[SystemSafety] Story in engineering

[SPRIGGS, John J]

Thanks for this, Les,
I have written a couple of pieces for the Safety-critical Systems Club journal on that topic (2001 and 2012), but I have never succeeded in finishing an actual story of the genre - some character always ends up doing something more interesting and takes the focus, whilst the original baddie, "He Who Hides Risk", gets edited out ...

Hi All
I'll be running a tutorial on the practical applications of story theory in engineering at the London IET Conference on System Safety and Cyber Security, 11 October 2016
http://conferences.theiet.org/system-safety/
If you're curious about what myths, legends, Jungian psychology and Macbeth might have to do with functional safety there is a sampling of my notes at:
