Design Flowchart for Operational System Safety

Abstract

Design is a predominant phase in the life cycle of any product. Referring to a number of reviews, this chapter cites design support tools, focusing in particular on security system and operational safety. It tried to define these two notions (safety, security) as well as the difference between them. It proposed a design aid model that can be adopted by designers in the design phases of new systems, or during their life cycle, based on the “Teorija Reshenija Izobretateliskih Zadatch” (TRIZ) and Failure Modes Vulnerabilities and Effect Analysis (FMVEA) methods. In the first instance, the authors' model enables newly-designed products to give impetus to production systems, for which they use the resolution matrix for technical contradictions. Secondly, it enables these systems to be improved, for which they suggested adopting the FMVEA method tables.
