About this event
The Australian System Safety Conference (ASSC) is organised by the Australian Safety Critical Systems Association (aSCSa), a Special Interest Group of the Australian Computer Society.
The theme for the 2023 conference is “Closing the Loop: Incorporating Humans into Systems”. With systems growing increasingly complex, we are exploring the role of Humans in modern systems, particularly the contribution of Humans to System Safety and Cybersecurity. As systems are starting to incorporate more artificial intelligence, machine learning, autonomous agents, etc., we are exploring the changing role of the human element: when should humans be in-the-loop, on-the-loop, or out-of-the-loop?
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, systems engineering, safety assurance, human factors, cybersecurity and social engineering, security assurance, reliance, automation, collaboration, teamwork, trust, and assurance standards.

Speakers
Professor Anjum Naweed is an applied researcher and Certified Professional Ergonomist. He is internationally regarded for his applied and theoretical advancements in transport human factors. Anjum’s research interests include complex decision-making and knowledge representation in skilled work, job design, creative and cultural applications of simulation, safety science, and systems thinking. His expertise is in understanding the relationship between people, technologies, tools, environments, and systems, and practically translating this across the complex domains.
Anjum has co-edited books, written over 150 peer reviewed articles and secured over $6 million in research funding. At the Appleton Institute—CQUniversity Adelaide, Anjum leads the Human Factors and Operational Readiness research cluster. He currently serves as a Scientific Editor for Applied Ergonomics, an international journal aimed at all those interested in applying ergonomics and human factors in the design, planning and management of technical and social systems. Anjum has been a Scientific Convenor for the Australasian Simulation Congress on five consecutive occasions, and for the Annual Conference of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society of Australia twice.
