Autonomous vehicle safety ("self-driving" cars) and dependable
embedded systems.
I am no longer accepting any students for research positions or advising. I
will not be able to respond to any query e-mails on this topic.
Phil Koopman sayings:
- "Blaming the driver does not prevent the next crash."
- "Getting lucky doesn't scale"
- "Getting lucky does not make it safe"
- "Safety is not about the good days -- it takes only one bad day to
show something is unsafe"
- "Did You Think Of That?" #DidYouThinkOfThat
- "Learning how to code is to software engineering as learning how to
hammer nails is to structural engineering"
- For autonomous vehicles the first 99% of development takes 99% of the time.
The other 1% takes the other 99.99999% of the time. (See also:

rule)
- Adaptation of a saying from Roy Maxion: "You might forget about the
edge cases -- but they won't forget about you."
