The use of microprocessors to provide safe, reliable control of railroads, aircraft, and space vehicles, is explored. Some classic examples of safety glitches are briefly described, and preventive measures in hardware and software to eliminate such problems are described. Applications to planes, trains, and spacecraft are examined.
