Here's the infamous paper by Nancy Leveson: http://courses.cs.vt.edu/cs3604/lib/Therac_25/Therac_1.html

(original PDF if you have access to the IEEE: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=...)

And an updated PDF: http://sunnyday.mit.edu/papers/therac.pdf

It's one of the first paper's read in 6.033 (Computer Systems Engineering) at MIT, which is actually taught by rtm.
