RS Dallas Chapter Members Meeting with REU Students of 2021
Lecture on Software Safety: Process Overview and Application
Since 2009, the Dallas Chapter of IEEE Reliability Society (RS) has actively engaged in the
Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program organized by the Department of
Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) under the supervision of Professor
W. Eric Wong. This is funded by the US National Science of Foundation (NSF) with ten
undergraduates selected nationwide for a ten-week research program. A special welcome is
extended to students from underrepresented groups (women, minorities, and persons with
disabilities) and academic institutions with limited research opportunities.
The focus is on “software safety and reliability”, however, the technology and skills learned by
the students have general applicability to research and practice in their future studies. We provide
a close collaboration with our industry partners. In addition to working on assigned research
projects at UTD, lectures by practitioners from Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company and Argo
Data will be arranged to help the students better understand how software safety and reliability is
adopted in practice for real-life applications. This also gives students a chance to directly
communicate with engineers to receive a first-hand account of work environments and lifestyles
in the industry.
