| Abstract | The deployment of the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS) in Europe will be mandatory on the major corridors, but this process will be long and expensive. Industry needs faster roll-out and a reduction in cost in order to obtain the certification and authorization to put equipment into service. New lab-testing tools for European Train Control System (ETCS) validation based on automatic testing could accelerate the process. In this work, we propose a co-simulation platform relaying on two existing tools: the ERTMS simulator that implements only the functional sub-system (ETCS) of ERTMS; and the OPNET simulator that allows modeling the whole telecommunication subsystem (GSM-R) from the Physical layer to higher layers, including the Euroradio interface. We describe a co-simulation protocol that determines how the results obtained from each simulator are reused as input in the other in order to take into account the impact of the functioning of one subsystem on the other. In this way, the problems related to radio propagation impairments, network load and electromagnetic interferences can be taken into account in ERTMS evaluation. Furthermore, some actors of the railway industry think about moving towards emerging technologies like LTE (4G Long Term Evolution). This platform will also allow evaluation of prospective technologies in the framework of ERTMS scenarios before costly real-world implementation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
