We can define a function $fm$
\begin{equation}
fm : \mathcal{C} \mapsto \mathcal{P}\mathcal{F}
fm : \mathcal{C} \rightarrow \mathcal{P}\mathcal{F}
\end{equation}

\subsection{Safety relevant Object Validation Time}
Safety times can be given for SRDO's; these are termed Safety Related Object Validation Times (SROVT's)\cite{caninauto}. For instance were

standards state \cite{en298} that the gas may not continue to be fed into the

We can say that the SROVT for a flame signal in a gas burner is 3 seconds.
\subsection{Single and Double Failure Modes}
A Safety critical system must self check within the relevant SROVT's.
