Gresham College Lectures
Safety-Critical Systems
•
Gresham College
Professor Martyn Thomas CBE provides an in-depth analysis on the concerns surrounding today's safety-critical systems https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/safety-critical-systems
Software is an essential part of many safety-critical systems. Modern cars and aircraft contain dozens of processors and millions of lines of computer software.
This lecture looks at the standards and guidance that are used when regulators certify these systems for use. Do these standards measure up to the recommendations of a report on Certifiably Dependable Software from the US National Academies? Are they based on sound computer science?
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/safety-critical-systems
Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently over 2,000 lectures free to access or download from the website.
