Development of a Simulator for the VAL (Autonomous Light Vehicle) for the company operating the Metro in Lille (France). The VAL is the first fully Autonomous metro, operated without driver, opened in1981 in Lille, France. The SW, running on PC provides a real simulation of trains - stations and Traffic centre, using the same automation and control processes as in the actual system. The simulator is used for training traffic center managers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Véhicule_Automatique_Léger
