Abstract
The International Workshop for Autonomous System Safety (IWASS) is a joint effort by the B. John Garrick Institute for the Risk Sciences at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA-GIRS), the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and the University of Stuttgart. IWASS is an invitation-only event designed to be a platform for cross-industrial and interdisciplinary effort and knowledge exchange on autonomous systems’ Safety, Reliability, and Security (SRS). The workshop gathers experts from academia, regulatory agencies, and industry to discuss challenges and potential solutions for SRS of autonomous systems from different perspectives. It complements existing events organized around specific types of autonomous systems (e.g., cars, ships, aviation) or the safety or security-related aspects of such systems (e.g., cyber risk, software reliability). IWASS distinguishes itself from these events by addressing these topics together and proposing solutions for SRS challenges common to different types of autonomous systems. IWASS previous editions (2019 - Trondheim/Norway; 2021 - online; 2022 - Dublin/Ireland) successfully assembled a broad and diverse field of experts from different organizations and countries. IWASS proceedings summarize the discussions held during the events and provide a strong foundation concerning autonomous systems SRS, ranging from risk analysis methods, and cascading failures to “human on the loop” and regulations: 2019, 2021, 2022.
