Composed of 36 chapters, separated into the eight sessions of the workshop, this book begins with a discussion of the safety and reliability of computer control systems. Subsequent chapters explore the systems design for safety and reliability; fault tolerance, recovery, and use of redundancy; and aspects of fault tolerance for system reliability. Other chapters detail specification techniques; system development and quality assurance; verifications and validations; case studies; as well as scheduling, networks, and communications.
