Test-linked specification for safety-critical software
Proceedings of the Thirtieth Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences
The great difficulties that are encountered when reliability requirements for critical software have to be validated motivate an approach that facilitates testing for exceptional conditions that the software ...
It is shown that in several published studies, failures in previously tested critical programs occurred when rare events were encountered in the execution. ...
Introduction Safety-critical software is frequently required to have a failure probability of less than 10 -6 per hour, and in some cases less than 10 -9 per hour. ...

From Fault Injection to Mutant Injection: The Next Step for Safety Analysis?
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose to use specification mutation, model checking, and model-based testing to verify safety kernels for component-based, safety-critical computer systems. ...
Mutation testing has been used to assess test suite coverage, and researchers have proposed adapting the idea for other uses. ...

Enabling traceability reuse for impact analyses: A feasibility study in a safety context
2013
2013 7th International Workshop on Traceability in Emerging Forms of Software Engineering (TEFSE)
Engineers working on safety critical software development must explicitly specify trace links as part of Impact Analyses (IA), both to code and non-code development artifacts. ...
We studied an Issue Management System (IMS), from within a company in the power and automation domain, containing 4,845 IA reports from 9 years of development relating to a single safety critical system ...
An engineer performing IA for a similar issue could use this information both for test case selection, and as a warning that also the new issue under investigation might be safety critical. ...

Traceability-Why Do It?
[chapter]
2012
Communications in Computer and Information Science
Given the importance of traceability in the regulated domain of safety critical software, the paper compares the motivations and benefits for organizations operating inside and outside of this domain. ...
However, evidence indicates that, with the exception of those operating in the safety critical domain, few software companies choose to implement traceability processes, in the most part due to cost and ...
