These environments are used by real people and many of those take charge of safety issues. I am promoting the importance ithas for our community that we create our own methodologies, standards, procedures and tools to develop safer systems.

I founded and help run a workshop (WORIE) and the Journal on Reliability of Intelligent Environments (JRIE) to stimulate progress in this area. 

 

I also co-directed the EU project SecUre aCCESSibility for the internet of things (SUCCESS), 2016-2019 CHIST-ERA funded as part of the 2015-2016 call on “User-Centric Security, Privacy and Trust in the Internet of Things”.

​

One problem within this area is the lack of suitable methodologies so we have developed several new methodologies within my research group, including:

• a User-centred I.E. Development Process (UC-IEDP)

• a Requirements elicitation method for Intelligent Environments (R4IE) and

• an Ethical Framework (eFRIENDS).

See more details here.

Let me know if you are interested in knowing more about these and I will be happy to explain them to you and to support you on their application to your product development.
