Software Reliability for Defense training

The software reliability for defense training class provides the software reliability and software FMEA methods that reliability engineers working for the Government need to acquire and assess software-intensive systems.  The training models such as the IEEE 1633 software reliability training class, Software FMEA training class, Integrating Software and Hardware Reliability training class, Software fault tree analysis training class, Software Safety training class, have been tailored for DoD systems.  In addition we have other training modules such as “Reliable Statement of Work”, “Making a release decision” tailored for the DoD personnel.

Target Audience

DoD personnel who acquire software-intensive systems.  

Typically the students have significant background in hardware reliability but limited exposure to software engineering or software reliability engineering.

Objectives

  1. Understand software failures and software reliability
  2. Understand the methods for predicting software reliability
  3. Understand the software failure modes and root causes
  4. Understand how the software FMEA is conducted
  5. Understand the common mistakes that people make when conducting the software FMEA
  6. Understand the methods available for predicting software reliability
  7. Understand the methods available for tracking software reliability growth
  8. Understand how to incorporate the software reliability predictions into a reliability block diagram or fault tree
  9. Understand how to derive a quantitative system-level reliability objective that includes software
  10. Understand how to assess the contractor’s deliverables
  11. Understand how to develop an SOW for reliability objectives

Tools

  1. Toolkit for determining the appropriate software reliability tasks for a software-intensive DoD system based on the size of the program and the type of system.
  2. Toolkit for assessing software reliability developed specifically for DoD personnel
  3. SOW language for specifying software reliabilityilityility

Course Delivery

  1. Virtual instructor guided
  2. Virtual self guided
  3. On site
