14 Safety critical software systems Monica Kristiansen Østfold University College May 2009

15 Introduction One research topic at Østfold University College is to study the challenges of using software in safety-critical systems. Today software plays a critical role in almost every aspect of our daily life. Advanced automotive systems (ABS brakes, stabilising systems) Auto pilot systems Heart pacemaker Nuclear shut-down systems Signal systems for trains In addition to develop a system that is dependable, it must be shown to be dependable as well.

16 Use of non-deterministic Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in safety-critical systems. Safety-critical software systems must be verified to ensure that the safety, reliability, availability, etc. of the system is maintained. For this to be possible, the software must be of low-complexity and behave both deterministically and predictably. This considerably reduces the possibility of using sophisticated and adaptable algorithms like non-deterministic Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in safety-critical systems. We investigate how to enable the use of ANNs in safety-critical systems without having to conduct a practicably impossible verification process.

17 The Simplex Architecture - a fault tolerant design

18 This approach has been successfully used for balancing an inverted pendulum, and is now being tested for an indoor helicopter.

19 Assessing the reliability of compound software Another research activity is related to the development of improved methods for assessing the reliability of compound software. An important challenge when assessing the reliability of compound software is to include dependency aspects in the software reliability models. Most component-based approaches today tend to ignore the failure dependencies that usually exist between software components. We propose an approach for component-based software reliability that makes it possible to quantify failure dependencies between software components. This approach combines prior information regarding the software components as well as testing.

20 Assessing the reliability of compound software This research is done in cooperation with the OECD Halden Reactor Project (HRP).
