The Efficacy of DO-178B

نویسنده

  • Dewi Daniels
چکیده

DO-178B was based on the consensus of the avionic software community as it existed in 1992. Twenty two years after publication, we have no publically available experimental data as to its efficacy. It appears to work extremely well, since there have been no hull loss accidents in passenger service ascribed to software failure. This is a comforting and surprising result. However, if we don’t know why DO-178B works so well, there is a danger that we could stop doing something that really matters, which could lead to an accident.

Automating Code Reviews with Simulink Code Inspector

Safety standards such as DO-178B require source code reviews. Given the maturity of today‟s code generators, the effectiveness of manual reviews of automatically generated code is rather limited. This results in a strong desire to automate reviews of automatically generated code. This paper introduces Simulink Code Inspector TM , a novel tool to automate manual code reviews of C source code gen...
