      Here’s a decent textbook that covers the software side in aerospace (DO-178):

      https://www.amazon.ca/Developing-Safety-Critical-Software-Pr...

      You can read up on the system safety side in documents like ARP5754 and ARP4761 and hardware side in DO-254.

      I would recommend reading "Developing Safety-Critical Software: A Practical Guide for Aviation Software and DO-178C Compliance".

      The only one I've ready cover to cover is: "Developing Safety-Critical Software: A Practical Guide for Aviation Software and DO-178C Compliance"

      It's on par with everything else I've seen. I've skimmed through a few other books on the same area. They all appear to cover the same stuff.

      I'd recommend the above book to see what most of safety-critical software is (documentation).
