Guidelines for Software Tool Qualification
نویسندگان
چکیده
Contents Software Productivity Consortium (Consortium) members applying the tools for both the requirement and design model-driven verification and validation are often required to certify their software with various certification authorities such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These certifications require methods and supporting artifacts for qualifying the tools used for software development and verification. This report provides guidelines for how to use tool qualification information to support certification processes. Introduction 1 Background Context for Tool Qualification 3 Fundamentals of Tool Qualification 6 Tool Qualification Support for TAF and T-VEC 10 Qualifying TAF and T-VEC for a Project 16 Summary 16 References 17

متن کاملISO 26262 - Exemplary Tool Classification of Model-Based Design Tools
Tool classification is an important part of the tool qualification process required by ISO 26262 since it determines the required confidence level for each tool in use. To cover the variety of tools used by practitioners, the standard only provides a framework for tool classification and leaves it up to the applicant to instantiate this framework. To illustrate the ISO 26262 tool classification...
متن کاملSoftware Tool Qualification According to ISO 26262
International standards that define requirements for the development of safety-related systems typically also define required confidence levels for the software tools used to develop those systems. The standards define—to a greater or lesser extent— procedures to classify, validate, certify, or qualify tools. To date, there is no common approach for tool validation, certification, and qualifica...
