This paper presents a modelling approach for avionics that allows for automatic computation of the safety of large and heavily interdependent systems, and shall help to quickly evaluate candidate system configurations during early and intermediate design. It is part of a project striving to automatise some steps of the design process by applying an optimisation algorithm which searches for system configurations that fulfil the safety requirements and have low costs.optimisation_algorithm computers computational_modelingCommunity for tag(s) optimisation_algorithm computers computational_modeling
