Abstract
In March 2007, the Technical Committee on System Safety (TCSS) under the IEEE System Society held its first international workshop on issues relating to safety of systems of national and global significance. The workshop provided an open working forum to contribute to the goal of obtaining a holistic view of system safety for a better understanding of the system safety discipline. Because technical societies contain expertise in various slices of the discipline of system safety, obtaining both the big picture and coordination among the separate initiatives is difficult to achieve in any one specific society. We envision the workshop becoming a unique integrating forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss the practical issues associated with safety of systems.
