"A State of the Practice Investigation Guiding the Development of 
Visualizations for Minimal Cut Set Analysis in safety analysis"


zum Inhalt:

Minimal Cut Set (MCS) analysis is used for the qualitative and 
quantitative analysis in safety and reliability analysis of systems. 
While many studies concerning MCS computation in the safety domain are 
found, no study gives a complete and detailed description of the tasks 
performed by practitioners during MCS analysis. The goals of this study 
are (1) to elicit the context (including the tasks) of MCS analysis; (2) 
to obtain the requirements and needs of the safety analysts; (3) and to 
assess the quality of the tools from the point of view of the safety 
engineers regarding their (3a) representation, (3b) interaction, and 
(3c) usability. This study found that the main purpose in MCS analysis 
is finding alternative improvements to increase the hazard's safety. The 
main tasks are identifying critical basic events, the related system 
components, and single points of failure. The stakeholders are mainly 
decision makers and system engineers. The main requirements are finding 
single points of failure, determining MCS order, and finding basic 
events with high failure probability and related components. The results 
show that the usability of the tools is accepted but their information 
presentation can be improved by providing overviews and the missing 
interactions.


Alle Interessierten sind im Namen von Professor Dr. Scheuermann herzlich 
eingeladen.
