Study of an Accreditation Policy for Navy Embedded Computers,

Abstract

This report presents the analysis and conclusions of PRC/ISC's study of the Navy's proposal for a policy for accreditation for embedded computers. The concept of accreditation, as advanced by the Navy, can be summarized as the reliance on the availability of competing computers in each of various performance ranges. These computers would then provide each Program Manager with competing alternatives that could be used in designing a system with a resultant reduction in the total life cycle costs for the system. The Accreditation Policy is viewed as an effort to relieve some of the problems currently experienced by the Navy in the acquisition, use and support of embedded computers.
