In 2005 the OECD/NEA Steering Committee agreed to establish the international Computer-based Systems Important to Safety (COMPSIS) project to encourage multilateral co-operation in the collection and analysis of data relating to computer-based system events in nuclear facilities. The main objective of the project was to improve the safety of nuclear facilities by utilising operating experience and providing common resources for the analytical framework of qualitative and quantitative assessments.
The purpose of this report is to determine whether the published events collected during the extended second period of the COMPSIS project provide the opportunity for extracting lessons learned and improve the safety of nuclear facilities when modernising with digital computer-based equipment. Since all measurements are in error in some way or another, a method must be employed to determine viable lessons that cna be used to develop defences against event occurrences.
