Safety-Critical Systems Symposium, York, UK, 6-8 February 2018
The world is becoming ever more complex and interconnected with autonomous, adaptive and distributed systems-of-systems all around us. Safety and security are now completely entwined in critical systems. Software and configuration data now determine the behaviours of systems. Safety delivery has also changed too with a move to service-oriented approaches, encompassing multiple levels of subcontracting and outsourcing. Yet safety has to be maintained and improved through this changing landscape.
