Incorporating Cost-Benefit Analyses into Software Assurance Planning
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective is to use cost-benefit analyses to identify, for a given project, optimal sets of software assurance activities. Towards this end we have incorporated costbenefit calculations into a risk management framework. The net result is the capability to rapidly explore the costs and benefits of sets of assurance decisions. We describe the cost-benefit aspects of our framework , and demonstrate them on a small illustrative example. We then address the issues raised by seeking to apply this approach to software assurance planning for large-scale software development efforts.

This paper presents a production-inventory model for deteriorating items with stock-dependent demand under inflation in a random planning horizon. The supplier offers the retailer fully permissible delay in payment. It is assumed that the time horizon of the business period is random in nature and follows exponential distribution with a known mean. Here learning effect is also introduced for th...

متن کاملThe Erasmus MC Prostate Treatment Planning QA dataset, for evaluation of treatment planning QA models
IMRT treatment planning with commercial treatment planning systems is a trial-and-error process, based on a series of subjective human decisions. Therefore the quality of the IMRT treatment plans may not be consistent among patients, planners or institutions with different experience. Different plan quality assurance (QA) models have been proposed recently, that could flag suboptimal plans that...
