Reliable Nuclear Energy Software
Ann Marie Neufelder is an expert contributor to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission “NUREG/CR-7233, "Developing a Bayesian Belief Network Model for Quantifying the Probability of Software Failure of a Protection System.” This document establishes a Bayesian model for software failure rates based on expert witnesses of the development factors that affect software failure rates. Ann Marie’s expert accounts from her world’s largest database of software failure data were a key contribution to this NUREG document. Ann Marie has experience with software reliability prediction, software failure modes effects analysis, and software fault trees on oil drilling systems, oil transport systems, solar energy panels, and nuclear energy systems.
