Benchmark exercise on safety evaluation of computer-based systems

Objective

The project is concerned with a benchmark exercise devoted to the evaluation and comparison of techniques for the assessment of a safety-related computer-based system embedded in a nuclear installation, with particular attention to the software part. In this project, the industrial partner will supply a reference case study and all the documentation needed to carry out the benchmark exercise, whilst the other partners will mainly contribute in reviewing known assessment techniques and in applying a subset of them to the case study commonly agreed by all the partners in the course of the project. Comparison criteria will be properly chosen and designed in order to carry out the evaluation and comparison of the involved techniques.
