The failure of a safety-critical system could result in loss of life, significant financial loss, damage to the environment, etc. Safety-critical contexts arise,for example, in the development of drugs, in the flight control of aircraft, in buildng processes. Especial atttention attention to safety issues is needed in the design and developmen of such systems; in particular, the adoption of a safety culture is advised. | The failure of a safety-critical system could result in loss of life, significant financial loss, damage to the environment, etc. Safety-critical contexts arise,for example, in the development of drugs, in the flight control of aircraft, in buildng processes.
