"China's government initially blamed flawed signaling and human error. It recently postponed public release of its crash report.

":Key signaling systems were assembled by Beijing-based Holysys Automation Technologies Ltd, one of the few companies China;s Ministry of Railways tapped to handle such work. In some cases of signal systems it suppied, technology branded as proprietary to Holysys contained circuitry tailor-made by Hitachi Ltd of Japan to Holysys specificaions, according to people familiar with the situation.

"The problem, these people say, is that Hitachi--fearful that Chinese technicians might revere-engineer and steal the technology--sold components with the inner workings concealed from Holysys. Hitachi executives say this 'black box' design makes gear harder to copy, and also harder to understand, for instance during testing.

"'It's still generally a mystery how a company like Holysys could integrate our equipment into a broader safety-signaling system without intimate knowledge of our know-how,' a senior executive said.
