In the telecommunications sector product development must minimise time to market while delivering high levels of dependability, availability, maintainability and scalability. High...
When the safety community designs their systems to also maintain security properties, it is likely that public-key encryption will be among the tools that are applied. The security...
Abstract. We present several problem frames that serve to structure, characterize and analyze software development problems in the area of software and system security. These probl...
This paper describes the results of a research study sponsored by the UK nuclear industry into methods of justifying smart sensors. Smart sensors are increasingly being used in the...

Event trees are a popular technique for modelling accidents in system safety analyses. Bayesian networks are a probabilistic modelling technique representing influences between unc...
Abstract. This paper addresses the problems appearing in componentbased development of safety-critical systems. We aim at efficient reasoning about safety at system level while add...
As programmable logic controllers(PLCs) have been used in safety-critical applications, testing of PLC applications has become important. The previous PLC-based software testing te...
