Covering technical tips and techniques for developing safety-critical avionics software in compliance with DO-178B (up to, and including, Level A design assurance), this webinar features industry experts who will highlight the processes, procedures and tools used to achieve avionics certification on the latest civil airliners. DDC-I, a supplier of software and professional services for mission- and safety-critical applications for over 30 years, and LDRA, a pioneer and global leader in automated software verification, source code analysis, and test tools covering the full development lifecycle will share their joint experiences in achieving successful avionics certification.

Using practical examples, we remove the mystery and confusion surrounding development, verification, configuration management and quality assurance. We pay special attention to traceability, independence criteria, testing and structural coverage analysis. Finally, we discuss how DO-178C is expected to build on the excellent foundation of DO-178B to assist in the next generation of certification.

Who Should Attend?

  • Software engineers and engineering managers interested in learning about developing software in compliance with industry specific standards.
  • Systems engineers interested in learning about the interface between systems & software in a safety-critical environment.

2. Migrating to DO-178C and other Avionics Software Certification Trends

The complexity of modern avionics systems in commercial and military cockpits depends more than ever software code that is reliable, safe, and secure – resulting in a long and costly development process. Boeing and Airbus have both publicly stated that certification costs are becoming exorbitantly high, calling for improved management of that process. Designers are looking to meet these demand through better tools, methods, and more efficient certification standards. An update to the DO-178B certification standard – DO-178C – accommodates many of these tools and should help code certification in future avionics systems. This webcast with industry experts will discuss these challenges, issues, and solutions.

Who Should Attend?

  • Software engineers and engineering managers interested in learning about developing software in compliance with industry specific standards.
  • Systems engineers interested in learning about the interface between systems & software in a safety-critical environment.

3. Achieving Industrial Safety using IEC 61508

Industry automations depend on Electrical/ Electronic/ Programmable Electronic (E/ E/ PE) Systems and these systems have become more and more dependent on embedded software. The reliability and risk posed by these systems became important and led to the development of the IEC 61508 standard.

This webinar will focus on IEC 61508 - Part 3 -Software Requirements, Design, implementation and Testing for E/E/PE systems and IEC 61508 - Part 7 - Overview of Techniques and Measures for Software Safety as discussed in Part 3. We also focus on the Safety Integrity Levels (SIL1 - SIL4) which specifies the necessary safety measures for avoiding an unreasonable residual risk, with SIL4 representing the most stringent level. This will focus on how software validation compliance with IEC 61508 standards can be achieved.

IEC 61508-3:2010 applies to any software forming part of a safety-related system or used to develop a safety-related system. Compared to Edition 1 of the standard IEC 61508:2010 focuses of forward and backward traceability with respect to the requirement specification and the actual implementation. This new standard also stresses the importance of structural coverage like Statement, Branch /Decision and MC/DC (Modified Condition/Decision Coverage). We pay special attention towards these aspects of the software development lifecycle and how the impact on productivity can be minimised following the adoption of IEC 61508 software development standards.

LDRA, a pioneer and global leader in automated, requirements-based software verification, source code analysis, run time error prevention and test tools covering the full development lifecycle, will share their experiences in achieving successful compliance with IEC 61508 standard for industrial software.

Who Should Attend?

  • Software engineers and engineering managers interested in learning about developing software in compliance with industry specific standards.
  • Systems engineers interested in learning about the interface between systems & software in a safety-critical environment.
