. 15D is an explanatory diagram illustrating an overrun geometric pattern type “including landing points” according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The overrun geometric pattern type “including landing points” illustrated in FIG. 15D is the overrun geometric pattern type of the row in which the area 2590 of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 illustrated in FIG. 13 indicates “4”.

  The overrun geometric pattern type “arrival / departure point inclusion” shown in FIG. 15D is an overrun protection area in which the presence / absence of a common area (area 2591) is “block 1” as the overrun geometric pattern classification standard of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259. And a part of the protection area of the block 2 are common to the overrun geometric pattern type. In FIG. 15D, this corresponds to the fact that the block 2 has a common area with the overrun protection area of the block 1.

  Further, in the present embodiment, “4” is assigned to the overrun geometric pattern type “including landing point” as the identifier of the overrun geometric pattern type.

  FIG. 15E is an explanatory diagram illustrating an overrun geometric pattern type “overrun area intersection” according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The overrun geometric pattern type “overrun area intersection” shown in FIG. 15E is the overrun geometric pattern type of the row in which the area 2590 of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 shown in FIG.

  The overrun geometric pattern type “overrun area crossing” shown in FIG. 15E is an overrun protection with the presence of a common area (area 2591) as the overrun geometric pattern classification standard of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259. This is an overrun geometric pattern type indicating that a part of the overrun protection area of the area 2 and the block 2 is common (however, the common area is not shared with the protection area of the block 2). This is because, in FIG. 15E, the block 1 and the block 2 do not have a common area in the block 1 overrun protection area and the block 2 overrun protection area, and the block 1 overrun protection area and the block 2 Corresponds to the overrun protection area having a common area.

  In addition, the overrun geometric pattern type “overrun area intersection” shown in FIG. 15E is used as the overrun geometric pattern classification standard of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259, and the landing of the block 2 on the overrun protection area of the block 1 This is an overrun geometric pattern type in which the presence / absence of inclusion (region 2592) indicates “not included” and the presence / absence of inclusion of the block 2 into the overrun protection region of block 1 (region 2593) indicates “not included”. This corresponds to the fact that the starting point 2 (273) and the landing point 2 (274) are not included in the overrun protection area of the block 1 in FIG. 15E.

  In the present embodiment, “5” is assigned to the overrun geometric pattern type “overrun area intersection” as the identifier of the overrun geometric pattern type.

  It should be noted that the overrun geometric pattern type in the row in which the area 2590 of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 indicates “6”, “7”, and “8” is inconsistent between the classification criteria, and physically Overrunning geometric pattern type that cannot be realized. Therefore, a value indicating “unrealizable” is stored in an area 2594 of a row where the area 2590 indicates “6”, “7”, and “8”.

  FIG. 16 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The geometric pattern-control logic table 300 is a table including each geometric pattern indicated by the geometric pattern determination table 254 and the type of control logic applied to each geometric pattern. The geometric pattern-control logic table 300 includes an area 3000, an area 3001, and a control determination type.

  An area 3000 is an identifier that uniquely indicates each row of the geometric pattern-control logic table 300. The identifier indicated by the area 3000 corresponds to the identifier assigned to each geometric pattern.

  An area 3001 indicates a geometric pattern type. The value stored in the area 3001 corresponds to a value other than “unrealizable” stored in the area 2548 of the geometric pattern determination table 254. That is, values indicating 23 geometric pattern types are stored in each row of the area 3001 of the present embodiment.

  The control determination type is an area indicating which control logic type is applied to each geometric pattern. The control determination type includes an area 3002 to an area 3004.

  An area 3002 indicates whether or not a control logic type for selecting a reservation target block is applied. An area 3003 indicates whether or not the order determination control logic type is applied. An area 3004 indicates whether or not the control logic type of the block check is applied.

  In the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 shown in FIG. 16, “x” indicates that the control logic type need not be applied. In the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 shown in FIG. 16, “◯” indicates that the control logic type needs to be applied.

  Here, the control logic type of the reservation target block selection is a control logic type that sets both two blocks constituting the geometric pattern as a reservation target by the same train 9930. For this reason, when the train 9930 enters any starting point of the geometric pattern block to which the control logic type of the reservation target block selection is applied, the train 9930 includes any of the block included in the geometric pattern that has entered the train 9930. May also enter.

  Specifically, the geometric pattern that needs to be applied to the control logic type of the reservation target block selection is a geometric pattern in which one landing point overlaps with the other closing point, or two blocking patterns. This is a geometric pattern with overlapping starting points.

  The geometric pattern in which the landing point of one block overlaps the origin of the other block is, for example, the geometric pattern type “forward connection” shown in FIG. 14L, the geometric pattern type “reverse connection A” shown in FIG. 14M, The geometric pattern type “reverse connection B” shown in FIG. 14N, the geometric pattern type “reverse connection C” shown in FIG. 14O, and the geometric pattern type “deadlock A” shown in FIG. 14V. This is a geometric pattern.

  Further, the geometric pattern in which the two origins of blockade overlap is, for example, the geometric pattern type “course selection A” shown in FIG. 14P, the geometric pattern type “course selection B” shown in FIG. 14Q, and the geometry shown in FIG. 14R. The geometric pattern is classified into one of the pattern type “Course selection C” and the geometric pattern type “Matching point” shown in FIG. 14W.

  The sequence determination logic is such that when a train 9930 enters one of the blocks constituting the geometric pattern, control is performed so that the train 9930 does not enter the other block, and further, the order of the train 9930 entering the block is controlled. Control logic type. The geometric pattern to which the order determination logic is applied is a geometric pattern that can change the order of the train 9930.

  Specifically, a geometric pattern that requires order determination logic is a geometric pattern in which the origin of one block is neither duplicated nor included in the other block.

  The geometric pattern in which the starting point of one block is not overlapped or included in the other block is, for example, the geometric pattern type “intersection A” shown in FIG. 14A, the geometric pattern type “intersection B” shown in FIG. 14B, Geometric pattern type “end point blockade A” shown in FIG. 14E, geometric pattern type “end point blockade B” shown in FIG. 14F, geometric pattern type “end point blockade C” shown in FIG. 14I, geometric pattern “end points” shown in FIG. It is a geometric pattern classified into any one of the blockade A ”and the geometric pattern type“ end-end blockade B ”shown in FIG. 14T.

  The block check logic is a type of control logic that controls the train 9930 not to enter the other block when the train 9930 enters one of the blocks forming the geometric pattern. Specifically, a geometric pattern that requires block check logic is a geometric pattern where the origin of one block is not duplicated or contained in the other block, or the landing point of one block is the other block. A geometric pattern that is neither duplicated nor included.

  For this reason, the geometric pattern to which the block check logic is applied includes a geometric pattern that requires order determination logic, and further includes a geometric pattern type “starting point blockade A” shown in FIG. 14C and a geometric pattern type “starting point” shown in FIG. 14D. It includes a geometric pattern classified into one of a blockade B ”, a geometric pattern type“ reverse connection A ”shown in FIG. 14M, and a geometric pattern type“ route selection A ”shown in FIG. 14P.

  The control logic types applied to each geometric pattern are not limited to the three control logic types shown in FIG. For this reason, the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 may include information on control logic types other than the control logic types shown in FIG.

  FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 is a table including each overrun geometric pattern indicated by the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 and the type of control logic applied to each overrun geometric pattern. The overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 includes an area 3100, an area 3101, and a control determination type.

  An area 3100 is an identifier that uniquely indicates each row of the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310. The identifier indicated by the region 3100 corresponds to the identifier assigned to each overrun geometric pattern.

  An area 3101 indicates the overrun geometric pattern type. The value stored in the area 3101 corresponds to a value other than “unrealizable” stored in the area 2594 of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259. That is, values indicating five overrun geometric pattern types are stored in each row of the area 3101 of the present embodiment.

  The control determination type is an area indicating which control logic type is applied to each overrun geometric pattern, and has the same meaning as the control determination type in the geometric pattern-control logic table 300. The control determination type includes an area 3102 to an area 3104.

  An area 3102 indicates whether or not a control logic type for selecting a reservation target block is applied. An area 3103 indicates whether or not the order determination control logic type is applied. An area 3104 indicates whether or not the control logic type of block check is applied.

  “×” in the overrunning geometric pattern-control logic table 310 indicates that the control logic type need not be applied, similarly to “x” in the geometric pattern-control logic table 300. Further, “◯” in the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 indicates that the control logic type needs to be applied, as in “◯” in the geometric pattern-control logic table 300.

  There is no overrun geometric pattern for which the control logic type of the reservation target block selection needs to be applied. This is because the train 9930 that has entered the overrun protection area does not need to reserve a block other than the block that has the overrun protection area that has entered. Therefore, “x” is stored in the area 3102.

  The order determination logic in the overrun geometric pattern is the same as the order determination logic in the geometric pattern. That is, the course control program 1400 applies the sequence determination logic according to the overrun geometric pattern type to the two blocks constituting the overrun geometric pattern, so that the train 9930 enters the overrun protection area of one block. And the order in which the train 9930 enters the other blockade or other blockade overrun protection area.

  An overrun geometric pattern that requires order determination logic is an overrun geometric pattern in which the starting point of one block is not included in the overrun protection area of the other block. The overrun geometric pattern requiring the order determination logic in FIG. 17 is, for example, the overrun geometric pattern type “no landing point included” shown in FIG. 15A, the overrun geometric pattern type “landing point included” shown in FIG. This is an overrun geometric pattern classified into one of the overrun geometric pattern types “overrun area intersection” shown in 15E.

  The block check logic in the overrun geometric pattern is the same as the block check logic in the geometric pattern. In other words, the course control program 1400 applies the block check logic according to the overrun geometric pattern type to the two blocks that constitute the overrun geometric pattern, so that the train existing in one overrun protection area of the block The route can be determined so that it does not collide with other trains or trains existing in other closed overrun protection areas.

  An overrun geometric pattern that requires block check logic is an overrun geometric pattern where the origin of one block is not included in the overrun protection area of the other block, or the landing point of one block is the block of the other block This is an overrun geometric pattern not included in the overrun protection area.

  The overrun geometric pattern requiring the block check logic in FIG. 17 includes the overrun geometric pattern requiring the order determination logic in FIG. Further, the overrun geometric pattern classified into the overrun geometric pattern type “starting point inclusion” shown in FIG. 15B is included.

  The control logic types applied to each overrun geometric pattern are not limited to the three control logic types shown in FIG. For this reason, the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 may include information on control logic types other than the control logic types shown in FIG.

  FIG. 18 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the control logic index table 400 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The control logic index table 400 includes the name of the control logic for executing the control logic type applied to each geometric pattern and each overrun geometric pattern, and an identifier indicating the control logic module of the control logic. The control logic index table 400 includes areas 4001 to 4003.

  An area 4001 indicates a control determination type, that is, a control logic type, and corresponds to a control determination type in the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 and the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310. That is, the area 4001 includes reservation target block selection, order determination, and block check values.

  An area 4002 shows a control logic name. The control logic name is a name for identifying a control logic used for executing each control logic type of reservation target block selection, order determination, and block check.

  A plurality of control logics may be assigned to the control logic types of reservation target block selection, order determination, and block check according to the operation of the railway operation management system performed by the user. This is because when the control logic types of reservation target block selection, sequence determination, and block check are executed, the control logic to be executed can be changed as required by the user.

  For example, the control logic in which the control determination type (area 4001) indicates “order determination” and the control logic name (area 4002) indicates “dialog time order” is determined according to the timetable diagram transmitted from the planning system 9910. 9930 is a control logic that determines the order in which 9930 enters the block.

  Further, for example, in the control logic in which the control determination type (area 4001) indicates “order determination” and the control logic name (area 4002) indicates “train position order”, the train 9930 is closed according to the position where the train 9930 is located. It is a control logic which determines the order which enters into.

  When each control logic type of reservation target block selection, order judgment, and block check is executed, the user can select a control logic name corresponding to the control logic type to be executed from a plurality of predetermined control logic names. select.

  An area 4003 shows a control logic ID. The control logic ID is an identifier for identifying each control logic name. The control logic ID is a key for uniquely identifying a control logic module read from the control logic library 256 when the control logic is executed.

  Note that the control logic for executing each control logic type is not limited to the control logic shown in FIG. 18, and any control logic may be included depending on the designation by the user.

  FIG. 19 is a flowchart illustrating an entire process performed by the course control program generation unit 100 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The course control program generation unit 100 starts the process shown in FIG. 19 using the activation of the path control program generation unit 100 as a trigger (500). The course control program generation unit 100 activates the line wiring input unit 211 in the process 500.

  After the process 500, the line wiring input unit 211 receives the line wiring information and the closing information input from the user (600). In the process 600, the track wiring input unit 211 displays, for example, a screen (for example, a screen 700 shown in FIG. 5) for the user to input track wiring information and closing information as a user interface. The line wiring input unit 211 displays a screen on the input / output device 160 using the screen management unit 230, the output interface 242 and the like.

  Details of the process 600 are shown in FIG. A process 600 is a process executed by the line wiring input unit 211.

  FIG. 20 is a flowchart illustrating a process of receiving line wiring information and blocking information according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The line wiring input unit 211 repeats the processing 611, the processing 612, the processing 613, and the processing 614 until the processing by the line wiring input unit 211 satisfies the termination condition after the processing 600 is started (610). The termination condition in the process 610 is a case where the line wiring input unit 211 receives that the operation button 705 shown in FIG. 5 is pressed and the process 614 is terminated. Therefore, the line wiring input unit 211 receives the fact that the operation button 705 shown in FIG. 5 has been pressed, and executes the process 620 when the process 614 ends.

  The track wiring input unit 211 acquires information on the station input by the user via the station selection window 710 shown in FIG. 5 (611). For example, when the user presses the area 713 shown in FIG. 5, the track wiring input unit 211 acquires the station name “Gintencho” as information about the station. For example, when the user presses the area 711 shown in FIG. 5, the station name “Mikasa” is acquired as information about the station. A station selection window 710 shown in FIG. 5 shows an example in which the area 713 is pressed.

  Note that when an area included in the station selection window 710 is pressed by the user in the process 611, the track wiring input unit 211 or the screen management unit 230 inverts the color of the pressed area, for example, via the output interface 242. Alternatively, the border line surrounding the pressed area may be displayed by a broken line. Thereby, the track wiring input unit 211 or the screen management unit 230 can make the user recognize that the station has been input.

  Further, when an area indicating a station to be input is not displayed in the station selection window 710, the user may add an area displayed in the station selection window 710 by pressing the operation button 704.

  Specifically, the track wiring input unit 211 or the screen management unit 230 holds a list indicating station names in the main storage device 120 or the large-capacity storage device 170 in advance. For this reason, when the operation button 704 is pressed, the track wiring input unit 211 or the screen management unit 230 adds an area to be displayed in the station selection window 710 by referring to a list indicating a station name held in advance. May be.

  In process 611, when the user presses the previous station button 741 or the next station button 742 after pressing an area in the station selection window 710, the track wiring input unit 211 displays the area pressed in the station selection window 710. You may acquire the information regarding the station which an adjacent area | region shows.

  When an area included in the station selection window 710 is pressed by the user in the process 611, the line wiring input unit 211 or the screen management unit 230 inputs the line wiring information and the block information of the station indicated by the pressed area. The area for displaying is displayed on the line wiring input window 830. The line wiring input window 830 shown in FIG. 5 shows an example of an area for inputting the line wiring information and the block information of the station having the station name “Gintencho”.

  After the process 611, the line wiring input unit 211 acquires the line wiring information input by the user through the line wiring input window 730 shown in FIG. 5 (612). Then, the line wiring input unit 211 stores the acquired line wiring information in the line shape table 251.

  Specifically, the line wiring input unit 211 assigns a line element ID for each line wiring input to the line wiring input window 830 when the acquired line wiring information indicates the addition of the line wiring. Then, the line wiring input unit 211 stores the assigned line element ID in the area 2511 of a new row of the line shape table 251. And the information regarding the station acquired in the process 611 is stored in the area | region 2512 of the new line of the track shape table 251. FIG. Then, the line wiring input unit 211 stores the position of each line wiring in the line wiring input window 730 in the area 2513 and the area 2514 in a new row.

  In addition, when the acquired line wiring information indicates deletion of the line wiring, the line wiring input unit 211 sets the station information acquired in the process 611, the acquired line wiring information, and the values of the region 2512 to the region 2513. Based on that, identify the row to delete. Then, the specified line is deleted.

  In the line wiring input window 730 shown in FIG. 5, the line wiring information is input by describing a thick solid line. For example, a line segment 737, a line segment 738, and a line segment 739 indicate line wiring information.

  For example, the user can input the line wiring into the line wiring input window 730 after pressing the area 721 of the drawing control window 720. In addition, for example, the user can delete the line wiring input to the line wiring input window 730 after pressing the area 722 of the drawing control window 720.

  The screen management unit 230 acquires the line wiring information input in the line wiring input window 730 according to the area pressed in the drawing control window 720 and transmits the acquired line wiring information to the line wiring input unit 211. Here, the screen management unit 230 may control the screen 700 so that the area 721 and the area 722 are not pressed simultaneously.

  After the process 612, the line wiring input unit 211 obtains information regarding the blocking input by the user via the line wiring input window 730 illustrated in FIG. 5 (613). Then, the line wiring input unit 211 stores the acquired closing information in the closing shape table 252.

  Specifically, the line wiring input unit 211 assigns a block ID for each block inputted to the line wiring input window 830 when the acquired block information indicates addition of block. The line wiring input unit 211 stores the assigned block ID in the area 2521 of a new row of the block shape table 252.

  The track wiring input unit 211 stores the position of the starting point of the block in the area 2522 and stores the position of the landing point in the area 2523 for each block indicated by the acquired block information, and is included in the block. The line element ID of the line wiring is stored in the area 2524, and a value indicating the direction of blocking is stored in the area 2525.

  Moreover, the track wiring input part 211 specifies the line to delete based on the acquired block information and the value of the area | region 2522-the area | region 2525, when the acquired block information shows deletion of a block. Then, the specified line is deleted.

  In the line wiring input window 730 shown in FIG. 5, the closing information is input by describing a line region sandwiched between two black diamonds. For example, when the block 733 is input, the position of the block 733 in the line wiring input window 730 is stored in the block information.

  The block 733 shown in FIG. 5 includes a line segment 737, a line segment 738, and a line wiring indicated by the line segment 739. Further, the black diamond 735 indicates the starting point of the block 733, and the black diamond 736 indicates the landing point. Arrow 732 indicates the direction of closure.

  For example, after the user presses down the area 723 of the drawing control window 720, the user can input a block in the line wiring input window 730. As an input method, for example, the user determines a starting point by selecting a position on the line wiring, and then determines a landing point by selecting another position on the line wiring.

  In addition, for example, the user can erase the block inputted to the line wiring input window 730 after pressing the area 724 of the drawing control window 720.

  The screen management unit 230 acquires the blocking information input in the line wiring input window 730 according to the area pressed in the drawing control window 720 and transmits the acquired blocking information to the line wiring input unit 211. Here, the screen management unit 230 may control the screen 700 so that the area 723 and the area 724 are not pressed simultaneously.

  Note that the blockage indicates the area of the line 9001 from the first inner track circuit installed in the inner section of the traffic light to the final inner track circuit. The block is input so as to match the area of the line 9001 up to the track circuit.

  After the process 614, the line wiring input unit 211 acquires adjacent station boundary information input by the user via the line wiring input window 730 shown in FIG. 5 (614). Then, the line wiring input unit 211 stores the acquired adjacent station boundary information in the area 2526 of the block shape table 252.

  Specifically, the line wiring input unit 211 identifies the position where the adjacent station boundary indicated by the acquired adjacent station boundary information and the block where the end points overlap. Then, the overlapping end point type (starting point or landing point) is stored in the area 2526 of the row of the closing shape table 252 indicating the specified closing.

  An adjacent station boundary 731 shown in FIG. 5 indicates the boundary with the adjacent station. For example, the user can input an adjacent station boundary in the track wiring input window 730 after pressing the area 721 of the drawing control window 720. The adjacent station boundary is input only to the end point of the line segment, that is, the end point of the line wiring.

  In addition, although the line wiring input window 730 shown in FIG. 5 shows the line wiring for every station, the line wiring of several stations may be shown in the one line wiring input window 730. FIG. In this case, the user can omit the input of the neighboring station boundary.

  When the user presses the operation button 703, the screen management unit 230 holds the track wiring information, the block information, and the adjacent station boundary information input to the screen 700 in the main storage device 120 or the large capacity storage device 170. It may be stored in a file. When the user presses the operation button 701, the screen management unit 230 reads the track wiring information, the block information, or the adjacent station boundary information stored in the file, and displays the read information on the screen 700. May be.

  When the user presses the operation button 702, the screen management unit 230 reads the track wiring information, the block information, or the adjacent station boundary information stored in the file, and further reads the content displayed on the screen 700. You may add the published information. At this time, when an information conflict occurs, the screen management unit 230 may display a confirmation dialog regarding each piece of information in which the conflict has occurred, for example. Then, the screen management unit 230 may cause the user to select which information is used by a confirmation dialog.

  When the process 614 is completed and the operation button 705 is pressed, the line wiring input unit 211 determines the consistency of the line wiring information, the block information, and the neighboring station boundary information acquired in the processes 611 to 614. Check (620).

  In the process 620, the line wiring input unit 211 includes, for example, any of the blocks in which all the line element IDs (regions 2511) stored in the line shape table 251 are stored in the block shape table 252 as a consistency check. It is determined by referring to the area 2524.

  Here, when it is determined that the line element ID that is not included in any of the blocks stored in the block shape table 252 is stored in the line shape table 251, the line wiring input unit 211 fails in the consistency check. It is determined that By the process 620, the line wiring input unit 211 can detect an error in the arrangement of the traffic light 9240.

  In process 620, the line wiring input unit 211 determines whether the consistency check in process 620 is successful or unsuccessful (621). When it is determined that the consistency check in the process 620 is successful, the line wiring input unit 211 ends the process 600 illustrated in FIG.

  When it is determined that the consistency check in the process 620 is unsuccessful, the line wiring input unit 211 displays an error message on the screen 700 via, for example, the screen management unit 230 and the output interface 242. After the error message is displayed, when the user inputs that the error content is to be corrected, the line wiring input unit 211 returns to the process 610.

  In addition, when the user inputs that the error is ignored after the error message is displayed, the line wiring input unit 211 ends the process 600 illustrated in FIG.

  20, the line wiring input unit 211 has acquired information on the closing and the line wiring via the screen 700. However, the line wiring input unit 211 of the present embodiment is related to the closing and the line wiring. As long as the information can be acquired, the information may be acquired by any method. For example, information may be input to the input interface 241 by a medium such as a CD-ROM.

  After the process 600, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 starts a process 2300 shown in FIG.

  FIG. 21 is a flowchart illustrating a process for defining an overrun protection area according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The overrun protection area definition unit 215 is a process of acquiring information related to the overrun protection area for all the closures that are landed on the number line included in the station in the process 2310. The overrun protection area definition unit 215 displays, as a user interface, a screen (for example, a screen 800 shown in FIG. 6) for the user to input information on the number line and the overrun protection area when the process 2310 starts. The overrun protection area definition unit 215 displays a screen on the input / output device 160 using the screen management unit 230, the output interface 242 and the like.

  The overrun protection area definition unit 215 repeats the process 2311, the process 2312, and the process 2313 until the process by the overrun protection area definition unit 215 satisfies the end condition after the process 2300 is started (2310). The end condition in the process 2310 is when the operation button 805 shown in FIG. 6 is pressed by the user.

  The overrun protection area definition unit 215 acquires information about the station, which is input by the user via the station selection window 710 shown in FIG. 6 (2311). That is, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 acquires information about the station, as in the process by the track wiring input unit 211 in the process 611.

  After the process 2311, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 acquires information regarding the number line input by the user via the line wiring input window 830 illustrated in FIG. Then, a blockade in which the position of the number line indicated by the acquired information regarding the number line overlaps the position of the landing point is specified (2312).

  The number line in the present embodiment is a position where the train 9930 stops, and is indicated by a position where the head of the train 9930 stops. A white diamond 841 shown in FIG. 6 indicates the position of the number line. The screen management unit 230 acquires the coordinates of the rhombus 841 in the line wiring input window 830 as the coordinates of the number line. Then, the acquired coordinates of the number line and the identifier of the number line are included in the information regarding the number line and transmitted to the overrun protection region definition unit 215.

  For example, the user can input a number line in the line wiring input window 830 after pressing the area 821 of the drawing control window 820. Further, for example, after the area 822 of the drawing control window 820 is pressed, the user can delete the number line input to the line wiring input window 830.

  Here, the screen management unit 230 may display the screen 800 so that the area 821 and the area 822 are not pressed simultaneously.

  Note that the screen management unit 230 in the present embodiment displays the screen 800 so that a number line is input only at the starting point or landing point of any block. That is, the position of the end point of the block and the position of the end point of the number line in the present embodiment match.

  When the train 9930 in this embodiment stops on the number line, it departs according to the instruction | indication which the signal 9942 shows, and the signal 9942 in this embodiment is installed in the position which can be recognized from the position of a number line. As described above, the traffic light 9942 in the present embodiment is installed at a position immediately before the train 9930 enters the starting point of the closing, so the position of the closing end point and the position of the end point of the number line in the present embodiment are Match.

  In step 2312, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 obtains information about the number line from the user, and then performs a process in which the coordinates of the number line in the drawing control window 820 match the landing coordinates (area 2523) of the shape table 252. Extract all. The blockade extracted here is a blockade for which an overrun protection area is to be defined at a station input by the user via the station selection window 710.

  In step 2312, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 obtains the extracted blockage ID (area 2521), the identifier of the line indicated by the acquired information, and the coordinates of the line indicated by the acquired information. These are stored in the area 2581, the area 2582, and the area 2582 of the overrun protection area table 258.

  After the process 2312, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 acquires information on the overrun protection area input from the user via the line wiring input window 830 shown in FIG. And based on the information acquired in the process 2312 and the process 2313, the line element ID of the line wiring between the overrun protection region and the position of the number line (that is, the landing point) is extracted. Then, the overrun protection area table 258 is updated based on the extracted track element ID and the information related to the overrun protection area (2313).

  Information on the overrun protection area is input to the screen 800 when the user designates a track area sandwiched between a white rhombus and a black inverted triangle shown in FIG. The line region sandwiched between the rhombus 841 and the terminal end 842 shown in FIG. 6 is an overrun protection region 843.

  For example, the user presses the area 823 of the drawing control window 820 and then inputs the overrun protection area to the line wiring input window 830. As an input method, for example, the user selects one block from the line wiring input window 830 and then selects another position on the line wiring, thereby determining the end of the overrun protection area of the selected block. There is a way to do it. As a result, the position of the landing point (that is, the position of the line) having the overrun protection area and the end position of the overrun protection area are input to 830, and the overrun protection area is defined for each block.

  When the user inputs the overrun protection area, the screen management unit 230 may display the screen 800 so that the end of the overrun protection area cannot be defined while the landing is not a line.

  Further, as another input method, there is a method in which the user inputs the overrun protection region in a lump for the same-direction blocking with the same number line as the landing point. In this method, for example, the position of the number line is selected by selecting the position of the number line (that is, the position of the landing point) from the line wiring input window 830 and then selecting another position on the line wiring. This is a method for determining the end of the overrun protection area for all the obstructions.

  Further, for example, after the area 824 of the drawing control window 820 is pressed, the user can erase the end of the overrun protection area input to the line wiring input window 830.

  Here, the screen management unit 230 may display the screen 800 so that the region 823 and the region 824 are not pressed simultaneously by the user.

  The screen management unit 230 includes the landing position and the end position of the overrun protection area input via 830 and the input interface 241 in the information related to the overrun protection area. Then, information on the overrun protection area is transmitted to the overrun protection area definition unit 215. As a result, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 acquires information on the overrun protection area.

  In the process 2313, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 specifies a row of the block shape table 252 that includes the landing position (that is, the position of the line) in the area 2523 indicated by the acquired information on the overrun protection area. Thus, the obstruction ID of the obstruction that defines the overrun protection area is specified. Then, the acquired position of the end of the overrun protection area is stored in the area 2584 of the row of the overrun protection area table 258 that includes the specified blocking ID in the area 2581.

  Further, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 refers to the acquired information about the overrun protection area in the process 2313, and the line wiring installed between the landing position and the end position of the overrun protection area Are extracted by referring to the region 2513 and the region 2514 of the track shape table 251. Then, the extracted line element ID (area 2511) of the line wiring is stored in the area 2585 of the row of the overrun protection area table 258 including the identified block ID in the area 2581.

  When the process 2313 is finished and the operation button 805 is pressed by the user, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 checks the consistency of the information about the numbered line and the information about the overrun protection area acquired from the process 2311 to the process 2313. (2320).

  In the process 2320, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 leaves a block in which the overrun protection area is not defined, for example, among the closures that are pointed at all the numbers stored in the area 2582 of the overrun protection area table 258. Check consistency by determining whether or not

  Specifically, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 performs blocking in which the overrun protection area is not defined when there is a line in which no value is stored in the area 2584 and the area 2585 of the overrun protection area table 258 in the process 2320. Judge that there is.

  Further, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 includes all the block shape tables 252 in which all the line coordinates (area 2583) of the overrun protection area table 258 coincide with the landing coordinates (area 2523) of the block shape table 252. If a row is extracted and the block ID of the extracted row is not stored in the region 2581 of the overrun protection region table 258, it may be determined that there is a block in which the overrun protection region is not defined.

  Through the process 2320, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 can detect an overrun protection area definition omission.

  After the process 2320, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 determines whether there is no blockage where the overrun protection area is not defined as a result of the consistency check in the process 2320 (2321). If it is determined in process 2320 that there is no block where the overrun protection area is not defined, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 ends the process 2300 shown in FIG.

  When it is determined in the process 2320 that there is a blockage in which the overrun protection area is not defined, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 displays the error message display window 851 of FIG. 22 on the screen management unit 230 or the like, for example. Notify user of consistency check failure.

  FIG. 22 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the error message display window 851 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  A screen 800 shown in FIG. 22 includes a station selection window 710, a drawing control window 820, and a track wiring input window 830, similar to the screen 800 shown in FIG. Further, the screen 800 shown in FIG. 22 shows an error message display window 851 in the line wiring input window 830.

  The error message display window 851 is displayed in accordance with the determination result of the process 2321 shown in FIG. 21, and is displayed when there is a block where an overrun protection area is not defined. The error message display window 851 includes an error content correction button 852 and an error content ignore button 853.

  When the user wants to define the overrun protection area in a closed state where the overrun protection area is not defined, the user presses the error content correction button 852. The overrun protection area definition unit 215 returns to the process 2310 when the error content correction button 852 is pressed.

  When the user does not define the overrun protection area in the block where the overrun protection area is not defined, the user presses the error content ignore button 853. When the error content ignore button 853 is pressed, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 ends the process 2300 shown in FIG.

  21, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 has acquired information on the overrun protection area via the screen 800. However, the overrun protection area definition unit 215 according to the present embodiment performs the overrun protection area definition. Any information may be acquired by any method as long as the information regarding the area definition unit 215 can be acquired. For example, information may be input to the input interface 241 by a medium such as a CD-ROM.

  After the process 2300, the process 900 shown in FIG. 19 is executed.

  In the process 900, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the geometric pattern type from the starting point, the landing point, and the direction of the traffic light with respect to two of the plurality of blocking groups input in the processing 600. Then, in the process 900, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines, based on the obstruction overrun protection area input in the process 2300, for any combination of obstruction and overrun protection area from the starting point and the landing point of the traffic light. Determine the overrun geometric pattern type.

  When the process 900 is started, the screen management unit 230 displays, for example, the screen illustrated in FIG. 23 on the input / output device 160 as a user interface.

  FIG. 23 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen 1000 for displaying the geometric pattern type according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The screen 1000 is a screen for displaying a geometric pattern type between two blocks.

  Screen 1000 includes tab 1031 and tab 1032. When the tab 1031 is selected, the screen management unit 230 displays the screen 1000. The tab 1031 is selected by the user when determining the geometric pattern type. When the tab 1032 is selected, the screen management unit 230 displays a screen 1100 shown in FIG.

  The screen 1000 includes a geometric pattern list window 1010, a line shape graph display window 1020, and operation buttons 1001. The geometric pattern list window 1010 shows a legend of symbols displayed on the track shape graph display window 1020.

  The line shape graph display window 1020 displays a geometric pattern between two blocks. At the start of the process 900, nothing is displayed in the line shape graph display window 1020.

  The operation button 1001 is a button for proceeding to a process 1200 for selecting a control logic for each geometric pattern.

  A detailed flow of the process 900 shown in FIG. 19 is shown in FIGS. 24A and 24B.

  FIG. 24A is a flowchart illustrating a process for determining a geometric pattern type according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 executes processing 910, processing 920 to processing 925, processing 930, processing 940, and processing 941 in order to determine the geometric pattern type of the block input in processing 600.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 repeats the process 920 until the process in the process 920 ends and the process satisfies the end condition in the process 910 (910). The end condition in the process 910 is that all the blocks stored in the block shape table 252 are selected in the process 910, and the process of the process 920 is executed on the selected block.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 selects a block not selected in the process 910 from the block shape table 252. The block selected in the process 910 is hereinafter referred to as block 1.

  In the process 920, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 repeats the processes 921 to 925 until the process 925 ends and the end condition in the process 920 is satisfied (920). The end condition in the process 920 is that the processes of the processes 921 to 925 are executed for all combinations of the blocks 1 stored in the block shape table 252 other than the block 1 and the blocks 1.

  In the process 920, when there is a pair in which the processes of the processes 921 to 925 are not executed among the combinations of each block other than the block 1 and the block 1, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 is selected as the block 1 Choose one block from no block. The block selected in the process 920 is hereinafter referred to as block 2.

  After selecting the block 2 in the process 920, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks whether or not the starting point or landing point of the closing point 1 and the starting point or landing point of the block 2 overlap (921). In the process 921, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 compares the origin coordinates (area 2522) and the origin coordinates (area 2523) of the block 1 and the block 2 of the block shape table 252, for example. It is checked whether the point or landing point and the starting point or landing point of the block 2 overlap.

  After the process 921, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks whether or not the closing point 1 or closing point 2 includes the starting point or the landing point of the other closing point (922). In the process 921, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212, for example, selects one of the blocks 1 and 2 from the corresponding line element ID (region 2524) of the block shape table 252 and the region 2513 of the line shape table 251. The starting point is determined by determining whether or not the other starting point coordinates (region 2522) and the landing point coordinates (region 2523) are included in the specified section. Or check whether the landing is included.

  After the process 922, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks the direction of the block 1 and the block 2 (923). In the process 923, for example, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 compares the direction of the block 1 and the block 2 in the block shape table 252 (region 2525), and if the direction of the block 1 and the direction of the block 2 are the same direction, When the direction is determined to be the forward direction and the direction of the block 1 is different from the direction of the block 2, the direction is checked by determining that the direction is the reverse direction.

  After the process 923, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 collates the check results in the processes 921 to 923 with the geometric pattern determination table 254 to determine the geometric pattern type (924).

  For example, in the process 924, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 collates the result of the process 921 with the number of overlapping endpoints (region 2541) and the type of overlapping endpoints (region 2542) in the geometric pattern determination table 254. Further, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 uses the result of the process 922 as the number of endpoints of the block 2 included in the block 1 of the geometric pattern determination table 254 (region 2543), and the type of end point of the block 2 included in the block 1 (region). 2544), the number of endpoints of block 1 included in block 2 (region 2545), and the type of endpoint of block 1 included in block 2 (region 2546).

  Further, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 collates the result of the process 923 with the directional relationship (area 2547) between the block 1 and the block 2 in the geometric pattern determination table 254. The geometric pattern type is determined by acquiring the geometric pattern type of the line that matches all the check results by these checks.

  Note that, as a result of the processing 921 and the processing 922, when the block 1 and the block 2 do not correspond to any of the geometric pattern types indicated by the area 2548 in FIG. 12B, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines that the block 1 and the block 1 in step 924 The geometric pattern type is not determined for the pair with block 2. Then, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 returns to the process 920 and executes the process 921 for the block 1 and the new block 2.

  After the process 924, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 generates an identifier indicating the determined geometric pattern type, a block ID indicating the block 1 (region 2521), and a block ID indicating the block 2 (region 2521). The data is stored in the area 2533, the area 2534, and the area 2535 of the new row of the storage table 253 (925). The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores “normal” in the area 2532 of the new row, and stores a unique identifier in the geometric pattern storage table 253 in the area 2531.

  For example, when the block ID of block 1 is “Block_ # 1”, the block ID of block 2 is “Block_ # 2”, and the geometric pattern type “course selection A” is determined in process 924, the geometric pattern In the process 925, the extraction unit 212 stores normal in the geometric pattern classification (region 2532) of the geometric pattern storage table 253. The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores “16” in the geometric pattern type (region 2533), “Block_ # 1” in the block 1 ID (region 2534), and “Block_ # 2” in the block 2 ID (region 2535). Is stored.

  When the process 925 ends, the end condition in the process 920 is satisfied, and the end condition of the process 910 is satisfied, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores information stored in the block shape table 252 and the geometric pattern storage table 253. Based on the above, a geometric pattern is displayed on the track shape graph display window 1020 shown in FIG. 23 by a graph recognizable by the user (930). The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 displays the geometric pattern on the line shape graph display window 1020 via the screen management unit 230 or the like.

  In FIG. 23, the block stored in each row of the block shape table 252 is displayed as, for example, block F1021.

  Further, in FIG. 23, the geometric pattern type indicated by the area 2533 of the geometric pattern storage table 253 is displayed by a line or arrow pattern connecting two blocks. For example, when the block ID of the block B is “Block_ # 1” and the block ID of the block D is “Block_ # 3”, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the geometric pattern type between the block D and the block F. Since the identifier (area 2533) is “12” in the geometric pattern storage table 253 shown in FIG. 10, the space between the block B and the block D is displayed as indicated by an arrow 1022.

  Further, for example, when the block ID of the block B is “Block_ # 1” and the block ID of the block C is “Block_ # 2”, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the geometry between the block B and the block C. Since the identifier of the pattern type (area 2533) is “16” in the geometric pattern storage table 253 shown in FIG. 10, the space between the block B and the block C is displayed as a double line 1023.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 displays a legend of symbols indicating the displayed geometric pattern types in the geometric pattern list window 1010 so that the user can identify the geometric pattern types displayed in the line shape graph display window 1020. For example, a triple line indicating the geometric pattern type “end point blockade A” (identifier: 19) is displayed in the area 1011.

  When the user presses any of the legends of the geometric pattern list window 1010, the screen management unit 230 highlights the geometric pattern of the line shape graph display window 1020 corresponding to the pressed geometric pattern type of the legend. It may be displayed.

  Here, of the geometric patterns stored in the geometric pattern storage table 253, only the geometric patterns whose geometric pattern classification (region 2532) indicates “normal” are displayed in the line shape graph display window 1020. By pressing the tab 1032, the user can switch from the screen 1000 on which the track shape graph display window 1020 is displayed to a screen (described later) that displays an overrun geometric pattern.

  After the process 930, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks the consistency of the result of the process 910 (940). In the process 940, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks the consistency by, for example, determining whether or not the geometric pattern type for the train 9930 to enter the block is defined for all the blocks. If the geometric pattern type is defined for all blocks, the consistency check in operation 940 is successful.

  Specifically, in the process 940, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores all the blocks stored in the block shape table 252 in the block 1 ID (region 2534) or block 2 ID (region 2535) of the geometric pattern storage table 253. In addition, at least one of “12”, “13”, “14”, and “15” is included in the geometric pattern type (region 2533) of the row in which “normal” is stored in the region 2532 of the geometric pattern storage table 253. If one is stored, it is determined that the geometric pattern type is defined for all the blocks. Through the processing 930, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 can verify the validity of the arrangement of the traffic lights 9942.

  After the process 940, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the check result of the process 940 (941). When the consistency check in the process 940 fails, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 notifies the user of the failure of the consistency check by displaying an error message display window and an error range on the screen 1000. Here, when an instruction to correct the error content is input by the user, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 activates the line wiring input unit 211 so that the process 600 is started again. When an instruction to ignore the error content is input by the user, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 executes processing 950.

  FIG. 24B is a flowchart illustrating a process for determining the overrun geometric pattern type according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 executes a process 950 to determine the overrun geometric pattern type between the overrun protection area input in the process 2300 and the block input in the process 600. The process 950 includes a process 960, a process 970, a process 971 to a process 975, a process 980, and a process 990.

  When the process 950 is started, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 repeats the process 970 until the end condition in the process 960 is satisfied (960). The end condition in the process 960 is that all the blocks stored in the block shape table 252 are selected in the process 960, and the process in the process 970 is executed in the selected block in the process 960.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 selects a block not selected in the process 960 from the block shape table 252. The block selected in the process 960 is hereinafter referred to as block 1.

  In the process 970, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 repeats the processes 971 to 975 until the process 975 ends and the end condition in the process 970 is satisfied. An end condition in the process 970 is that the processes of the processes 971 to 975 are executed for all the combinations of the block stored in the block shape table 252 other than the block 1 and the block 1.

  In the process 970, when there is a pair in which the processes of the processes 971 to 975 are not executed in the combinations of the respective blocks other than the block 1 and the block 1, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 starts the block from the blocks other than the block 1. select. The block selected in the process 970 is hereinafter referred to as block 2.

  In step 971, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks whether there is a common area between the overrun protection area of the block 1 and the protection area of the block 2. Specifically, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 specifies the row of the overrun protection area table 258 including the block ID of the block 1 in the area 2581 in the check in the process 971, and corresponds to the overrun protection area of the specified line. The line element ID (area 2585) is compared with the corresponding line element ID of the block 2 (area 2524). Then, as a result of the comparison, when at least one same line element is included in the overrun protection area corresponding line element ID (area 2585) of the specified row and the corresponding line element ID of the block 2 (area 2524), It is determined that there is a common area between the overrun protection area of the block 1 and the protection area of the block 2.

  After the process 971, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks whether there is a common area between the block 1 overrun protection area and the block 2 overrun protection area (972). Specifically, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 compares the overrunning protection area corresponding line element ID (area 2585) of the overrunning protection area table 258 between the block 1 and the block 2 in the check in the process 972. If at least one of the same line elements is included in the row area 2585 indicating the block 1 and the row area 2585 indicating the block 2, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 and the overrun protection region of the block 1 and the block 2 It is determined that there is a common area with the overrun protection area.

  After the process 972, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 checks whether the starting point or the landing point of the block 2 is included in the overrun protection area of the block 1 (process 973). In the check in the process 973, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 specifically identifies a row of the overrun protection area table 258 that includes the block ID of the block 1 in the area 2581. Then, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 identifies the internal point of the overrun protection area from the overrun protection area corresponding line element ID (area 2585) of the identified row, and the origin 2 coordinates (area 2522) or the origin of the block 2 It is determined whether or not the point coordinates (region 2523) are included in the specified internal point.

  After the process 973, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the overrun geometric pattern type by comparing the check results in the processes 971 to 973 with the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 (974). Specifically, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 collates the results of the processes 971 and 972 with the presence / absence of a common area in the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 (area 2591).

  Further, in the process 974, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 collates the result of the process 973 with the region 2592 and the region 2593 of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259. As a result of the collation, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 determines the overrun geometric pattern type by acquiring the geometric pattern type of the row of the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259 that matches the check results in the processes 971 to 973. .

  Note that, as a result of processing 971 to processing 973, when the block 1 and block 2 do not correspond to any of the overrun geometric pattern types indicated by the region 2594 in FIG. 13, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 performs block closure in step 974. The overrun geometric pattern type is not determined for the set of 1 and block 2. Then, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 returns to the process 970 and executes the process 971 for the block 1 and the new block 2.

  After the process 974, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores an identifier indicating the determined overrun geometric pattern type in the area 2533 of the geometric pattern storage table 253, stores the block ID of block 1 in the area 2534, and blocks the block. The block ID of 2 is stored in the area 2535 (975). Further, in process 975, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores an identifier that can be uniquely identified in the geometric pattern storage table 253 in the region 2531 and stores “overrun region” in the region 2532.

  For example, the block ID of block 1 is “Block_ # 1”, the block ID of block 2 is “Block_ # 4”, and the overrun geometric pattern type determined by the process 974 is “no landing point included” (identifier). 1), in the process 975, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores “overrun region” in the geometric pattern classification (region 2532) of the geometric pattern storage table 253 and the geometric pattern type (region 2533). “1” is stored, “Block_ # 1” is stored in the area 2534, and “Block_ # 2” is stored in the area 2535.

  When the process 975 ends and the end condition in the process 970 and the end condition in the process 960 are satisfied, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 stores information on the overrun protection area stored in the block shape table 252 and the geometric pattern storage table 253. Is displayed on the line shape graph display window 1120 shown in FIG. 25 using the screen management unit 230 and the output interface 242 (980).

  FIG. 25 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen 1100 for displaying the overrun geometric pattern type according to the embodiment of this invention.

  Screen 1100 shows an overrun geometric pattern between one obstruction overrun protection area and another obstruction protection area, or an overrun geometric pattern of one obstruction overrun protection area and another obstruction overrun protection area. It shows.

  A screen 1100 is a screen displayed when the tab 1032 is selected. The screen 1100 includes a geometric pattern list window 1110, a line shape graph display window 1120, and operation buttons 1001. The geometric pattern list window 1110 shows a legend of symbols displayed on the track shape graph display window 1120.

  The track shape graph display window 1120 displays an overrun geometric pattern between two blocks. When the tab 1032 is selected at the start of the process 900, nothing is displayed in the track shape graph display window 1120.

  The operation button 1001 is a button for proceeding to a process 1200 for selecting a control logic for each overrun geometric pattern, like the operation button 1001 shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 25, the overrun geometric pattern type indicated by the area 2533 of the geometric pattern storage table 253 is displayed as a line pattern connecting two blocks. For example, the geometric pattern type between the block J and the block H is displayed by a line 1121, and the line 1121 indicates the geometric pattern type “no landing point included”.

  The geometric pattern extraction unit 212 displays the geometric pattern type so that the user can identify the geometric pattern type by, for example, the area 1111 of the geometric pattern list window 1110. When the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 displays patterns of the overrun geometric pattern types “no landing point included”, “including the starting point”, “including the landing point”, and “including the landing point”, for example, a region By displaying the black circle 1122 on the block 1 indicated by 2534, the user can identify whether the block 1 is the block 1 indicated by the region 2534 or the block 2 indicated by the region 2535 in the overrun geometric pattern determination table 259. To display.

  A black circle 1122 illustrated in FIG. 25 indicates that the block H is the block 1 in the geometric pattern storage table 253 in the overrun geometric pattern type “no landing point included” between the block J and the block H.

  Note that when the user presses any of the legends in the geometric pattern list window 1110, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212, the screen management unit 230, or the like displays a line shape graph display window 1120 corresponding to the geometric pattern type of the pressed legend. The overrun geometric pattern may be highlighted.

  Here, of the geometric patterns stored in the geometric pattern storage table 253, only the overrun geometric pattern whose geometric pattern classification (region 2532) is “overrun region” is displayed in the line shape graph display window 1120.

  After the process 980, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 waits until the user presses the operation button 1001 shown in FIG. When the user presses the operation button 1001, the geometric pattern extraction unit 212 ends the process 950 illustrated in FIG. 24B. After the process 950 ends, the process 900 shown in FIGS. 24A and 24B ends, and the process 1200 starts.

  After the process 900, in the process 1200 shown in FIG. 19, the control logic selection unit 213 determines the geometric pattern between the two blocks and the overrun geometric pattern (hereinafter referred to as the geometric pattern type (region 2533) stored in the process 900). , Simply select the control logic in the geometric pattern).

  FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing a process for selecting a control logic for the geometric pattern according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  The process shown in FIG. 26 corresponds to the process 1200 shown in FIG. In the process 1200, the control logic selection unit 213 executes a process 1210, a process 1211 to a process 1214, and a process 1220.

  When starting the processing illustrated in FIG. 26, the control logic selection unit 213 provides the user with the screen 1300 illustrated in FIG. 27 as a user interface using the screen management unit 230, the output interface 242, and the like.

  FIG. 27 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen 1300 for selecting a control logic as a geometric pattern according to the embodiment of this invention.

  A screen 1300 illustrated in FIG. 27 is a screen displayed when the operation button 1001 of the screen 1000 illustrated in FIG. 23 is pressed by the user. A screen 1300 shown in FIG. 27 includes a geometric pattern list window 1010 and a line shape graph display window 1020, similarly to the screen 1000 shown in FIG.

  However, a control logic input window 1310 is displayed on the screen 1300 in accordance with a user operation on the screen 1000 shown in FIG. 23 or the screen 1100 shown in FIG. The screen 1300 includes an operation button 1301.

  The control logic input window 1310 is a screen for the user to select control logic for the geometric pattern selected in the track shape graph display window 1020 or the overrun geometric pattern selected in the track shape graph display window 1120. .

  The operation button 1301 is a button that the user presses when it is desired to confirm the operation of the generated course control program 1400.

  In the process 1210, the control logic selection unit 213 repeats the processes 1211 to 1214 until the end condition in the process 1210 is satisfied. The termination condition in the process 1210 is when the process 1214 is terminated and the operation button 1301 is pressed by the user.

  In the process 1211, the control logic selection unit 213 selects a control logic to be selected (control logic selection target) as a geometric pattern selected by the user or an overrun geometric pattern (that is, between two pairs of blocks). Pattern) is acquired from the line shape graph display window 1020 or the line shape graph display window 1120.

  The user selects an arbitrary geometric pattern or overrun geometric pattern in the track shape graph display window 1020 or the track shape graph display window 1120 shown in FIG. Can be entered.

  Here, the control logic selection unit 213 or the screen management unit 230 allows the control logic selection target geometric pattern or overrun geometric pattern to be easily identified by the user so that the user can easily identify the geometric pattern or overrun geometric pattern. The geometric pattern may be highlighted.

  A control logic input window 1310 shown in FIG. 27 is a control logic input window 1310 when a geometric pattern between the block J and the block K is selected by the user as a target of control logic selection.

  By the processing 1211, the control logic selection unit 213 can acquire the geometric pattern or the overrun geometric pattern from which the control logic is to be acquired.

  After the processing 1211, the control logic selection unit 213 displays a control logic input window 1310 corresponding to the acquired geometric pattern or overrun geometric pattern on the screen 1300 (1212). Here, the control logic selection unit 213 controls the items displayed in the control logic input window 1310 as the geometric pattern type (region 2533) of the geometric pattern selected as the control logic selection target, the geometric pattern-control logic table 300, and the control. Determined based on the logic index table 400, or the geometric pattern type (region 2533) of the overrun geometric pattern selected as the control logic selection target, the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310, and the control logic index table 400. To do.

  Specifically, when the geometric pattern is selected by the user in the process 1212, the control logic selection unit 213 includes the geometric pattern type (region 2533) of the geometric pattern selected by the user in the region 3000. A row of the control logic table 300 is specified. In addition, when the overrun geometric pattern is selected by the user, the control logic selection unit 213 includes the overrun geometric pattern type (region 2533) of the overrun geometric pattern selected by the user in the region 3100. -Identify the rows of the control logic table 310.

  In step 1212, the control logic selection unit 213 extracts a control logic type in which “◯” (that is, a value indicating that application is necessary) is stored in the control determination type of the identified row. Then, it is determined that the value indicating the extracted control logic type is displayed as an item in the control logic input window 1310.

  In addition, the control logic selection unit 213 extracts a row of the control logic index table 400 that includes a value indicating the extracted control logic type in the region 4001, and controls the control logic name (region) of the extracted row of the control logic index table 400 4002) is displayed in the control logic input window 1310.

  The control logic input window 1310 shown in FIG. 27 is an example displayed when the geometric pattern selected by the user as the control logic selection target is the geometric pattern type “end point blockade A” (identifier: 19).

  The geometric pattern type “end-point blockade A” (identifier: 19) corresponds to a row in which “◯” is stored in the area 3003 and the area 3004 in the geometric pattern-control logic table 300. Therefore, in the control logic input window 1310 shown in FIG. 27, a value indicating the control logic type for order determination and a value indicating the control logic type for block check are displayed.

  Further, in the process 1212, the control logic selection unit 213 displays the control logic name extracted from the control logic index table 400 so as to correspond to the displayed control logic type value. When displaying a plurality of control logic names for one control logic type, the control logic selection unit 213 may display the control logic names using a pull-down menu.

  After the process 1212, the control logic selection unit 213 acquires the control logic name selected by the user from the control logic input window 1310 (1213). The user can select a control logic name from the pull-down menu 1311 of the control logic input window 1310, for example. In the processing 1213, the control logic selection unit 213 may acquire the control logic name selected via the pull-down menu and the corresponding control logic.

  Note that the control logic selection unit 213 prevents the user from selecting an unauthorized control logic name in the process 1213, among the control logic stored in the control logic index table 400, the geometric pattern-control logic table 300. The control logic type pull-down menu in which “×” (that is, a value indicating that application is not necessary) is stored may not be displayed in the control determination type.

  In addition, the control logic selection unit 213 interferes with the control logic already selected for another geometric pattern in the process 1213 with the control logic selected for the geometric pattern that is the target of the control logic selection. Detect whether there is a possibility of unauthorized operation. When interference is detected and the control logic may be illegally operated, the control logic selection unit 213 may not display the control logic name of the control logic that causes the illegal operation in the pull-down menu 1311. .

  Further, the control logic selection unit 213 may pop up an error display window on the screen 1300 when the interference between the control logics selected for each geometric pattern is detected in the processing 1213 or the processing 1220.

  Here, an example in the case where interference is detected and the control logic may be illegally operated is shown below. For example, when it is necessary to apply a control logic for order determination to the geometric pattern T1 between the block A and the block B and the geometric pattern T2 between the block A and the block C, the geometric pattern T1 “Order of diamond time” in the control logic index table 400 is selected as the control logic name for order determination, but “train position order” in the control logic index table 400 is used as the control logic name for order determination in the geometric pattern T2. Is a case where there is a possibility of illegal operation.

  The process by the diamond time order logic and the train time order logic of the control logic index table 400 will be described in the process in the route control program 1400 described later.

  The control logic input window 1310 includes an import button 1312, an attribute setting button 1313, a confirmation button 1314, and a cancel button 1315. The user can import control logic that is not registered in the control logic index table 400 from an external file by pressing the import button 1312.

  The file imported by the user is, for example, a source code file describing the processing contents of the control logic or an executable module file obtained by compiling the source code file. The user can set the parameter of the selected control logic by pressing the attribute setting button 1313.

  The control logic selection unit 213 or the screen management unit 230 allows the user to easily select that the control logic has been selected by, for example, adding an icon display to the geometric pattern display in which the control logic is selected. May be identified. Further, the control logic selection unit 213 or the screen management unit 230 may allow the user to enlarge and reduce the screen by adding an enlargement button and a reduction button to the line shape graph display window 1020.

  By the processing 1213, the control logic selection unit 213 can acquire the control logic applied to each geometric pattern and each overrun geometric pattern.

  After the process 1213, the control logic selection unit 213 stores the control logic information indicating the control logic selected or imported in the process 1213 in the selected control logic table 255 (1214). The control logic selection unit 213 starts processing 1214 when the confirmation button 1314 of the control logic input window 1310 is pressed.

  Specifically, in the process 1214, the control logic selection unit 213 uses the information input via the pull-down menu 1311 of the control logic input window 1310, the geometric pattern or overrun geometric pattern that is the target of the control logic selection, the control A value indicating a logic type and a control logic name is acquired. Then, the control logic ID (region 4003) of the row of the control logic index table 400 including the acquired control logic name in the region 4002 is specified. In addition, a geometric pattern ID indicating a geometric pattern or an overrun geometric pattern that is a target of control logic selection is specified from the region 2531.

  Then, the control logic selection unit 213 stores the identified geometric pattern ID in the area 2551 in a new row of the selected control logic table 255. Then, the specified control logic ID is stored in the area indicating the control logic type displayed in the pull-down menu among the areas 2552 to 2554 in the new row of the selected control logic table 255.

  When the control logic is imported, the control logic selection unit 213 may store an identifier uniquely indicating the control logic in the region 2552 to the region 2555 of the selected control logic table 255.

  When the cancel button 1315 is pressed after the process 1213, the control logic selection unit 213 executes the process 1211 without performing the process 1214.

  When the process 1214 ends and the end condition in the process 1210 is satisfied, the control logic selection unit 213 executes the process 1220. In process 1220, the control logic selection unit 213 activates the program module combination unit 214 to start the process 1490. Then, after the process 1220, the process shown in FIG.

  Through the processing shown in FIG. 26, the control logic selection unit 213 can acquire control logic to be applied to the geometric pattern or the overrun geometric pattern.

  In the processing of processing 1490, the processing executed for the geometric pattern and the overrunning geometric pattern is the same processing. This is because a unique identifier is assigned to each of the geometric pattern and the overrun geometric pattern in the geometric pattern storage table 253. For this reason, in the following, unless there is a difference in processing, the geometric pattern and the overrun geometric pattern are simply referred to as a geometric pattern.

  In the above-described processing, the overrun geometric pattern type is distinguished from the geometric pattern type. However, in the subsequent processes, the overrun geometric pattern type and the geometric pattern type are simply referred to as the geometric pattern type unless the processes for the overrun geometric pattern type and the geometric pattern type are particularly different.

  After process 1200 ends, process 1490 is executed. In the process 1490, the program module combination unit 214 holds in advance the block shape table 252 generated in the process 600, the geometric pattern storage table generated in the process 900, and the selected control logic table 255 generated in the process 1200. A route control program 1400 that is a program for realizing the route control device 9900 is generated from the control logic library 256 and the operation management core module library 257 held in advance, and an operation confirmation screen is displayed.

  FIG. 28 is a block diagram illustrating a logical configuration of the course control program 1400 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The course control program 1400 shown in FIG. 28 is a program generated by the program module combination unit 214 in the process 1490. The course control program 1400 is installed in the course control apparatus 9900. For this reason, the course control program 1400 shown in FIG. 28 is expanded in the main storage device 120 shown in FIG. 3 and executed by the processor 110. In addition, the program module coupling unit 214 may store the generated program in the large-capacity storage device 170 after generating the program shown in FIG. 28 in the main storage device 120.

  The course control program 1400 includes functional units of a block reservation management unit 1410, a planning system information management unit 1451, a ground facility group information management unit 1452, a communication management unit 1460, an input interface 1471, and an output interface 1472.

  The block reservation management unit 1410 receives the train diagram 1487 and the facility state 1488 from the planning system information management unit 1451 and the ground facility group information management unit 1452, respectively, and reserves the block based on the received information. The block reservation management unit 1410 is a functional unit that calculates a control state of the traffic light 9942 after the block reservation process, and outputs a request to control the traffic light 9942 (traffic signal control request) to the ground facility group information management unit 1452. is there.

  When the reservation is reserved by the reservation management unit 1410, the route control device 9900 causes the ground device 9920 to signal the reserved reservation as a protection zone based on the traffic signal control request output from the reservation management unit 1410. A request to change the indication of 9942 to an indication of progress is sent.

  The planning system information management unit 1451 receives, for example, planning information such as a train diagram from the planning system 9910 and holds it as a train diagram 1487. And it is a function part which provides the train schedule 1487 to the block reservation management part 1410 according to the request | requirement of the block reservation management part 1410.

  FIG. 29 is a flowchart showing processing for generating the course control program 1400 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The process shown in FIG. 29 corresponds to the process 1490 shown in FIG. The process 1490 is started with the end of the process 1200 as a trigger, and the program module combining unit 214 executes the processes 1491 to 1495 in the process 1490.

  In processing 1491, the program module combination unit 214 generates a geometric information table 1482 from the geometric pattern storage table 253 (see FIG. 10) and the selected control logic table 255 (see FIG. 11).

  Specifically, the program module combination unit 214 identifies each row having the same geometric pattern ID in the geometric pattern storage table 253 and the selected control logic table 255 in processing 1491. Then, the geometric information table 1482 is generated by connecting the two specified rows.

  After the processing 1491, the program module combination unit 214 generates a closing information table 1483 based on the geometric pattern storage table 253 (see FIG. 10) and the closing shape table 252 (see FIG. 8) (1492).

  Specifically, the program module combination unit 214 identifies a row of the geometric pattern storage table 253 that includes the block ID (region 2521) of the block shape table 252 in the region 2534 or the region 2535 in the process 1492. Then, the geometric pattern ID (area 2531) of the identified row is associated with the closure ID of the closure shape table 252 and stored in the closure information table 1483.

  In the process 1492, the program module combination unit 214 stores, in the block information table 1483, information related to the station to which each block belongs or related equipment installed in each block. The information regarding the station or related equipment in the block information table 1483 is key information for associating the state of the ground facility group 9940 acquired from the facility state 1488 held by the ground facility group information management unit 1452 with each block.

  The program module coupling unit 214 identifies the line element included in each block by referring to the areas 2521 and 2524 of the block shape table 252 and the line shape table 251. And the program module coupling | bond part 214 extracts the station name (area | region 2512) to which the identified track element belongs as a value which shows the station to which each block belongs. Then, the value indicating the station to which each extracted block belongs is stored in area 14833 of the block information table 1483.

  Moreover, the program module coupling | bond part 214 may produce | generate the information regarding the related installation installed in each closure by what kind of method. For example, the program module coupling unit 214 may generate information related to the related equipment stored in the block information table 1483 by reading out information related to the related equipment installed in each line element, which is held in advance as data.

  Further, the program module coupling unit 214 inputs, for example, information indicating the ground facility group 9940 installed in each block in any of the process 600, the process 2300, the process 900, and the process 1200 illustrated in FIG. You may let them.

  That is, when the user selects one of the blocks in the track shape graph display window 1020 shown in FIG. 23, the program module combination unit 214 displays the facility input screen on the screen 1000, thereby associating the ground facilities to be associated with each block. Information indicating the group 9940 may be input to the user. Then, according to the information indicating the input ground facility group 9940, the closure information table 1483 may store information related to related facilities installed in each closure.

  After the processing 1492, the program module combination unit 214 extracts the control logic indicated by the selected control logic table 255 (see FIG. 11) from the control logic library 256, and a control logic module group 1486 based on the extracted control logic. Is generated (1493).

  In order to generate the control logic module group 1486, the program module combination unit 214 holds each control logic module stored in the control logic library 256 as an object file in processing 1493. Then, the program module combination unit 214 extracts the object file corresponding to the control logic ID stored in the selected control logic table 255 from the held object file. Then, the extracted object file is stored in the control logic module group 1486.

After the process 1493 , the program module coupling unit 214 generates the course control program 1400 based on the operation management core module library 257, the geometric information table 1482, the block information table 1483, and the control logic module group 1486 (process 1494). ).

  That is, in the process 1494, the program module combining unit 214 performs the geometric information table 1482 generated in the process 1491, the blocking information table 1483 generated in the process 1492, the control logic module group 1486 generated in the process 1493, The course control program 1400 is generated by combining the modules stored in the operation management core module library 257 in advance.

  The modules stored in the operation management core module library 257 include a block reservation management unit 1410, a planning system information management unit 1451, a ground facility group information management unit 1452, a communication management unit 1460, an input interface 1471, and an output interface 1472. It is.

Then, the program module combination unit 214 generates the route control program 1400 by adding the generated tables to the route control program 1400.

  The tables generated by the program module combining unit 214 in the processing 1494 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 30 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 is a table that temporarily stores data used for processing in processing for reserving a block. The reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 includes an area 14811 and an area 14812. Further, the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 includes rows 14813 to 14815.

  An area 14811 indicates the data type. A value indicating “reservation request closure” is stored in the row 14814 of the area 14811, a value indicating “reservation target closure” is stored in the line 14814 of the area 14811, and a “previous time” is stored in the line 14815 of the area 14811. A value indicating “reservation target block” is stored.

  Region 14812 includes a closure ID indicating the closure. Further, the closure ID stored in the area 14812 corresponds to the closure ID stored in the closure shape table 252 or the like.

  In the area 14812, according to the value of the area 14811, the closing ID of the reservation request source (reservation request closing), the closing ID of the reservation target closing (reservation target closing), and the reservation target closing in the previous processing ( The closing ID of the previous reservation target closing) is stored.

  The value stored in the area 14812 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 is updated by the closing reservation management unit 1410 when the course control program 1400 is executed. Therefore, in process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 stores a null value, a hyphen, or the like in the area 14812.

  FIG. 31 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the geometric information table 1482 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The geometric information table 1482 shows control logic applied to each closed geometric pattern. The geometric information table 1482 includes regions 14821 to 14829. The geometric information table 1482 is generated in the process 1491 of FIG.

  A region 14821 to a region 14825 correspond to the region 2531 to the region 2535 of the geometric pattern storage table 253. Areas 14826 to 14829 correspond to areas 2551 to 2555 of the selected control logic table 255.

  FIG. 32 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the blocking information table 1483 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The blockage information table 1483 stores a geometric pattern of each block and information on a station and related facilities related to each block. The blocking information table 1483 includes an area 14831 to an area 14834. The blocking information table 1483 is generated in the processing 1492 of FIG.

  An area 14831 indicates the block ID. The region 14831 includes a value corresponding to the block ID stored in the block shape table 252 and the like.

  An area 14832 shows the geometric pattern ID. The area 14832 includes a value corresponding to the geometric pattern ID stored in the area 2531 of the geometric pattern storage table 253. The area 14832 stores geometric pattern IDs of all geometric patterns (including overrun geometric patterns) defined between the block specified by the block ID and other blocks.

  An area 14833 indicates a station to which the block specified by the block ID belongs. Region 14833 includes a value corresponding to the value stored in region 2512 of track shape table 251.

  Region 14834 shows the associated equipment located at each block. The area 14434 stores information on the ground equipment group 9940 arranged in the block specified by the block ID, and the information stored in the area 14834 indicates the equipment state related to the ground equipment group 9940 arranged in the block. All the equipment required for the control program 1400 to determine is shown.

  Here, the equipment necessary for determining the equipment state includes, for example, the track circuit 9941 installed in the track area included in the block. In addition, the equipment necessary for determining the equipment state includes a traffic light with a block as a protection section, a switch 9943 and a railroad crossing installed in a track area included in the block, and a traffic light 9942 with a block as a protection section. The track closing lever which is a lever for giving the indication instruction is included.

  If a certain block is reserved (when a reservation state (region 14842) of a block state table 1484 described later is updated to “reserved”), the course control program 1400 stores the region 14831 and the region of the block information table 1483. With reference to 14834, a progress indication control request is output to traffic light 9942, which is a related facility arranged in a reserved space.

  FIG. 33 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the blocking state table 1484 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The block state table 1484 indicates information related to reservations for each block and whether or not the ground facility group 9940 arranged in each block can be controlled. The blocking state table 1484 includes a region 14841 to a region 14846.

  An area 14841 indicates the block ID. In process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 stores the value stored in the area 2521 of the block shape table 252 in the area 14841.

  Region 14842 indicates whether each block is reserved by train 9930. In the present embodiment, “reserved” is stored in the area 14842 of the row indicating the block reserved by the train 9930. Further, “unreserved” is stored in a region 14842 of a row indicating a block not reserved by the train 9930.

  A region 14843 shows a reserved train, that is, a reservation-source train 9930 that reserves each block. The area 14484 stores the identifier (train ID) of the train 9930 that reserves the block indicated by the area 14842 in the row in which the area 14842 is “reserved”. In this embodiment, a null value or a hyphen is stored in the area 14843 of the row in which the area 14842 is “unreserved”.

  The area 14842 and the area 14843 are updated by the block reservation management unit 1410 when the course control program 1400 is executed. Therefore, in process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 stores a null value or a hyphen in the area 14842 and the area 14843.

  Region 14844 shows trains in line, that is, trains 9930 in each block. In a region 14844 of a row indicating the block where the train 9930 is present, the train ID of the train 9930 being present is stored.

  A region 14845 indicates the train position. That is, the region 14845 indicates the position of the train 9930 that is on the line in the block when the train 9930 is on the block.

  The area 14844 and the area 14845 are updated by the ground facility group information management unit 1452 based on information collected from the ground facility group 9940 when the course control program 1400 is executed. The ground facility group information management unit 1452 updates the region 14844 and the region 14845, for example, every 2 seconds at a time interval specified by the administrator or the like.

  An area 14846 indicates the equipment state in the enclosure. That is, the area 14846 stores whether all the facilities arranged in each block can be controlled. For example, one of two values “controllable” and “not controllable” is stored in the area 14846.

  When the route control program 1400 is executed, the ground equipment group information management unit 1452 collects values indicating the state of the ground equipment group 9940 stored in the related equipment (area 14834) of the closure information table 1483, and It is determined whether the related equipment to be arranged satisfies a controllable condition. And when the related equipment arrange | positioned at each closure satisfy | fills all the conditions which can be controlled, it determines with the installation arrange | positioned at each closure being controllable. In this case, the character string “controllable” is stored in the area 14846.

  The ground equipment group information management unit 1452 collects a value indicating the state of the ground equipment group 9940 at a time interval designated by the administrator or the like, for example, every 2 seconds.

  As described above, since the area 14844 to the area 14844 are updated by the ground facility group information management unit 1452, the program module combination unit 214 stores a null value, a hyphen, or the like in the area 14844 to the area 14844 in the process 1494.

  FIG. 34 is an explanatory diagram showing a train diagram 1487 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The train diagram 1487 indicates the block through which the train 9930 passes (via block) and the time through the block. Train diagram 1487 includes regions 14871 to 14873.

  A region 14871 indicates a train ID. The train ID stored in the area 14871 corresponds to the values stored in the area 14852 of the block entry train table 1485 and the areas 14843 and 14844 of the block state table 1484, and is, for example, a train number.

  An area 14872 indicates the block ID of the route block. In other words, the area 14872 stores the closure ID of the schedule that each train 9930 is scheduled to pass according to the train operation plan generated in the planning system 9910.

  An area 14873 indicates a transit time. The area 14873 stores the time when the train 9930 passes through the block. The value indicated by the area 14873 shown in FIG. 34 is the time to enter the closing, and the time to advance from the closing. However, the train diagram 1487 of this embodiment may hold the entry time of each train to the closing time and the advance time from the closing time.

  The values stored in the area 14871 to the area 14873 are updated by the planning system information management unit 1451 when the course control program 1400 is executed. Therefore, the program module combination unit 214 stores a null value, a hyphen, or the like in the area 148771 to the area 14873 in processing 1494.

  When the course control program 1400 is started, the planning system information management unit 1451 acquires a train operation plan from the planning system 9910 via the input interface 1471, the communication management unit 1460, and the like. And the plan system information management part 1451 updates the area | region 14871-the area | region 14873 according to the acquired train operation plan.

  The planning system information management unit 1451 updates the area 14871 to the area 14873 at, for example, every 2 seconds at a time interval designated by the administrator or the like.

  Here, when the train operation plan acquired from the plan system 9910 is not information of a block unit stored in the area 14872, that is, the planning system information management unit 1451 includes the acquired train operation plan. When the time when each train 9930 passes through the block is not included, the train operation plan may be converted into a block unit plan using a conversion rule table stored in advance in the planning system information management unit 1451.

  The case where the train operation plan is not the information of the closing unit is, for example, the case where the train operation plan includes the arrival and departure times of the train 9930 for each station line, or the train operation plan indicates the arrival and departure times of the train 9930 for each track element. This is the case.

  When the train operation plan includes the arrival and departure times of the train 9930 for each station line, the conversion rule table includes values indicating the region 2581 and the region 2583 of the overrun protection region table 258. When the train operation plan includes the arrival and departure times of the train 9930 for each track element, the above-described conversion rule table includes values indicating the region 2521 and the region 2524 of the block shape table 252.

  FIG. 35 is an explanatory diagram showing the block approach train table 1485 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The closed approach train table 1485 is a table showing the train 9930 that has entered each block and the train 9930 that is scheduled to enter. Closed approach train table 1485 includes areas 14851 to 14853.

  An area 14851 indicates the block ID. In process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 stores the value stored in the area 2521 of the block shape table 252 in the area 14851.

  A region 14852 indicates a train scheduled to enter. The area 14852 stores the train ID of the train 9930 scheduled to enter the block indicated by the block ID according to the train operation plan generated in the planning system 9910. The train IDs stored in the area 14852 are arranged and stored in order of time of entry.

  When the route control program 1400 is started, the block reservation management unit 1410 arranges, for example, the train IDs (region 14871) of the train schedule 1487 for each route block (region 14873), and further, the transit time corresponding to the train ID. By aligning train IDs according to (area 14873), train IDs are stored in area 14852 of the closed approach train table 1485.

  An area 14853 indicates whether or not the train 9930 has already entered each block. In the area 14853 of this embodiment, “entered” or “not yet entered” is stored.

  In the closed approach train table 1485, the row in which the area 14853 indicates “entered” indicates that the train 9930 has already entered the block. Further, in the closed approach train table 1485, the row in which the area 14853 indicates “not yet entered” indicates that the train 9930 has not yet been closed.

  The area 14853 is updated by the ground facility group information management unit 1452 when the course control program 1400 is executed. The ground facility group information management unit 1452 updates the area 14853 based on the information collected from the ground facility group 9940.

  The ground facility group information management unit 1452 updates the area 14853 at, for example, every 2 seconds at a time interval designated by the administrator or the like.

  Therefore, the program module combination unit 214 stores a null value or a hyphen in the area 14852 and the area 14853 in the process 1494.

  FIG. 36 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the blocking overrun information table 1489 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The blockade overrun information table 1489 holds information on the traffic lights 9942 or the opening levers installed in the overrun protection area of each block. The blocking overrun information table 1489 includes an area 14891 to an area 14893.

  An area 14891 shows the block ID. In process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 stores the value stored in the area 2521 of the block shape table 252 in the area 14891.

  An area 14892 indicates whether or not the traffic light 9942 can be alerted. That is, the area 14892 stores a value indicating whether or not the traffic light 9942 whose protection area is the block indicated by the block ID can be alerted.

  Here, the warning display is a signal display instructing that the traffic light 9942 must enter the train 9930 at a low speed inward of the traffic light 9942. For example, the traffic light 9942 instructs the train 9930 to enter at a speed of 25 km / h or less in the warning display.

  In addition, when the warning display is instructed, that is, when the area 14892 indicates “warning display is possible”, the train 9930 is low speed, so the ground equipment group 9940 does not protect the overrunning train 9930. Also good. That is, when the area 14892 indicates “alert indication is possible”, the route control program 1400 may not control the ground facility group 9940 so as to protect the train 9930 in the overrun protection area.

  A region 14893 indicates a state where the lever is opened. That is, in the area 14893, this state is stored corresponding to the block indicated by the block ID. Here, opening is a facility for manually switching the overrun protection function ON and OFF. The opening lever is operated by the railway commander.

  When the route control program 1400 is executed, the ground facility group information management unit 1452 collects information indicating whether the traffic light 9942 can be alerted and the state of the traffic signal from the ground facility group 9940. Based on the collected information, values are stored in region 14892 and region 14893.

  After the process 1494, the program module combination unit 214 executes the route control program 1400 generated in the process 1494 and presents the execution result to the user (1495). In process 1495, the course control program 1400 displays, for example, a screen 1900 shown in FIG. 37 as a user interface.

  Specifically, in the process 1495, the program module coupling unit 214 refers to the simulation train diagram 1487, the block approaching train table 1485, and the like, and identifies the block at which the train 9930 exists at each time. Then, the program module combination unit 214 executes processing of a course control program 1400 shown in FIG. 38 to be described later, using each time and a block state table 14844 including the block specified at each time in the region 14844. . Then, the program module combination unit 214 displays the execution result on a screen 1900 shown in FIG.

  Note that the process of the route control program 1400 in the process 1495 is performed for checking the generated route control program 1400, and therefore may not be executed in accordance with a user instruction.

  FIG. 37 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a screen 1900 that displays an execution result of the course control program 1400 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The screen 1900 includes a program execution control window 2110, an information display window 2120, a line shape graph display window 2130, operation buttons 2102, and operation buttons 2101.

  When the route control program 1400 is started in the process 1495, each functional unit included in the route control program 1400 determines which train 9930 is at which time and which train is at which time. Ask for what to do. For this reason, the course control program 1400 can display the train 9930 and the state of blockage at a temporarily assumed time on the track shape graph display window 2130.

  The program execution control window 2110 is an area for the user to specify which time the train 9930 and the state of the block are displayed on the track shape graph display window 2130. The program execution control window 2110 includes an area 2111 and an area 2112.

  An area 2111 is an area for the user to input time.

  An area 2112 changes the state displayed in the line shape graph display window 2130 to a state assumed in the future from the displayed state or to a state assumed in the past rather than the displayed state. In this case, the area is used by the user. Specifically, the area 2112 includes operation buttons such as fast forward, rewind, pause, and pause release.

  The information display window 2120 is an area for displaying information related to the block, the train 9930, or the geometric pattern specified by the user in the track shape graph display window 2130.

  The track shape graph display window 2130 is an area showing each block and the train 9930 passing through each block at the time designated in the program execution control window 2110. For this reason, the user can display on the track shape graph display window 2130 the state of each train 9930 and the like at a specified time.

  The course control program 1400 is initialized when the operation button 2102 is pressed. That is, when the operation button 2102 is pressed, the course control program 1400 is executed again.

  The line shape graph display window 2130 displays information obtained by adding the contents of the block state table 1484 to the information during the block displayed in the line shape graph display window 1020. The course control program 1400 displays the reserved block so that it can be identified by the user by displaying it with a double-line ellipse, for example, as block B 2132 shown in FIG. Good.

  Further, the course control program 1400 may display the unreserved block so that the user can identify it by displaying it with a dotted ellipse, for example, a block L2133 shown in FIG.

  Further, the route control program 1400 may display a block for which reservation has been attempted by one of the trains 9930 but failed so that the user can be identified by displaying the block by a solid oval, for example, block D2134. Good. Here, the route control program 1400 displays the train 9930 for which reservation was attempted, for example, as a reservation trial train icon 2135, and displays a geometric pattern associated with the control logic causing the failure as a reservation failure cause control. By displaying with the logic icon 2136, it may be displayed so that the user can identify.

  A reservation trial train icon 2135 shown in FIG. 37 indicates that the train T attempted to reserve the block D2134 but failed. In addition, the reservation failure cause control logic icon 2136 shown in FIG. 37 is that the reason for the reservation failure is that the execution result of the block check logic applied to the geometric pattern between the block D and the block E is a failure. Indicates.

  The information displayed in the information display window 2120 is mainly information stored in the closed state table 1484, the closed information table 1483, the closed approach train table 1485, and the geometric information table 1482.

  For example, since the block E2137 is selected in the track shape graph display window 2130 shown in FIG. 37, the name, line train (area 14844), train line position (area 14845) of the block E2137 is displayed in the information display window 2120 shown in FIG. ) And related facility information (area 14834) held by the closure. The displayed name of the block may be either a block ID (region 14841 or the like), a name corresponding to the block ID, or any value.

  The user can grasp the result obtained by the course control program 1400 by confirming the track shape graph display window 2130. Further, the user can confirm whether or not the result obtained by the course control program 1400 at each time is successful by designating the time via the program execution control window 2110. When the course control program 1400 does not obtain a result as intended by the user, the user can investigate the cause by checking the information display window 2120.

  Then, when the user determines from the result of the screen 1900 that the course control program 1400 needs to be corrected, the course control program generation unit 100 may start the process illustrated in FIG. 19 again.

  After the process 1495 ends, the program module combination unit 214 ends the process 1490 shown in FIG. And after the process 1490 shown in FIG. 29 is complete | finished, the process shown in FIG. 19 is complete | finished.

  Note that the screen 1900 shown in FIG. 37 described above is displayed when the route control program 1400 is executed to check the generated route control program 1400, but the route control program for route control of the train 9930 is displayed. The screen 1900 may also be output by the route control program 1400 when 1400 is executed in the route control device 9900.

  When the route control program generation unit 100 is stored in a device different from the route control device 9900, the route control program generation unit 100 transmits the generated route control program 1400 to the route control device 9900.

  FIG. 38 shows the flow of processing when the route control program 1400 generated in the processing 1494 is executed in the route control device 9900, focusing on processing by the blocking reservation management unit 1410.

  FIG. 38 is a flowchart showing processing by the closing reservation management unit 1410 according to the embodiment of this invention.

  The process shown in FIG. 38 is performed when the course control program 1400 is executed in the process 1495 shown in FIG. 29 and when the course control program 1400 installed in the course control apparatus 9900 is subsequently executed in the course control apparatus 9900. This corresponds to the processing flow.

  The course control program 1400 provides the screen 1900 shown in FIG. 37 as a user interface, for example. When the operation button 2102 shown in FIG. 37 is pressed, the course control program 1400 starts the process shown in FIG. In addition, the course control program 1400 may repeat the process 1500 for each specified period, for example, a 2-second period, or when a change in state is transmitted from the ground equipment group 9940 or the planning system 9910. May be executed.

  A process 1500 illustrated in FIG. 38 includes a process 1510, a process 1511, a process 1520 to a process 1526, and a process 1530 to a process 1533.

  After the process 1500 is started by the route control program 1400, the reservation management unit 1410 clears the previous process result (1510). The previous process result in the process 1510 is the reservation state (area 14841) and the reservation train (area 14842) in the block state table 1484.

  After the process 1510, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies the block used as the starting point of the block reservation process (1511). Specifically, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies all the blocks in which the train 9930 is stored in the on-line train (area 14844) of the block state table 1484 as the block starting point for the block reservation process.

  After the process 1511, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 determines the reserved reservation, and reserves the determined reservation (1520). The block reservation management unit 1410 repeats the process 1520 for all the blocks identified in the process 1511.

  The block reservation management unit 1410 selects one block from which the process 1520 to the process 1526 have not been executed among the blocks specified in the process 1511. Hereinafter, the block selected in the process 1520 is described as a reservation request block.

  The reservation management unit 1410 selects the reservation request block in the process 1520, and then sets the reservation request block ID (area 14841) in the area 14812 of the reservation request block (line 14813) of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 ( 1521). This is to indicate that the reservation request block selected in the process 1511 is the reservation source block.

  In addition, in step 1521, the reservation management unit 1410 sets the reservation ID of the reservation request block (region 14841) in the region 14812 of the row 14815 as the initial value of the reservation target block.

  After the process 1521, the reservation management unit 1410 extracts the block ID set in the reservation target block (line 14815) of the reservation process intermediate data table 1481. Then, the line of the block information table 1483 including the extracted block ID in the area 14831 is specified, and all geometric pattern IDs are acquired from the area 14832 of the specified line (1522).

  After the process 1522, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes each geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1522 in the area 14821. Then, the identifier (area 14826) of the reservation target block selection logic is extracted from all the specified rows, and the reservation target block selection logic corresponding to the extracted identifier is executed. Then, the reservation management unit 1410 sets the execution result as a reservation target block in the area 14812 of the row 14814 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 (1523).

  In step 1523, the reservation management unit 1410 acquires the reservation target block selection logic from the control logic module group 1486 based on the identifier of the reservation target block logic extracted from the geometric information table 1482, and acquires the acquired logic. Execute. Details of the reservation block selection logic will be described later.

  After the processing 1523, the reservation management unit 1410 extracts a row of the closing information table 1483 that includes the closing ID of the reservation target closing stored in the row 14814 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 in the area 14831. Then, the reservation management unit 1410 acquires all the geometric pattern IDs (area 14832) stored in the extracted row (1524).

  After the process 1524, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes the geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1524 in the area 14821. Then, the identifier of the order determination logic (area 14827) is extracted from all the specified lines, and the order determination logic corresponding to the extracted identifier is executed (1525).

  In step 1525, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 acquires the order determination logic from the control logic module group 1486 based on the identifier of the order determination logic extracted from the geometric information table 1482. Details of the order determination logic will be described later.

  After the process 1525, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes the geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1524 in the area 14821. Then, the block check logic (region 14828 and region 14829) is extracted from all the specified lines, and the extracted block check logic is executed (1526).

  In step 1526, the block reservation management unit 1410 acquires block check logic from the control logic module group 1486 based on the block check logic identifier extracted from the geometric information table 1482. Here, details of the block check logic will be described later.

  After the process 1526, the reservation management unit 1410 determines whether the execution results in the process 1525 and the process 1526 are all successful (1530). If all are successful, the block reservation management unit 1410 proceeds to processing 1531.

  If at least one of the process 1525 and the process 1526 fails, the block reservation management unit 1410 returns to the iterative process of the process 1520. That is, in the process 1520, one block is selected from the plurality of blocks identified in the process 1511, and the process of the processes 1521 to 1526 is continued by setting the selected block as the reservation request block.

  In processing 1531, the block reservation management unit 1410 extracts the row of the block state table 1484 including the block ID of the reservation target block stored in the row 14814 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 in the area 14841, and the extracted row A value indicating “reserved” is set in the reservation state (region 14842).

  After the processing 1531, the reservation management unit 1410 stores the reservation ID of the reservation target stored in the row 14814 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 and the row 14813 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 from the closing state table 1484. The reservation ID of the reservation request to be closed is extracted. Then, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 identifies the row of the block state table 1484 that includes the extracted reservation request block ID in the area 14841. Then, the reservation management unit 1410 extracts the train ID of the train on the line (area 14844) from the identified row.

  Furthermore, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies the row of the block state table 1484 that includes the block ID of the extracted block to be reserved in the region 14841, and extracts the existing line to the reserved train (region 14843) of the identified row. The train ID of the train is set (1532).

  After the processing 1532, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 stores the reservation ID of the reservation target block stored in the row 14814 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 in the area 14812 of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 in the row 14815. Set as closed (1533).

  After the process 1533, the reservation management unit 1410 returns to the process 1522.

  The reservation target block selection logic executed in the process 1523 shown in FIG. 38 is a control logic for determining the block to be reserved. In process 1523, the reservation target block selected by the reservation target block selection logic is the execution result of the reservation target block selection logic.

  The control logic of the reservation target block selection logic includes, for example, a priority route selection logic and a diamond route selection logic shown in an area 4002 in FIG.

  The priority course selection logic is generally applied to the geometric pattern type “course selection A” (identifier: 16), “course selection B (identifier: 17)”, or “path selection C (identifier: 18)”. When the priority route selection logic is applied, a priority order is assigned in advance by the user or the like to each of the two blocks having the relationship between the geometric pattern types.

  Then, when the priority route selection logic is executed and the train 9930 selects one of the two blocks assigned with the priority order as the reservation target block, in step 1523, the priority route selection logic selects the block with the higher priority level. Select as a reservation target block.

  Further, in the process 1523, the priority route selection logic selects a block with a low priority as a reservation target block when a block with a high priority cannot be selected because the train 9930 is already on a line with a high priority. To do.

  Further, when the diamond course selection logic is executed in the process 1523, the diamond course selection logic defines the course of the train 9930 in advance based on, for example, the train schedule 1487 before selecting the reservation target block. Then, in the process 1523, when the train 9930 selects one of the two blocks as the reservation target block, for example, the block that is defined as the route in advance by the train diagram 1487 is used as the route of the train 9930. select.

  FIG. 39 shows the flow of the process 1600 executed by the diamond course selection logic when the diamond course selection logic is executed in the process 1523.

  FIG. 39 is a flowchart illustrating a process 1600 by the diamond course selection logic according to the embodiment of this invention.

  A process 1600 is an example of a process of the reservation target block selection logic. The block reservation management unit 1410 of the route control program 1400 executes processing 1610, processing 1620, processing 1630 to processing 1632, processing 1640, processing 1641, and processing 1650.

  The block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes the geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1522 in the area 14821. Then, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 includes the region 14823 in the specified row, in which the geometric pattern type “forward connection” (identifier: 12), “reverse connection A” (identifier: 13), “reverse connection”. B ”(identifier: 14) and“ reverse connection C ”(identifier: 15), and the block 1 ID of the area 14824 matches the block reserved in the reservation process intermediate data table 1481 (line 14815). The number of rows, that is, the number of geometric patterns is counted (1610).

  After the processing 1610, the reservation management unit 1410 determines whether or not the number of geometric patterns counted in the processing 1610 is equal to “1” (1620). When the number of geometric patterns counted in process 1610 is 1, the block reservation management unit 1410 executes process 1650, and when the number of geometric patterns is 2 or more, the block reservation management unit 1410 executes process 1630. If the number of geometric patterns is 0, there is no route on which the train 9930 can travel, and the closing reservation management unit 1410 ends the process 1600.

  The process 1650 is a process executed when the number of geometric patterns counted in the process 1610 is equal to 1. Here, the number of geometric patterns counted in the processing 1610 is equal to 1, which means that the train 9930 existing in the previous reservation target block (row 14815) has only one block that can enter next. means.

  In process 1650, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 uses the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 among the block 1 ID (area 14824) and the block 2 ID (area 14825) stored in the geometric information table 1482 for the geometric patterns counted in process 1610. The one that does not match the previous reservation target block (line 14815) is set as the reservation target block (line 14814) of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481. Upon completion of process 1650, process 1600 ends.

  The process 1630 is a process executed when the number of geometric patterns counted in the process 1610 is 2 or more. Here, the number of geometric patterns counted in the process 1610 is 2 or more means that there are a plurality of trains that can be entered next by the train 9930 that is currently on the reservation target block, and the train 9930 has one of them. It means that you have to choose one block and proceed.

  In process 1630, the block reservation management unit 1410 selects one of all the geometric patterns counted in process 1610, and repeats process 1631, process 1632, and process 1640 for the selected geometric pattern. Note that the geometric pattern selected in the process 1630 will be referred to as a geometric pattern 1 below.

  In process 1631, the reservation management unit 1410 extracts a block that can be entered next by the train 9930 that is in the previous reservation target block. In processing 1631, the block reservation management unit 1410 refers to block 1 ID (region 14824) and block 2 ID (region 14825) in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1. Then, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 selects a block ID that does not match the previous reservation target block (line 14815) of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481 from among the block 1 ID and the block 2 ID that have been referenced.

  After the process 1631, the block reservation management unit 1410 determines whether or not the block ID selected in the process 1631 matches the route in the train diagram 1487 of the train 9930 (1632). Specifically, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies the train 9930 indicated by the line train (region 14844) in the row of the block state table 1484 that includes the block ID of the reservation request block (row 14813) in the region 14841 in the process 1632. To do. Then, it is determined whether or not the block ID selected in the process 1631 is included in the area 14872 of the train schedule 1487 including the train ID of the identified train 9930 in the area 14871.

  After the process 1632, the reservation management unit 1410 branches the process according to the determination result of the process 1632 (1640). If the determination result of process 1632 is “included”, the reservation management unit 1410 executes process 1641. If the determination result of the process 1632 is “not included”, the reservation management unit 1410 returns to the process 1630 in order to perform the process 1631 and the process 1632 on another geometric pattern.

  In step 1641, the reservation management unit 1410 sets the block selected in 1632 to the reservation target block (line 14814) of the reservation processing intermediate data table 1481. After process 1641 ends, process 1600 ends.

  The order determination logic executed in the process 1525 shown in FIG. 38 is a process for determining whether or not the reservation result of the block satisfies the operation order of the train 9930. Examples of the order determination logic include a diamond time order logic and a train position order logic.

  Here, the operation order of the train 9930 is not necessarily the same as the train operation plan given by the planning system 9910. However, it must be ensured that at least the deadlock does not occur due to the reservation of the closure.

  Deadlock is a situation that occurs, for example, when an up train and a down train enter a single track section at the same time. When the above-described deadlock occurs, there is a possibility that the up train and the down train collide.

  The order determination logic is generally executed for a geometric pattern type in which “◯” is stored in the area 3003 of the geometric pattern-control logic table 300 shown in FIG. Also, the overrun geometric pattern type in which “◯” is stored in the area 3103 of the overrun geometric pattern-control logic table 310 shown in FIG. 17 is executed.

  Specifically, the order determination logic includes geometric pattern types of “intersection A” (identifier: 1), “intersection B” (identifier: 2), “end point blockade A” (identifier: 5), “end point piece”. Blockade B ”(identifier: 6),“ End point both block C ”(identifier: 9),“ End point both block A ”(identifier: 19), or“ End point both block B ”(identifier: 20) When classified, or the overrun geometric pattern type is “no landing point included” (identifier: 1), “landing point included” (identifier: 3), or “overrun area intersection” (identifier: 5) It is executed when it is classified into any of the following.

  Then, when there are a plurality of geometric patterns belonging to these geometric pattern types in the geometric pattern defined in the reservation target block, the order determination logic is executed for all the geometric pattern types corresponding to the order determination logic described above. The

  An example of processing in the case where the schedule reservation management unit 1410 uses the diamond time order logic as the order determination logic for the block 1 or the block 2 having the relationship between the geometric pattern type or the overrun geometric pattern type described below. Shown in When the order in which the train T enters the block 1 or the block 2 is defined in advance by the train diagram 1487, the block reservation management unit 1410 is used when the train T enters the block 1 or block 2 by the time sequence logic. If the order of the train T in the train diagram 1487 is not first, the reservation of the block 1 or the block 2 by the train T is not permitted.

  FIG. 40 shows a processing flow of the diamond time order logic performed by the block reservation management unit 1410 in the processing 1525.

  FIG. 40 is a flowchart illustrating a process 1700 by the diamond time order logic according to the embodiment of this invention.

  A process 1700 is an example of a process of order determination logic. In the route control program 1400, the reservation management unit 1410 executes processing 1710, processing 1720 to processing 1724, and processing 1730 to processing 1732.

  The block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes the geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1524 in the area 14821. Then, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 includes the regions 14822 and 14823 in the identified rows, the geometric pattern types “intersection A” (identifier: 1), “intersection B” (identifier: 2), and “end point blockade”. A ”(identifier: 5),“ end point blockade B ”(identifier: 6),“ endpoint blockade C ”(identifier: 9),“ endpoint blockade A ”(identifier: 19), or“ endpoint blockade ” B ”(identifier: 20), or overrun geometric pattern type“ no landing point included ”(identifier: 1),“ landing point included ”(identifier: 3), or“ overrun area intersection ”(identifier: 5) ) Are all extracted (1710).

  The block reservation management unit 1410 repeats the processes 1721 to 1724 for all the geometric patterns extracted in the process 1710 (1720). In process 1720, the block reservation management unit 1410 selects one geometric pattern as the geometric pattern 1 from all the geometric patterns extracted in process 1710.

  In processing 1721 to processing 1724, the closing reservation management unit 1410 identifies the closing IDs of the two closings included in the geometric pattern 1. Then, with reference to the approach order of the scheduled entry train (region 14852) in the row of the block approach train table 1485 including the identified blockage ID, the train (region 14844) existing in the reservation request block (row 14413) was referenced. It is determined whether it is the first entry order.

  In order to execute this determination, the process 1700 by the diamond time order logic is divided into processes under the following two conditions.

  Condition 1 is as follows. That is, of the two blocks included in the geometric pattern 1, the train that is scheduled to enter the next block to be reserved (row 14814) is a train (region 14844) that is on the reservation request block (row 14413). This is the case when the train diagram 1487 indicates that this is the case.

  Condition 2 is as follows. That is, of the two blocks included in the geometric pattern 1, the entry time of the train that is scheduled to enter the next block that is not the reservation target block (line 14814) is on the reservation request block (line 14813). It is earlier than the approach time for the reservation target block (line 14814) of the train (area 14844).

  Of the two conditions described above, condition 1 is a condition that must be satisfied unless the train diagram 1487 is inconsistent. For this reason, the process 1700 shown in FIG. 40 does not include the determination for branching to the process in the condition 1 and the condition 2, but the process 1700 uses the condition 1 and the condition 2 in order to verify the validity of the train diagram 1700. A process of determining may be included.

  Furthermore, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” in step 1720, the block reservation management unit 1410 can indicate the block 1 (area 14824) (area 14892). ) Is determined using the obstruction overrun information table 1489. Further, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” and the area 14823 indicates “overrun area intersection” (identifier: 5), the block 1 (area 14824). Whether or not the block 2 (area 14825) includes a traffic light 9942 capable of displaying a warning (area 14892) is determined using the block overrun information table 1489.

  If the block 1 or block 2 of the geometric pattern 1 is provided with a signal capable of displaying a warning according to the determination regarding the traffic light 9942 in the above-described step 1720, the block of the geometric pattern 1 does not require the overrun protection function by the course control program 1400. In order to hold the equipment to be performed, the reservation management unit 1410 may exclude the geometric pattern 1 from the targets of the processing 1721 to the processing 1724.

  Further, the block reservation management unit 1410 includes a block 1 (region 14824) opened when the region 14822 of the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates "overrun" in step 1720, and It is determined with reference to the area 14893 of the block overrun information table 1489 whether or not the opening lever of the block 1 is “inverted”. Further, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” and the area 14823 indicates “overrun area intersection” (identifier: 5), the block 1 (area 14824). It is determined with reference to the area 14893 of the block overrun information table 1489 whether or not the block 2 (area 14825) has an opening lever and the opening lever of the block 1 is "inverted".

  If it is determined that the closing lever 1 or the closing block 2 of the geometric pattern 1 includes the opening opening and the opening opening provided in the closing position 1 is “inverted” by the determination regarding the opening opening in the above-described step 1720, the closing of the geometric pattern 1 is The facility for switching ON and OFF of the overrun protection function is held, and the overrun protection function by the course control program 1400 is unnecessary. For this reason, the block reservation management unit 1410 may exclude the geometric pattern 1 from the targets of the processing 1721 to the processing 1724.

  In step 1721, the reservation management unit 1410 extracts the block 1 (region 14824) and the block 2 (region 14825) in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1, and makes a reservation out of the two extracted blocks. The block that does not match the reservation target block (line 14814) in the processing intermediate data table 1481 is selected. The selected block is referred to as block X in the following.

  After the process 1721, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies the row of the block entry train table 1485 that includes the block X block ID in the area 14851. Then, the area 14853 of the identified line extracts the scheduled entry train (area 14852) of the line indicating “not entered”, and the train having the earliest entry order to the block X is extracted from the extracted entry scheduled trains. Selection is made using the train diagram 1487 (1722).

  After the processing 1722, the block reservation management unit 1410 refers to the train schedule 1487, the transit time (region 14873) in the row in which the region 14873 indicates the train selected in the processing 1722 and the region 14873 indicates the block X. Is acquired (1723).

  After the process 1723, the block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a train existing in the reservation request block (line 14413) from the area 14844 of the block state table 1484, and the reservation target block (line 14814) from the train diagram 1487 for the identified train. ) To obtain the transit time (area 14873) corresponding to (1724).

  After the process 1724, the reservation management unit 1410 determines whether the transit time acquired in the process 1724 is earlier than the time acquired in the process 1723 (1730).

  When the time acquired in the process 1724 is earlier than the time acquired in the process 1723, the block reservation management unit 1410 executes processes 1721 to 1724 for another geometric pattern. If it is determined in process 1730 that the time acquired in process 1724 is earlier than the time acquired in process 1723 for all the geometric patterns identified in process 1710, the reservation management unit 1410 executes process 1731. And output success as the execution result.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in process 1730 that the time acquired in process 1724 is earlier than the time acquired in process 1723, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 executes process 1732 and outputs failure as the execution result.

  Here, when the time acquired in the process 1724 is the same as the time acquired in the process 1723, for example, the block reservation management unit 1410 outputs an error message to the input / output device 160 such as a display. Then, the reservation management unit 1410 causes the user to determine the result of the process illustrated in FIG. 40 by a method such as allowing the user to manually input success or failure.

  Further, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 predefines priorities for the two blocks included in the geometric pattern. If the reservation target block has a higher priority than the other block, it outputs success and the reservation target block If the priority is lower than the other block, a failure may be output.

  The block check logic executed in the process 1526 shown in FIG. 38 is a process for ensuring that a train collision and derailment do not occur when a block reservation is made. The closing check logic includes, for example, a train standing line check logic and a train position check logic.

  The block check logic is such that the geometric pattern defined in the reservation block (line 14814) has the geometric pattern types “intersection A” (identifier: 1), “intersection B” (identifier: 2), “starting point blockade A” ( Identifier: 3), “Start point blockade B” (identifier: 4), “End point blockade A” (identifier: 5), “Endpoint blockade B” (identifier: 6), “End point blockade C” (identifier: 9), “Reverse connection A” (identifier: 13), “Course selection A” (identifier: 16), “End blockade A” (identifier: 19), or “End blockade B” (identifier: 20) ), Or overrun geometric pattern type “no landing point included” (identifier: 1), “start point included” (identifier: 2), “landing point included” (identifier: 3), or “overrun area intersection” (Identifier: 5) This is executed when classified into any one of a plurality of geometric pattern types. If classified as, clogging Shosa logic processing 1526 is performed for each of a plurality of geometric pattern type.

  When the train T reserves one of the block 1 and the block 2 having either the geometric pattern type or the overrun geometric pattern type in which the block check logic described above is executed, If another train is already present at a non-reserved block, reservation of block 1 or block 2 by train T is not permitted.

  The train position verification logic defines a reference position P in the block in advance with respect to the block 1 and the block 2 having either the geometric pattern type or the overrun geometric pattern type in which the block check logic is executed. Keep it. When the train T reserves the block 1 or the block 2, if another train U is already present in the non-reserved block and the train U is located before the reference position P, the train T Do not allow reservations for block 1 or block 2 by.

  FIG. 41 shows a flow of processing of the train line checking logic performed by the block reservation management unit 1410 in processing 1526.

  FIG. 41 is a flowchart showing a process 1800 by the train standing line checking logic according to the embodiment of the present invention.

  A process 1800 is an example of a process of block checking logic. The block reservation management unit 1410 of the route control program 1400 executes processing 1810, processing 1820 to processing 1822, and processing 1830 to processing 1832.

  The block reservation management unit 1410 identifies a row of the geometric information table 1482 that includes the geometric pattern ID acquired in the process 1524 in the area 14821. Then, the reservation reservation management unit 1410 includes the region 14822 and the region 14823 in the identified rows, the geometric pattern types “intersection A” (identifier: 1), “intersection B” (identifier: 2), and “start point blockade”. A "(identifier: 3)," start point blockade B "(identifier: 4)," endpoint blockade A "(identifier: 5)," endpoint blockade B "(identifier: 6)," endpoint blockade C " (Identifier: 9), “reverse connection A” (identifier: 13), “course selection A” (identifier: 16), “end-end blockade A” (identifier: 19), or “end-end blockade B” ( Identifier: 20), or overrun geometric pattern type "no landing point included" (identifier: 1), "start point included" (identifier: 2), "landing point included" (identifier: 3), or "overrun All the lines indicating any of “intersection intersection” (identifier: 5) are extracted (181) ).

  After the process 1810, the block reservation management unit 1410 repeats the process 1821, the process 1822, and the process 1830 for all the geometric patterns extracted in the process 1810 (1820). In process 1820, the block reservation management unit 1410 selects one geometric pattern as the geometric pattern 1 from all the geometric patterns extracted in process 1810.

  Here, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” in step 1820, the block reservation management unit 1410 can indicate warning 1 (area 14824) (area). 14892) is determined using the overrun information table 1489 for determining whether or not a traffic light 9942 is provided. Further, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” and the area 14823 indicates “overrun area intersection” (identifier: 5), the block 1 (area 14824). Whether or not the block 2 (area 14825) includes a traffic light 9942 capable of displaying a warning (area 14892) is determined using the block overrun information table 1489.

  According to the determination regarding the traffic light 9942 in the above-described step 1820, when the geometric pattern 1 block 1 or block 2 includes a traffic signal capable of indicating warning, the geometric pattern 1 block does not require the overrun protection function by the course control program 1400. In order to hold the equipment to be performed, the block reservation management unit 1410 may exclude the geometric pattern 1 from the targets of the processing 1821, the processing 1822, and the processing 1830.

  In addition, in step 1820, if the area 14822 of the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun”, the block reservation management unit 1410 includes the block 1 (area 14824) opened, and It is determined with reference to the area 14893 of the block overrun information table 1489 whether or not the opening lever of the block 1 is “inverted”. Further, if the area 14822 in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1 indicates “overrun” and the area 14823 indicates “overrun area intersection” (identifier: 5), the block 1 (area 14824). It is determined with reference to the area 14893 of the block overrun information table 1489 whether or not the block 2 (area 14825) has an opening lever and the opening lever of the block 1 is "inverted".

  If the closing 1 or closing 2 of the geometric pattern 1 includes the opening opening and the opening opening included in the closing position 1 is “inverted” by the determination regarding the opening opening in the step 1820 described above, the closing of the geometric pattern 1 is The facility for switching ON and OFF of the overrun protection function is held, and the overrun protection function by the course control program 1400 is unnecessary. For this reason, the closing reservation management unit 1410 may exclude the geometric pattern 1 from the targets of the processing 1821, the processing 1822, and the processing 1830.

  In the process 1821, the block reservation management unit 1410 extracts the block 1 (region 14824) and the block 2 (region 14825) in the row of the geometric information table 1482 indicating the geometric pattern 1, and makes a reservation among the extracted two blocks. The block that does not match the reservation target block (line 14814) in the processing intermediate data table 1481 is selected. The selected block is referred to as block X in the following.

  After the process 1821, the closing reservation management unit 1410 refers to the area 14841 and the area 14844 of the closing state table 1484 and confirms whether or not the train is already on the closing X (1822).

  The block reservation management unit 1410 after the process 1822 determines whether or not the result of the confirmation in the process 1822 is “the train is already on the block X” (1830).

  When the result of the confirmation in the process 1822 is not “a train is already on the block X”, the process 1821 to the process 1830 are executed for another geometric pattern. When it is determined that all the geometric patterns extracted in the process 1810 are not “the train is already in the block X”, the block reservation management unit 1410 executes the process 1831. The block reservation management unit 1410 outputs success as an execution result in processing 1831.

  On the other hand, if the result of the confirmation in the process 1822 is “a train is already on the block X”, the block reservation management unit 1410 executes the process 1832. In process 1832, failure is output as the execution result.

  The course control program 1400 is executed as described above, and the result is displayed to the user.
