Title: Estimation of the Remaining Probability of Errors in Safety Critical Software
Abstract: Safety critical software systems need to meet exceptionally strict standards in terms of dependability. Best practice in order to achieve this is to follow and develop the
software according to domain specific standards that gives guidelines on development- and testing activities. The problem is that even if you follow the appropriate standard you have not
proven the absence of errors nor do you have a quantification of the risk of errors potentially lingering in the system. This talk presents results from simulations that aim at finding an estimate
for the remaining error probability. The result is a formula with a strong correlation for this estimate.
