Publisher's Synopsis

This report addresses various issues arising from the use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software in safety-related applications. The report argues that the integrity of software tools in many cases is not not required to match the integrity of the software which the tools are being used to produce. The report provides interim guidance and makes recommendations for the way forward to build on the findings of this preliminary study.
