Overview

The construction of IT systems to meet real-world needs involves a myriad of research challenges within security, networks, and artificial and computational intelligence. The research in Critical Systems addresses the challenges posed by:

  • Complexity of many real-situations, from high-accuracy global positioning systems (GPS) to whole-of-life software engineering

  • Evaluation of security-critical, safety-critical and mission-critical computer-dependent systems

  • Systems that must be highly dependable, e.g. electronic health monitoring

  • Governance and technology frameworks for systems that must be secured against attack and misuse.
