The COMPSIS project is a joint project to facilitate the exchange of operating experience on computer-based systems important to safety.

The COMPSIS project's overall objective is to improve safety management and the quality of risk analysis of computer-based systems including digital I&C systems. Software and hardware faults in safety-critical systems are typically rare and consequently most countries do not experience enough of them to be able to draw any meaningful conclusions after their occurrence. Combining information from several countries has been experienced as a successful method for overcoming this problem in several other NEA joint projects, and will therefore be employed in the COMPSIS project.

The COMPSIS project is supervised and managed by a Steering Group composed of the national coordinators and additional experts from the project's member countries.

The COMPSIS project is administered under the umbrella of OECD NEA and its Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI).

Institute for Energy Technology, Halden, Norway, is the COMPSIS project Operating Agent (Clearing House).
