Establishing Confidence in Safety Assessment Evidence [PDF]
With the increased complexity and higher safety commitment of modern safety–critical systems, safety assessment models of these systems are increasingly complicated and obscure.

Incremental Assurance Through Eliminative Argumentation [PDF]
An assurance case for a critical system is valid for that system at a particular point in time, such as when the system is delivered to a certification authority for review.

Ethical and legal considerations have led to increased use of non-animal methods to evaluate the safety of chemicals for human use. We describe the development and qualification of a physiologically-based kinetics (PBK) model for the cosmetic UV filter ...

An Assurance Framework for Independent Co-assurance of Safety and Security [PDF]
Integrated safety and security assurance for complex systems is difficult for many technical and socio-technical reasons, such as mismatched processes, inadequate information, differing use of language and philosophies, etc.

Concepts of Safety Critical Systems Unification Approach & Security Assurance Process
The security assurance of computer-based systems that rely on safety and security assurance, such as consistency, durability, efficiency and accessibility, require or need resources. This targets the System-of-Systems (SoS) problems with the exception of

Constructing safety assurance cases for medical devices
S.40-45This paper lays out a approach for safety assurance case argumentation. The approach links together in a principled manner a device's highest-level safety claims, operating environments and hazards; and its safety requirements, final ...

Probative blindness and false assurance about safety [PDF]
Safety activities may provide assurance of safety even where such assurance is unwarranted. This phenomenon – which we will call “probative blindness” – is evident both in hindsight analysis of accidents and in the daily practice of safety work.

Life cycle assessment needs predictive spatial modelling for biodiversity and ecosystem services
Life cycle assessments are used by corporations to determine the sustainability of raw source materials. Here, Chaplin-Krameret al. develop an improved life cycle assessment approach incorporating spatial variation in land-use change, and apply this ...
