As software alone – which can be considered as pure information – cannot cause any harm by itself, the term software safety is sometimes dismissed and replaced by “software system safety” (e.g. the Joint Software Systems Safety Engineering Handbook [8] and MIL-STD-882E [9] use this terminology).
For military aerospace and defense systems MIL-STD-882E addresses functional hazard analyses (FHA) and determining which functions implemented in hardware and software are safety significant. The Functional safety focus is on ensuring safety critical functions and functional threads in the system, subsystem and software are analyzed and ...
MIL-STD-967 covers the content and format for defense handbooks. MIL-SPEC: Defense Specification: A document that describes the essential technical requirements for military-unique materiel or substantially modified commercial items. MIL-STD-961 covers the content and format for defense specifications. MIL-STD: Defense Standard
DO-178C, Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification is the primary document by which the certification authorities such as FAA, EASA and Transport Canada approve all commercial software-based aerospace systems.
The U.S. Department of Defense Standard Practice for System Safety (MIL–STD–882) places the highest priority on elimination of hazards through design selection. [ 21 ] One of the most common fail-safe systems is the overflow tube in baths and kitchen sinks.
EIA-649 was adopted for use by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) in February 1999, [3] [13] [14] replacing Mil-Std-973. [15] Even though the US DoD has 649 called out as a guidance document in their contracts, EIA-649 is currently used in both commercial and governmental environments since the authors of EIA-649 tried not to express ...
The MIL-STD-1521 was cancelled in 1995 without replacement for the SDR material. [2] Since that time, the DoD 5000 system has been created which uses technical reviews as described in Chapter 4 of the Defense Acquisition Guide discussions on their role [ 3 ] or shown in the diagram of the Integrated Defense Acquisition, Technology and Logistics ...
The MIL-STD-188 standards were created to "address telecommunication design parameters based on proven technologies." [2] To ensure interoperability, DISA made these standards mandatory for use in all new DoD systems and equipment, or major upgrades.
