Software Safety for Model-Driven Development

Abstract

With software applications becoming increasingly complex and the demand for rapid deployment (including rapid prototyping) of software applications increasing, automated tools and updated methods for software development have become necessary. It follows that these new software development processes require new approaches for software safety. One company's 15-element Software Safety Process has now been adapted to a model-driven, spiral software development effort. This process provides an open working relationship to incrementally identify the causes of hazards at different levels.
