The SCSC publishes a range of documents:
The club publishes its newsletter Safety Systems three times a year in February, June and October. The newsletter is distributed to paid-up members and can be made available in electronic form for inclusion on corporate members' intranet sites.
The proceedings of the annual symposium, held each February since 1993, are published in book form. Since 2013 copies can be purchased from Amazon.
The club publishes the Safety-critical Systems eJournal (ISSN 2754-1118) containing high-quality, peer-reviewed articles on the subject of systems safety.
If you are interested in being an author or a reviewer please see the Call for Papers.
All publications are available to download free by current SCSC members (please log in first), recent books are available as 'print on demand' from Amazon at reasonable cost.
This document represents a first step towards establishing and documenting Recognised Good Practice for the safety assurance of Autonomous Systems. It has been authored by the Safety of Autonomous Systems Working Group (SASWG). Consistent with the SASWG’s aims, the document focuses on novel challenges associated with autonomy technologies.
This book represents the first release of objectives by the SASWG. It provides a small set of objectives, focused on the computation-level, that would be expected to be met in any compelling safety argument for Autonomous Systems. Whilst they are considered useful, it should be noted that these objectives have been developed from a theoretical basis; to date, they have not been subjected to practical use.
This document focuses on Autonomous Systems that use Artificial Intelligence developed using Machine Learning. Although it is possible to envisage Autonomous Systems that do not use these technologies, they are considered to represent the greatest assurance challenges. As such, they have been the focus of the SASWG’s efforts.
