you cannot use Google Docs]
 
    Although there is no registration fee, I need to know how many people
are coming to know what size rooms to reserve, to have a mailing list for
details about the meeting so I don't have to spam everyone, etc.
    Last year there were 300 registrations.
 
*Reminder: Abstracts for potential presentations are due Dec. 1.*

*Seventh MIT STAMP/STPA Workshop*
 
*Call for Participation*
 
March 26-29, 2018
 
MIT, Cambridge, MA
 
STAMP is a new accident causality model based on systems theory and systems
thinking described in Nancy Leveson’s book “*Engineering a Safer World*.”
 STAMP integrates into engineering analysis the causal factors in our
increasingly complex systems such as software, human-decision making and
human factors, new technology, social and organizational design, and safety
culture. STPA is a powerful new hazard/cybersecurity analysis technique
based on STAMP while CAST is the equivalent for accident/incident analysis.
These tools are now used globally in almost every industry.
 
This free workshop will provide attendees with the opportunity to learn how
to use these new tools, to meet with users and to hear about applications,
evaluations, and the latest developments in this powerful new approach to
system safety engineering and to cyber security. A full day of free
tutorials will be held on March 26. The following three days will involve
presentations, panels, etc.
 
Because STPA is starting to be used widely in industry, this year a special
emphasis will be on sessions and topics related to introducing STAMP and
STPA into large organizations.
 
In the past, presenters have come from industry, government, and academia.
Application areas have included aviation, air traffic control, medical
devices, healthcare, oil and gas, automotive, railways, chemicals, space,
human factors, robots, security, defense, workplace safety, etc.
 
If you would like to make a presentation, please send an abstract or
description of what you would like to present to leveson at mit.edu. <http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/stamp_forum>  It should
be related to STAMP but otherwise the topics are open.
 
 Due date Dec. 1: Send to leveson at mit.edu <http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/stamp_forum> 
   -    Interest in making a presentation (2-3 page description of the
content of your proposed presentation):
              Please include enough information that we can evaluate the
content of the presentation for appropriateness at the workshop
 
    -    Other types of sessions you would like to lead or participate in
(including a poster session)
    -     Proposals or suggestions for tutorial or other sessions
    -     Additional suggestions for the meeting or other ways you might
like to participate
 
Abstracts and suggestions will be accepted after Dec. 1, but will have a
lower priority than those sent by the due date.
 
Possible Topics for Presentations (not limited to these):
-         Experiences using STPA, STPA-Sec, and CAST
-      Introducing STAMP, STPA, and CAST into large organizations
-         Safety-guided and Security-guided design using STPA and STPA-Sec
-      Using STPA to make decisions
-         Accident/loss analyses
-         Certification and regulatory issues
-         Evaluations and comparisons with traditional techniques
-         Risk management and identifying leading indicators
-         Applications to security and other areas such as workplace safety
-        Safety Management System development and evaluation
-         Tools, processes, and other support for analysis and design using
STPA and CAST
-         Management and adoption experiences or challenges
-         Applications to other emergent properties (beyond safety and
security)
 
 Program: Notification about acceptance and a detailed program will be
available by the end of January. We will provide a registration website
although the meeting will again this year not have a registration fee.
 
 Additional Information: The PSAS website (http://psas.scripts.mit.edu/home)
contains the presentations from past workshops and will provide more
information about this one (including registration information) as it
becomes available.
