by Nancy Leveson, Mirna Daouk, Nicolas Dulac, and Karen Marais, Workshop on Investigation and Reporting of Incidents and Accidents (IRIA), September 2003.

This paper shows how STAMP can be applied to accident analysis using three different models of the accident process and proposes a notation for describing this process. The models are illustrated using a case study of a water contamination accident in Walkerton, Canada.
