[SystemSafety] Textbook: Digital System Safety

[Peter Bernard Ladkin]

Folks,

A draft of my textbook Digital System Safety is now available at
https://rvs-bi.de/publications/RVS-Bk-17-02.html . After an introductory chapter to system safety
and some techniques, it treats the IEC conception of system safety procedures

* Hazard Identification (HazID)
* Hazard Analysis (HazAn, consisting of HazID + Severity Analysis)
* Risk Analysis

as well as a fourth we consider essential

* Incident and Accident Analysis

using our ontological approach, applying the methods

* Objects, Properties, Relations and Assertions (OPRA) to define a system ontology
* Ontological Hazard Analysis (OHA) to perform HazAn
* Why-Because Analysis (WBA) for accident and incident analysis

to examples taken from our experience and from (fairly) recent events. The exercises are based
largely on further analysis of the examples treated in the chapters.
