Safety Engineering Considerations in the System Lifecycle Standards and Hazards Analysis

This presentation will specifically address:

• what a safety case is
• how risk management and hazards analysis fit into a system development life-cycle
• the hazards analysis process and supporting hazards techniques
• limitations of the software development process
• planning issues for safety-critical system development
• the latest International, IEEE standards and sector-specific standards applicable to safety-related software

Special attention will be paid to medical devices.
