Safety Methodology | ||||
|
This collection of safety engineering methods is compiled from four different sources as given below. Playing cards symbols [♣, ♥, ♠, ♦] refer to each source. Double symbols correspond to software appliable methods. Triple symbols refer to combined (software and non-software appliable) methods. Some methods not listed in any of these references are indicated by an asterisk. ♣ IEC ISO 31010:2009-11, Risk Management — Risk Management Techniques, 1st edition, Annex B.
