Abstract
Cooperative Systems of Systems (CSoS) including Autonomous systems (AS), such as autonomous cars and related smart traffic infrastructures form a new technological frontier for their enormous economic and societal potentials in various domains. CSoS are often safety-critical systems, therefore, they are expected to have a high level of dependability. Due to the open and adaptive nature of the CSoS, the conventional methods used to provide safety assurance for traditional systems cannot be applied directly to these systems. Potential configurations and scenarios during the evolving operation are infinite and cannot be exhaustively analysed to provide guarantees a priori. This paper presents a novel framework for dynamic safety assurance of CSoS, which integrates design time models and runtime techniques to provide continuous assurance for a CSoS and its systems during operation.
