Requs AI PREDICT & Requs Software FMEA

Requs AI Predict and Requs software FMEA are the first machine learning tools to predict quantity and types of software failures

REQUS AI PREDICT

Mission Ready Software has the largest database of software reliability data.  We know what factors relate to more reliable software while everyone else is guessing.  Engineering companies use our models in defense, aerospace, space, vehicle, energy, medical, semiconductor, electronics, and other industries. 

Requs AI Predict is the only software tool that predicts software reliability using machine learning before the code is written.   Software reliability prediction is made easy with Requs AI Predict.  You answer some questions, and the machine learning model predicts the software’s reliability.  The more questions you can answer, the more accurate the prediction. The software has prefilled templates for different industries and quality levels to expedite the time needed to generate the prediction. The user interface is easy to use, with tooltips that explain every input and an online help system that describes the models, inputs, and results.

The critical factors for predicting software defects are end user domain knowledge of software engineers; precise and complete specifications; level of rigor in developer, integration, and system testing;  fault-tolerant designs;  ability to plan and execute the project; decomposition (code a little; test a little); employing pictures, tables, models in design and specification; ability to manage change control and corrective actions; and the number of inherent risks. 

 

Requs Predict is a dedicated license, floating license, or monthly subscription.  Requs Software FMEA is also available.  The same assessment survey in Requs Predict is also used to predict the failure modes and their likelihood.  The Requs suite is the only suite to predict both the reliability and an intelligent software FMEA in one tool.

 

REQUS SOFTWARE FMEA

The Requs Top-level Software FMEA Assessment provides for intelligent software FMEA assessment.  Failure Modes Effects Analysis can be time-consuming for both hardware and software.  This intelligent software completes the tredious aspects of the software FMEA so that the analysts can focus on the part that they know best – the effects.

Requs Software FMEA can be used to tag failure modes to both mission and safety hazards.  The output of Requs Software FMEA can be used for a software hazards analysis.

The user enters information about the software and its operational profile.   The software outputs the failure modes, effects, likelihood, and severity.  The FMEA assessment is a top-level assessment based on the common defects since 1962, which have been documented on the DAU R&M Community of Practice website. The Requs software determines which of the known software failure modes are applicable and the likelihood based on the type of software, the development practices, and the industry.  The FMEA assessment includes the failure modes, root causes, effects, likelihood, severity, and recommended controls.  The software FMEA assessment worksheets and reports are tailor-made.

Mission Ready Software is the only company tracking and analyzing software failure modes for failure mode and root cause.  We possess hundreds of thousands of failure events categorized by failure mode and root cause by application type and industry. This data is why our tool can intelligently produce a software Failure Modes Effects Analysis assessment

Software failure mode effects analysis is most effective before the software is finished.  By reducing the calendar time and effect required to complete the FMEA assessment, you can also improve the effectiveness while reducing cost.
