: The overall safety integrity of a safety critical system, comprising both software and hardware, is typically specified quantitatively, e.g., in terms of failure rates. However, ...
Abstract. This paper introduces a new method for safety analysis called HiPHOPS (Hierarchically Performed Hazard Origin and Propagation Studies). HiP-HOPS originates from a number ...
— Increasingly, licensing and safety regulatory bodies require the suppliers of software-intensive, safety-critical systems to provide an explicit software safety case – a stru...
The behaviour of control functions in safety critical software systems is typically bounded to prevent the occurrence of known system level hazards. These bounds are typically deri...
