This is the first in a series of workshops on Assured Autonomy. See the landing page for this series here to learn more.

This workshop is focused on identifying current and anticipated challenges and problems in assuring autonomous systems within and across applications and sectors.

The workshop will be structured in order to stimulate
cross-disciplinary exchange. We expect to tentatively concentrate on several challenge areas and application domains. The challenge areas include the following:

• Security and privacy.
• Safety, trust and verification.
• Test, evaluation and certification.
• Human-autonomy integration.
• Policy, regulation and ethics.

The application domains that will be represented at the workshop include the following:

• Mobility.
• Defense.
• Health and medicine.
• Civilian infrastructure
• Space.

The expected outcome of the first workshop is an interim report which will provide inputs to the planning of and the discussions during the second workshop and to the final roadmap document.
