A Case Study on Modelling the Communication Structure of Critical Systems

摘要：

Safety-Critical systems are systems whose failure would provoke injury or death to human beings. The Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) represents a new generation of small aircrafts being conceived to extend personal air travel to a much larger segment of the population proposing new concepts of interaction and communication in aviation. In this domain,communication is a critical factor especially regarding the communication of users with the vehicle through its interfaces. This paper presents a case study in which we model the communication structure of this type of system,aiming at supporting the design of interaction in safety-critical systems. The approach is based on Semiotic theory and artefacts.
