ESC SV Conference Handouts

Thanks to everyone who attended my talk at ESC SV!  There were about 80 attendees, and I especially appreciated the many questions and insightful comments from the audience.

The organizers ran out of handouts, so I'm posting the handout Acrobat file so everyone can get a copy. This copy has been updated to include some last-minute changes I made right before the talk. It summarizes a lot of the areas covered by my book:

Avoiding the Top 43 Embedded Software Risks (handouts), Phil Koopman, ESC SV, May 2011

You can also see the accompanying paper at this link.
Enjoy!
