Welcome to the International System Safety Conference Paper Submission Site

PAPER AND TUTORIAL SUBMISSION DATE EXTENDED TO APRIL 22, 2016

Welcome to the 34th ISSC, the premiere international conference on system safety.
The theme for ISSC 2016 is "Developing System Safety Engineers for the Future.” The conference technical program is based on training and educating new System Safety Engineers with the focus on tutorials. A separate tutorial track has been established providing ~20 hours of basic system safety engineering and management (SSEM) training focused on the new System Safety Engineer. Topics include an overview of SSEM, hazard analysis techniques, MIL-STD-882E system safety process and tasks, and SAE ARP 4761 system safety process and hazard analysis techniques. The training is endorsed by the International System Safety Society and a certificate of completion will be provided. The Technical Program will also include other tutorials, workshops, and panels, which will include advanced system safety engineering and management topics along with tutorials on managing system safety engineers. Topics include a manager’s guide to mentoring new SSEs, career progression of the SSE, and what the new SSE needs to know to be successful. Paper topics (sessions) will include general system safety engineering, human factors, accident and incident investigation, ground transportation system safety (highway and rail), and electrical and nuclear power system safety. Training sessions can also be provided by sponsors and exhibitors using their products with rooms being provided by the ISSC.

We want you to share your knowledge and we invite you to participate. Please consider one of several types of technical presentations (listed below) on any process, method, or technique that you believe contributes to the goals and objectives of system safety. This interdisciplinary conference will bring practitioners and the foremost thinkers of the system safety discipline together for an exchange of ideas, knowledge and experience. There will be contributions from many different industries including automotive; aviation, defense, healthcare, oil and gas, electronics, utilities, rail, robotics, unmanned air and ground vehicles, and other transportation systems.

The Conference is accepting four types of presentations:

Tutorials - Educational presentations conducted in 1.5 hour time slots. Tutorials may be 1.5 hours, 3 hours (1/2 day), 6 hours (1 full day) or 12 hours (2 full days) in length and are delivered by one or more instructors. They are intended to offer practical information on basic, intermediate, or advanced topics related to system safety. Most tutorials will be eligible for CEU credits. In support of the 34th ISSC theme, the conference is particularly interested in top-quality tutorials that will engage and educate attendees. More information will be provided in a separate Call for Tutorials.

Technical Papers – These papers are compositions of generally between six and not more than twelve pages written by one or more authors, dealing with a subject related to system safety. Technical papers will be reviewed by the conference technical committee, and if accepted, will be published in the conference proceedings. The author will give a presentation based on the paper at the 34th ISSC. If peer review is necessary for academic purposes, please check the box when submitting your paper

Panels/Roundtables - Discussion-oriented forums in which either a series of related presentations are delivered by a small number of experts (panelists), or a general topic is discussed somewhat informally by any or all participants. Discussions are led by a facilitator and are normally 1.5 hours in length.

Workshops – These are half-day (3 hours) or one-day (6 hours) forums focused on areas in which we hope to advance the discipline of system safety.
