Abstract

Software Engineering is primarily a human process and consideration of human factors in safety-related software systems should always be mindful of the role that software practitioners themselves play in the delivery of those systems. As a Software Engineering Project Manager I have had responsibility for most aspects of the software development lifecycle and for guiding the software practitioners towards a successful outcome. This paper explores some experiences managing the delivery of software into the public safety-related emergency services environment, and the challenges of requirements analysis, design and implementation of software-intensive public safety systems.
