W1: Safety Instrumented Systems for Automotive and Industrial Applications
| Type: | Workshop |
| Title: | Safety Instrumented Systems for Automotive and Industrial Applications |
| Duration: | Half-day |
| Time: | TBA |
| Location: | TBA |
| Workshop coordinator: | Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Josef Börcsök |
Workshop is dedicated to the research area of reliable safety structures and systems based on different hardware and software architectures.
The penetration of digital computer systems and software implemented functionalities increases consistently including in safety-critical systems in industrial and automotive fields of application. Safety technologies for computer architectures, sensors, communications and system programming are gaining more importance, nationally and internationally. Quantitative and qualitative criteria are necessary in order to evaluate and judge safety related systems, which are necessary when such systems should be used in safety critical applications. Also, in safety systems, the diagnostic is an important subject and an important research domain. The workshop discusses interesting issues on safety related architectures, protocols, calculations, maintenance and strategies for the development of safety systems.
Topics more closely dealt with during the half day workshop shall include the following:
- Safety architectures
- Safety related real time systems
- Safety related communication
- Safety related protocols
- Validation and verification
- Safety related parameters
- Security Issues of safety related systems
- Safety-oriented system design
- Safety for critical systems
- Engineering for system robustness and reliability
- Hazard analysis preparedness
- Cost and effectiveness of system safety
- Verification and validation of safety
- Safety tools
- Safety control and management
- Evaluation of safety data, and mitigation and prevention strategies
- System Safety Implementation Guidelines and Standards
- Industry specific safety systems
- Safety of software systems, software engineering and modelling

| Josef Börcsök was born in 1959. He received his B.Sc. degree in 1986 (University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt), the M.Sc. degree in 1991 (University of Kassel) and the Ph. D. in 1995 (Technical University of Ilmenau). He was for more than 10 years researchers in leading positions in industries (Avionics, Industrial Control and Safety-Computer). During this time he lectured at several universities, including the subjects of automation systems, computer technology, real-time systems, network techniques and safety-related computer technology. Since 2005 he is Professor and head of the Department Computer Architecture and System Programming at the University of Kassel in Germany.The major research interests are in the field of modelling of safety-related computer technology, real-time systems, network techniques, sensor and distributed sensor systems and calculations models for PFD/PFH and MTTF. Since years he worked on several national and international boards on standards and he is a member of DKE committees, IEEE, IET and BCS. He has more than 120 publications in refereed conferences and international journals. Additionally, he is the author of 12 books. | |
