Safety is increasingly important for software based, critical systems. Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a safety technique from engineering, developed for analyzing and assessing syste...
The main focus of this paper is the problem of ensuring timeliness in safety critical systems. First, we introduce a method and its associated technique to model both real-time ta...
With the rapid progress in science and technology, we find ubiquitous use of safety-critical systems in avionics, consumer electronics, and medical instruments. In such systems, u...
Ensuring the correctness of computer systems used in lifecritical applications is very difficult. The most commonly used verification methods, simulation and testing, are not exha...
: Software for safety-critical systems has to deal with the hazards identified by safety analysis in order to make the system safe, risk-free and fail-safe. Software safety is a co...
