Information power supporting the rail systems safety

Original language description

Railway systems are complex systems interconnected with other concurrent or superordinate systems by physical, information, territorial and logical linkages, i.e. they are so-called system of systems. Introduced linkages are the causes of system of systems vulnerabilities, which directly limit the rate of safety of such system. The railway systems are also complex cyber-physical systems, because they use an information system (cyber space) that manages the physical system and they are also influenced by the physical system. The cyber (information) domain is very important because it ensures the semiautomatic and automatic control of system technology during the normal, abnormal and even critical conditions. Therefore, it is very important the care on the information power. The information power is defined as the rate of information effectiveness of systems. The information effectiveness is the key aspect for coping with risks connected with the interconnections in management of complex system, and it is main assumption for protection or ensuring the cyber security of such systems at build up their safety. The present work is focused on the information power, its definition and issues, how to manage and improve the system property. It also provides two examples of selected railway accidents, on which the information power issues are demonstrated. By multicriterial approach application the main criteria for information power size are proposed.
