: This paper presents a process for the stepwise refinement of safety code assertions from identified system hazards. The code assertions are intended for use in system safety veri...
A method is described for the analysis and the verification of safety in software systems. The method offers a formal notation for describing the software structure, the means for ...
By-wire systems have been established for several years in the area of aircraft construction and there are now approaches to utilize this technology in vehicles. The required elect...

Abstract. We present a method to specify software for a special kind of safetycritical embedded systems, where sensors deliver low-level values that must be abstracted and pre-proc...
Abstract. In this paper concepts for fault-tolerant communication systems in large-scale manipulators for heavy weights are introduced. This class of robots makes high demands on s...
