The International Workshop for Autonomous System Safety (IWASS) is a joint effort by the B. John Garrick Institute for the Risk Sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA-GIRS), the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), and the Institute of Industrial Automation and Software Engineering of the University of Stuttgart.

IWASS 2025 took place on January 25th-26th in Miramar Beach, Florida, U.S., gathering various participants from academia, industry and regulatory bodies. In addition, IWASS hosted a Panel Session at the European Safety and Reliability (ESREL) and Society for Risk Analysis Europe (SRA-E) joint conference on Tuesday, June 17th in Stavanger, Norway. This report summarizes 2025 discussions and main points raised by a community of experts at both events on the status of autonomous systems’ SRS and outlines research directions for safer, more reliable, and secure autonomous systems.
