Abstract
A method for operating application software in a safety critical environment, comprises loading application software into a computing system, linking the computing system to a set of safety critical rules to verify that the safety critical operations performed by the computing system satisfy rule criteria and running the application software in the computing system. Safety critical operations are performed as background functions during the running of the application software and if a failure to satisfy criteria for a safety critical operation is detected, the system determines the application specific operation being currently performed. The criteria, the action to be taken or both is dynamically adjusted if the currently performed application specific operation is critical operation.
