2nd WORKSHOP ON HUMAN ERROR, SAFETY, AND SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT
April 1-2, 1998
Seattle, WA
(In cooperation with AIAA TC on Computer Systems and
Safeware Engineering Corp.)
http://www.cs.washington.edu/research/projects/safety/www/workshop/
Co-Chairs: Nancy Leveson (University of Washington)
Chris Johnson (Glasgow University)
Recent accidents in a range of industries have increased concern over
the management and control of safety-critical systems. Although we
have developed techniques to cope with failures in individual components
of complex systems, new accidents arising from interactions between the
components and related to system-level complexity and human-machine
interaction have proven more difficult to predict and prevent. The goal
of this workshop is to provide a forum for practitioners, regulators, and
researchers to discuss leading edge techniques in hazard analysis, system
safety engineering of computer-based systems, human-machine interaction
design and assessment, and accident causation and investigation. Particular
emphasis will be on the role of human error both in the development and
in the operation of complex processes and on techniques that can be
easily integrated into existing system engineering practices.
