Together with ECVAM, COLIPA has been involved in the development and validation of alternative methods since the beginning of the validation efforts. The work of the Steering Committee on Alternatives to Animal Testing (SCAAT) is based on collaboration be...

Stålmarck’s proof procedure is a method of tautology checking that has been used to verify railway interlocking software. Recently, it has been proposed [SS98] that the method has potential to increase the capacity of formal verification tools for hardware. In this paper, we examine this potential in light of an experiment in the opposite direction: the application of symbolic model checking to...

-In a substation, a lot of distributed, safety related functions have to be performed. IEC 61850 is intended to replace all wires by serial communication. To achieve this goal IEC 61850 has to fulfill hard real-time criteria. Starting from the definition of these criteria the communication methods of IEC 61850 are investigated. The result shows the feasibility of these methods for interlocking ...

Arterial pseudoaneurysm formation of the genicular vessels following orthopaedic surgery to the knee is an extremely rare occurrence. Here we report the successful management of two cases as a complication of total knee arthroplasty and a tibial interlocking nail, utilising coil embolisation by interventional radiological techniques and negating the need for further surgery. To our knowledge th...

In the railway domain, an interlocking is the system ensuring a safe train traffic inside a station by controlling its active elements such as the switches or the signals. Modern interlockings are configured using particular data, called application data, reflecting the topology of the station and defining the actions that the interlocking can take. The safety of the train traffic relies thereb...
