Enhancing Safety with STPA
This chapter delves into the Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) method for improving safety in design implementations. It emphasizes the fallibility of human decision-making and the necessity of thorough reviews to uncover potential design flaws, illustrated through practical examples like road closure oversights in mapping software. By employing STPA early in design, the chapter showcases how significant issues can be identified rapidly, guiding safer and more robust systems.
