However, this can also be sources of additional (systemic) risks due to increased complexities and tights couplings, potential failures of complex governance structures, or incoherent technical and governance developments. We propose a research perspective of technology assessment that focuses on the interactions between technological developments and governance structures.enTechnology assessment of software-intensive critical infrastructures – a research perspectiveText/Conference Paper1617-5468
