  15. MIMIC – description from the application • In order to effectively compare the elements of safety management system and different management options, a detailed view about the current state of the system is needed. In addition, risk assessment based on realistic traffic growth scenarios, accident probabilities and their likely consequences are essential to evaluate the options. • The objective is to study and compare the effect of different management actions to avoid accidents, giving insight to the cost-effectiveness of these measures. Based on the modeling work, the most effective measures will be identified, and possible new recommendations will be presented. • One of the new and specific aims of the project is to view the problem both form the point of private companies and society and to try to find ways how society can influence the private activities in most effective way to decrease the risks. • A totally new element is to link the safety and security issues, where the same actions can support both interests, and same methodology can be used to assess the risks. • The main deliverables are a) Integrative Probabilistic Model for comparing the management actions, and b) SmartResponse Web application for decision analysis and support. • c
