\section{State of the Art and Limits of Current Practice} \subsection{Current Reactor Procedures and Operation} %How are operating procedures made and why do they exist %what are different kinds of operating procedures %NUREG 0899 %how are procedures tested %Automation already is used for emergency systems \subsection{Human Factors in Nuclear Accidents} %Whos in the control room %how are reactor operators trained % Humans are actually really bad at doing control %most accidents are human error %Three mile island %Human factors probabilities \subsection{HARDENS and Formal Methods} % The NRC recognizes that automation and high assurance are important things to % pursue %They put out a grant to do rigorous digital engineering %Won by formal methods group galois. Galois does a bunch of formal methods work. %What is formal methods? %Rigorous digital engineering to create a reactor trip system %details of how it worked, and limitations therein %Digital system ONLY
