67th ESReDA Seminar

Trustworthy Complex and Intelligent Systems

September 25th – 26th 2025,

DNV Headquarters, Høvik (Norway)

Scope

We are pleased to announce this 67th ESReDA seminar dedicated to exploring the challenges and solutions associated with developing and deploying trustworthy complex and intelligent systems. The seminar will delve into various aspects of building and managing trustworthy systems, focusing on the following topics:

  • Autonomous Systems: Advancements and challenges in the deployment of autonomous vehicles, vessels, drones, and robots, emphasizing safety and trust.
  • AI Agents: Issues related to trust and safety of agentic AI systems.
  • Complex Industrial Systems: The use of modelling, simulation, and AI for understanding, controlling, or managing complex systems.
  • Multi-Agent AI: Trust and safety issues in systems involving multiple AI entities.
  • Ethical and Social Implications and Governance: Societal impacts and governance of intelligent systems, including privacy, bias, and ethical considerations.

Call for papers:

We invite submissions from researchers, industry experts, policymakers, and practitioners interested in the development and governance of trustworthy systems. Papers may cover theoretical advances, practical implementations, case studies, and interdisciplinary approaches.

About ESReDA

ESReDA is a No-profit European Association which provides a forum for the exchange of information, data and current research in Safety and Reliability and a focus for specialist expertise.

The Safety and Reliability of processes and products are topics which are the focus of increasing interest Europe wide. Safety and Reliability Engineering is viewed as being an important component in the design of a system. However, the discipline and its tools and methods are still evolving and expertise and knowledge dispersed throughout Europe. There is a need to pool the resources and knowledge within Europe and ESReDA provides the means to achieve this.

ESReDA was established in 1992 to promote research, application and training in Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS). The Association provides a forum for the exchange of information, data and current research in Safety and Reliability and a focus for specialist expertise.
