Abstract

The paper proposed an approach of verifying the Safety Integrity Level (SIL) for the high demand safety system. This approach is based on the Stochastic Petri Nets models and Monte Carlo simulation (SPN-MC) and follows the requirements of IEC61508, which is a commonly accepted standard in the domain of functional safety of programmable electronic and control engineering systems. The paper provides a comparative analysis of the SIL with the application of SPN-MC and the Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) method given by EN61508 to prove the correctness and feasibility of the SPN-MC approach. Additionally, a typical large scaled complex system was adopted to apply the novel approach, which is hard for classical analytical methods.
