METRIC EVALUATION OF MANAGEMENT OF MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS FOR NPP I&C SOFTWARE WITHIN THE V-SHAPED MODEL OF THE LIFE CYCLE
Keywords:
requirements, software, metric approach, requirements evaluation
Abstract
An approach to metric assessment of meeting the requirements for Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) Instrumentation and Control System (I&CS) software in accordance with the V-shaped model of the software development life cycle is considered. A number of metrics for evaluating compliance are proposed; such metrics can be used in requirements management. The calculation of the proposed metrics is presented for real examples of evaluating the management of functional safety requirements. The proposed approach allows you to describe the best options for the distribution of requirements by stages of the life cycle model, to determine the return point in the life cycle for each of the requirements, as well as options for its non-fulfillment. This, in turn, allows you to manage the fulfillment of requirements, in particular, to determine various return scenarios (affecting the completeness of checks) and the types of appropriate corrective actions in order to reduce project costs. The proposed set of metrics is part of the toolkit to verify compliance with functional safety requirements and was used in the implementation of the RadICS platform licensing project for compliance with the requirements of the IEC61508 / SIL3 standard.Downloads
