论文摘要

自主系统(AS)是有能力从直接人类控制中采取决策的系统。正如越来越多地考虑在其行为可能造成伤害的应用中采用的那样,例如用于自动驾驶,医疗应用或在家庭环境中的应用。对于此类应用,能够确保并证明(确保)AS操作的安全性对于其采用至关重要。在复杂和不断变化的现实环境中运行时,这可能特别具有挑战性。建立对AS安全的合理信心,需要创建引人注目的安全案例。本文档介绍了一种在复杂环境(SACE)中自治系统安全性的方法。 SACE包括一组安全案例模式以及(1)系统地将安全保证整合到AS和(2)生成证据基础的开发中,以明确证明AS可接受的安全性。

Autonomous systems (AS) are systems that have the capability to take decisions free from direct human control. AS are increasingly being considered for adoption for applications where their behaviour may cause harm, such as when used for autonomous driving, medical applications or in domestic environments. For such applications, being able to ensure and demonstrate (assure) the safety of the operation of the AS is crucial for their adoption. This can be particularly challenging where AS operate in complex and changing real-world environments. Establishing justified confidence in the safety of AS requires the creation of a compelling safety case. This document introduces a methodology for the Safety Assurance of Autonomous Systems in Complex Environments (SACE). SACE comprises a set of safety case patterns and a process for (1) systematically integrating safety assurance into the development of the AS and (2) for generating the evidence base for explicitly justifying the acceptable safety of the AS.
