ECSE 553. Critical Systems.

Design and assurance of critical software-intensive cyber-physical systems (CPSs). Core concepts, standard languages (SysML, Capella), techniques and tools of model-based systems used for designing such systems including: concepts like safety cases, traceability, viewpoints of system architecture or design space exploration. Safety assurance of software-intensive critical systems; design-time and run-time verification; and validation techniques. Research challenges for the safety assurance of systems driven by machine learning and other AI techniques.
