| Syllabus: | This unit contains in-depth coverage of specialised software engineering topics with a focus on managing quality, reliability, and safety, and the verification and validation of software-based systems. Requirements engineering and real-time system analysis using formal methods and graphical modelling languages are also presented in the context of managing project quality, safety and reliability. Specific Syllabus topics include the following: Critical systems concepts, specification, development and validation. Processes for verification and validation of software-based systems. Processes for managing safety and reliability. Strategies for improving reliability using fault tolerance in software-based systems. The use of graphical modelling languages and formal specification techniques (Z, UML) to overcome difficulties communicating synchronization and timing issues in real time systems and facilitating formal reasoning. Evolving and assessing a mature quality management system (ISO 9000:2000, CMM, CMM-I). |
