Abstract -
Rational Unified Process is considered
as an object oriented methodology. This methodology
is a software development and production approach
which is repetitious axial architecture and based on
practicality. The RUP provide a process framework
with the capability of customization in software
engineering; frameworks for defining vast spectrum
of different size, complexities and considerations
projects. This concern provides the potential to
produce software based on reduced risk and
encounter main problems which leads to a reduction
in cost and increase in potential success, hence an
advantage. At this stage there does not exist any
methodology to expand safe software from developing
Safety-Critical systems based on objective
orientation, axial architecture capable of gradual
expansion and repetitious. Attempt is made in this
article to apply RUP with respect to the safety rules
printed in IEC 61508, in order to define and
customize the necessities of Safety-Critical systems in
Railway interlocking methodology is applied in
controlling train movement in stations. This proposed
RUP methodology a companied with the require
Safety- Critical in developing the Railway
interlocking system as a case study is assessed and
the practical conditions are presented.
