The programme for the Second Safety-critical Systems Symposium was
planned to examine the various aspects of technology currently
employed in the design of safety-critical systems, as well as to
emphasise the importance of safety and risk management in their
design and operation. assessment There is an even balance of
contributions from academia and industry. Thus, industry is given
the opportunity to express its views of the safety-critical domain
and at the same time offered a glimpse of the technologies which
are currently under development and which, if successful, will be
available in the medium-term future. In the field of technology, a
subject whose importance is increasingly being recognised is human
factors, and there are papers on this from the University of
Hertfordshire and Rolls-Royce. Increasingly, PLCs are being
employed in safety-critical applications, and this domain is
represented by contributions from Nuclear Electric and August
Computers. Then there are papers on maintainability, Ada, reverse
engineering, social issues, formal methods, and medical systems,
all in the context of safety. And, of course, it is not possible to
keep the 'new' technologies out of the safety-critical domain:
there are papers on neural networks from the University of Exeter
and knowledge-based systems from ERA Technology.
