Surrogate Measures of Safety

Library

The purpose of the SMoS library is to provide easy access to must-read literature on the subject of surrogate measures, with particular focus on the older publications that might exist only in paper form but are still highly relevant. We recommend also browsing the materials of the previous conferences as relevant contributions are frequently found there, too.
