What are the Top 3 Lessons Learned / Technology in the areaof certification and assessment? • Certified Integrated Systems have failed in unexpected ways • Excessive, High Initial and Incremental Costs to Develop Certified Integrated Systems • Approaches to Certification of Integrated Systems are not well understood
What are the Top 3 certification needs that have not been met? • Initial Cost & Cost of rework • Coping with complexity • Deploying a safe system • Acceptance of New Technologies / Methods • System Development • Certification
What are the Top 3 Research topics/challenges (with timelines) being/should be pursued in your domain of expertise related to certification? • 1. Alternate Approaches to Acceptance/Cert • Product Evidence Based vs Process based [EV] • Component based qual/certification [NT] • Cert. expressive interfaces in a formal manner (links to Model based design, Incremental Certification, When does composablity work and where, Models at different levels and how to validate) • Certification by Composition [MT] • Including environmental aspects / legacy components
What are the Top 3 Research topics/challenges (with timelines) being/should be pursued in your domain of expertise related to certification? • Continued: Alternate Approaches to Acceptance/Cert • Validation of new certification process [EV] Approaches need acceptance/working together with the academic, certification & industry
What are the Top 3 Research topics/challenges (with timelines) being/should be pursued in your domain of expertise related to certification? • 2. Tools • Need a methodology/tools for Certification of • COTS (with evidence) [NT] & • Open source (without development process evidence) [MT] • Includes software and Integrated Circuits. • Trusted tools with known pedigree to support qualification/certification evidence [EV] • Risk analysis needed to determine level of trust
What are the Top 3 Research topics/challenges (with timelines) being/should be pursued in your domain of expertise related to certification? • 3. Cert Criteria and Systems Analysis • Cert process framework to handle new technologies, both flexible and extensible. [MT] • Analysis methods to consider integration of Safety vs. other complex system attributes or requirements (eg. Human Factors, Security can have competing requirements) [MT]
What are the Top 3 challenges (with timelines) in the area of certification (including outside your domain of expertise?) • Security or other related system attributes that require resolution of conflicting requirements [NT] • Safety vs. Security • Unmanned Vehicle Autonomy in a certified system or sub-system [MT] • Authorities / people vs. machine
Education Needs/Topics • Incentives to motivate people to enter the domain & stay current • “Assessment of systems” as a career option • Benchmark US education capability vs. world standards (both higher education & in industry) • Shift culture such that cert is an integral part of system development • high level stuff in house • low level stuff out source • Sample systems for use by educational institutions
