Publisher's Synopsis
This tutorial provides a practical approach to assessing modified condition/decision coverage (MC/DC) for aviation software products that must comply with regulatory guidance for DO-178B level A software. The tutorial's approach to MC/DC is a 5-step process that allows a certification authority or verification analyst to evaluate MC/DC claims without the aid of a coverage tool. In addition to the MC/DC approach, the tutorial addresses factors to consider in selecting and qualifying a structural coverage analysis tool, tips for reviewing life cycle data related to MC/DC, and pitfalls common to structural coverage analysis.Hayhurst, Kelly J. and Veerhusen, Dan S. and Chilenski, John J. and Rierson, Leanna K.Langley Research CenterSTRUCTURAL ANALYSIS; COMPUTER PROGRAMS; LIFE (DURABILITY); CLAIMING; CERTIFICATION...
