201407 – Banerjee – Monologue of a Byte by Byte Traveller

The history of “Byte by Byte” Railway signalling is also the history of new technology for Railway Signalling. Any discussion on this subject will remain incomplete unless we know how to manage new technology bite by bite.

The introduction of new technology in Railway Signalling systems, more often than not, is a challenging exercise. This assumes significant importance because compared to the investment and its physical visibility its impact is very high.

This paper discusses how the challenges can be managed in a structured manner.
