The book describes the types of systems currently in use, their structures, and their associated creation processes, gathering practical lessons primarily from the field of railway signaling and emphasizing the critical elements that render the requirements, design, analysis, implementation, and management processes robust. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe concept of \"orthogonal views\" is introduced to analyze the processes that surround the creation of a safety critical system and quantify their independence and interdependence. Practical guides for each of the key disciplines involved in system creation are presented, including the oft-neglected management of the overall process. Lastly, possible approaches to future technology are suggested, such as those related to autonomous vehicles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSafety Critical Systems\u003c\/i\u003e includes information on: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eLimits of safety systems, methods to measure safety, absolute versus relative safety, and the relationship between safety and liability\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGeneral design considerations including complexity, self-checks, latent failures, and component failure modes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEngineering techniques including functional segmentation, independent monitoring, and compound actuating\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCommon fallacies including safety through testing, excessive maintenance as a safety measure, and the infallibility of personnel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eManagerial strategies to help engineering and safety groups thrive within an organization when the two are often at odds with one another\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSafety Critical Systems\u003c\/i\u003e provides modern safety practitioners with the knowledge they need to navigate current industry norms to assist them in analyzing systems that are well beyond what traditional techniques can easily handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMario Luigi Papini\u003c\/b\u003e is the Co-Founder of Rebus Solutions S.R.L.
