ASIS Tutorials

We encourage all newcomers to ASIS to begin with the ASIS Tutorials.

Please avail yourself of this information. Also useful from a tutorial perspective is a variety of information from STC'99 and SIGAda'98. STC'99 included a PowerPoint presentation on ASIS (513 KBytes); SIGAda'98 included a workshop, a tutorial, a paper on the use of ASIS for assessing safety-critical requirements, and a joint SAFEWG/ASISWG BoF.
