Creating a Safety Assurance Case for an ML Satellite-Based Wildfire Detection and Alert System
Richard Hawkins, Chiara Picardi, Lucy Donnell +1
Wildfires are a common problem in many areas of the world with often catastrophic consequences. A number of systems have been created to provide early warnings of wildfires, includ…
Guidance on the Safety Assurance of Autonomous Systems in Complex Environments (SACE)
Richard Hawkins, Rob Alexander, Matt Osborne +4
Autonomous systems (AS) are systems that have the capability to take decisions free from direct human control. AS are increasingly being considered for adoption for applications wh…
Analysing Ultra-Wide Band Positioning for Geofencing in a Safety Assurance Context
Victoria Hodge, Richard Hawkins, James Hilder +1
There is a desire to move towards more flexible and automated factories. To enable this, we need to assure the safety of these dynamic factories. This safety assurance must be achi…
DEIS: Dependability Engineering Innovation for Industrial CPS
Erik Armengaud, Georg Macher, Alexander Massoner +15
The open and cooperative nature of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) poses new challenges in assuring dependability. The DEIS project (Dependability Engineering Innovation for automotiv…
Guidance on the Assurance of Machine Learning in Autonomous Systems (AMLAS)
Richard Hawkins, Colin Paterson, Chiara Picardi +3
Machine Learning (ML) is now used in a range of systems with results that are reported to exceed, under certain conditions, human performance. Many of these systems, in domains suc…
Enhancing Covid-19 Decision-Making by Creating an Assurance Case for Simulation Models
Ibrahim Habli, Rob Alexander, Richard Hawkins +4
Simulation models have been informing the COVID-19 policy-making process. These models, therefore, have significant influence on risk of societal harms. But how clearly are the und…
Model Based System Assurance Using the Structured Assurance Case Metamodel
Ran Wei, Tim P. Kelly, Xiaotian Dai +2
Assurance cases are used to demonstrate confidence in system properties of interest (e.g. safety and/or security). A number of system assurance approaches are adopted by industries…
