Download or read book A Framework for Software Reuse in Safety Critical System of Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis concerns the effective and safe software reuse in safety-critical system-of-systems. Software reuse offers many unutilized benefits such as achieving rapid system development, saving resources and time, and keeping up technologically in an increasingly advancing global environment. System software needs to be designed for both reuse and safety and available information shared effectively. We introduce a process neutral framework for software reuse in safety-critical system of systems. That framework consists of four elements: organizational factors, component attributes, component specification, and safety analysis. We developed a model (C5RA) to capture the relevant component information and assist in specification matching. We conducted a survey of software safety metrics, created metrics, and developed a ranking. We applied the framework utilizing the reuse of a generic avionics software component. Our key findings are that congruence between all elements is required; software should posses certain attributes with metrics that support a safe design; software component information can be specified using C5RA; and a process was identified for a system-of-systems hazard analysis for software reuse. The framework outlined provides a solution that enables effective software reuse in safety-critical system of systems.
Download or read book Software Security Engineering written by Muthu Ramachandran and published by Nova Science Pub Incorporated. This book was released on 2012 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software engineering has established techniques, methods and technology over two decades. However, due to the lack of understanding of software security vulnerabilities, we have been not successful in applying software engineering principles when developing secured software systems. Therefore software security can not be added after a system has been built as seen on today's software applications. This book provides concise and good practice design guidelines on software security which will benefit practitioners, researchers, learners, and educators. Topics discussed include systematic approaches to engineering; building and assuring software security throughout software lifecycle; software security based requirements engineering; design for software security; software security implementation; best practice guideline on developing software security; test for software security and quality validation for software security.

Download or read book Software Reuse written by James W. Hooper and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Observers in the present usually have an advantage when it comes to interpreting events of the past. In the case of software reuse, how ever, it is unclear why an idea that has gained such universal accep tance was the source of swirling controversy when it began to be taken seriously by the software engineering community in the mid-1980's. From a purely conceptual point of view, the reuse of software de signs and components promises nearly risk-free benefits to the devel oper. Virtually every model of software cost and development effort predicts first-order dependencies on either products size or the num ber of steps carried out in development. Reduce the amount of new product to be developed and the cost of producing the product de creases. Remove development steps, and total effort is reduced. By reusing previously developed engineering products the amount of new product and the number of development steps can be reduced. In this way, reuse clearly has a major influence on reducing total development cost and effort. This, of course, raises the issue of from whence the reused products arise. There has to be a prior investment in creating "libraries of reuse products before reuse can be successfuL . . " How can organizations with a "bottom line" orientation be enticed into contributing to a reuse venture? Fortunately, the economics of reuse l resembles many other financial investment situations .
Download or read book The Continuing Arms Race written by Per Larsen and published by Morgan & Claypool. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As human activities moved to the digital domain, so did all the well-known malicious behaviors including fraud, theft, and other trickery. There is no silver bullet, and each security threat calls for a specific answer. One specific threat is that applications accept malformed inputs, and in many cases it is possible to craft inputs that let an intruder take full control over the target computer system. The nature of systems programming languages lies at the heart of the problem. Rather than rewriting decades of well-tested functionality, this book examines ways to live with the (programming) sins of the past while shoring up security in the most efficient manner possible. We explore a range of different options, each making significant progress towards securing legacy programs from malicious inputs. The solutions explored include enforcement-type defenses, which excludes certain program executions because they never arise during normal operation. Another strand explores the idea of presenting adversaries with a moving target that unpredictably changes its attack surface thanks to randomization. We also cover tandem execution ideas where the compromise of one executing clone causes it to diverge from another thus revealing adversarial activities. The main purpose of this book is to provide readers with some of the most influential works on run-time exploits and defenses. We hope that the material in this book will inspire readers and generate new ideas and paradigms.

Download or read book Formal Foundations of Reuse and Domain Engineering written by Stephen H. Edwards and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-09-19 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICSR is the premier international conference in the ?eld of software reuse. The main goal of ICSR is to present the advances and improvements within the software reuse domain, as well as to promote interaction between researchers and practitioners. The 11th International Conference on Software Reuse (ICSR 2009) was held during September 27–30, 2009 in Falls Church, VA, USA. 2009 was the year that ICSR went back to its roots. The theme was “Formal Foundations of Reuse and Domain Engineering.” We explored the theory and formal foundations that underlie current reuse and domain engineering practice and looked at current advancements to get an idea of where the ?eld of reuse was headed. Manyof the papers in these proceedings directly re?ect that theme. The following workshops were held in conjunction with ICSR 2009: – Second Workshop on Knowledge Reuse (KREUSE 2009) – RESOLVE 2009: Software Veri?cation – the Cornerstone of Reuse – First International Workshop on Software Ecosystems – International Workshop on Software Reuse and Safety (RESAFE 2009) Aside from these workshops and the papers found here, the conference also included ?ve tutorials, eight tool demos, and a doctoral symposium.
