Introduction IV&V has been performing ISS IV&V for the past 18 years
Software architecture and design is mature
However new releases are being developed to add new functionality and product improvements in the existing architecture.
IV&V had been generating technical reports at the end of each milestone event such as :
Technical Design Review (TDR)
Test Readiness Review (TRR)
Software Transition Readiness Review (STRR)
These reports document software assurance stating that the CSCI is ready for next stage in life cycle development.
This presentation provides a framework for an integrated software assurance approach:
To assert that CSCI is ready for on-orbit deployment
Using existing IV&V processes and analyses. Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 2<br>

Evidence Based Assurance (EBA) Implementation Approach Use ISS life cycle development model
Use life cycle development milestones as individual claims into EBA network model
Requirements development completion
Code development completion etc.
Use Biwar report as a mechanism to report evidence as it becomes available during life cycle development support activity
Maximize usage of existing evidence data from technical reports
Minimize new documentation work
Existing analyses remain same but may become deeper and more rigorous to support each claim Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 3<br>

ISS CSCI Life Cycle In normal waterfall mode, the life cycle Sequence is SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR, and FQT.
In ISS above model is used for CSCI first release.
Subsequent CSCI releases every 15 months to
Enhance functionality of existing functions
Add new mission requirements such as Visiting Vehicle support
Fix existing critical software problems
Implement code changes to avoid operator workarounds (SPNs) for code problems
In sustaining phase , each release is an incremental change to the previous release
Only changes to the review artifacts are subject to formal reviews
To cut down development time, parallel development activity for:
Requirements development
Design/Code development
FQT test development Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 4<br>

CSCI Life Cycle Reviews Test Implementation Reviews
On going, review held after a test script for an FQT test is developed and dryrun on FQT platform
IV&V verifies from test log and script that the test is implemented as per test design and test cases ran in the expected sequence and order
IV&V also verifies that test failures are captured in SCRs.
Test Readiness Review (TRR)
Held after all tests completed test implementation reviews, review issues were incorporated, and tests were dryrun on flight release.
IV&V verifies that there are no open issues on any test cleared for FQT run
Formal Qualification Test Results Review
IV&V reviews test logs to verify that tests ran as expected and test failures are properly described in referenced SCRs.
Stage Test Reviews
IV&V reviews integrated tests that verify the CSCI performance in the on-orbit CSCIs integrated environment
IV&V ensures that test procedures match test objectives and test failures are correctly reported in SCRs
Software Transition Readiness Review
IV&V evaluates open SCRs/Issues to ensure that the corresponding problem does not impact on-orbit CSCI transition to new release or immediate operation with new release
If such SCRs/Issues are found, IV&V would articulate to the Program to address the problem before the transition. Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 7<br>

Analysis Rigor Methods
Analysis methods expanded from COM methods to detailed ISS specific guidelines.
Separate PAL asset each for Requirements, Design, Code and Test.
Adverse conditions
Full list of adverse conditions captured in TR folder in ECM, next slide shows a shortened list
These conditions are evaluated as applicable to Requirements, Design, Code, and Test reviews with respect to Q2, Q3.
If an adverse condition is integrated into a requirement, then further life cycle analysis for that will be under Q1.
There will be several adverse conditions in code that will not be captured in requirements. Code will be reviewed against such adverse conditions
Very few adverse conditions for test analysis because FQT will not test behaviors not captured in requirements
Adverse conditions not captured in requirements will be topics for Independent Analysis(IA). Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 11<br>

Evidence
List of RCSs developed, and reviewed by IV&V and others
Biwar report confirming that Review issues were incorporated into the requirements and requirements development is completed
IV&V RCS review status reported in Biwar
RCS status reported at TDR
(Sub-Claim) Requirement evaluation per IV&V 3 Questions
Argument
Each RCS is reviewed against the corresponding SCR to ensure that the requirement adequately captures the SCR intent
Review issues were submitted and dispositioned with reviewer’s concurrence
Requirements development is completed by TDR except for post-TDR SCR content changes where the requirements development is completed before their design/code implementation. Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 14<br>

Requirements Analysis Sub-claim (1.2.1) Claim
The requirements adequately capture what the system is supposed to do, what it is not supposed to do and how the system should behave under adverse conditions for defined conditions
Evidence
List of RCSs and the SCRs driving changes to requirements
List of accepted issues submitted by IV&V
Usage of PAL asset “ ISS Requirements Review and Analysis Guidelines” for analyzing the requirements
Argument
IV&V analyst is instructed to use the guidelines in the PAL asset for requirements analysis.
Each requirement is analyzed to match the concept in the SCR that drives the new requirement or change to the existing requirement.
Issues were submitted to the developer where the requirement is deficient from IV&V three questions perspective.
The analysis will cover all aspects for IV&V Q1 and practical situations for IV&V Q2 and Q3.
Supplemental information
Adverse conditions to be evaluated for are listed in ISS Technical Reference folder. The PAL asset contains specific guidelines designed for ISS development context. These guidelines provide instructions on how to verify for IV&V Q1, Q2, and Q3.
Caveats
For IV&V Q2, it is not possible to specify what the software is not supposed to do (negative specifications) for all cases and hence this specification is limited. During requirements analysis, IV&V will ensure that negative specifications are provided where practical.
For IV&V Q3, it is not possible to specify software actions for all possible adverse conditions However, certain adverse conditions (such as communication error, stale data, data exceeding a threshold, software timeout etc. can be integrated into requirement specifications .

If any of those SCRs affect safety critical on-orbit operation, IV&V will request the SCSRP board to evaluate those SCRs prior to on-orbit software transition to determine if any patches or PPLs need to be developed.
IV&V evaluates any open issues from the CSCI reviews or SCRs targeted for fix in the current release to determine their impact on on-orbit transition and immediate software.
IV&V reviews SPNs developed for the release to make sure that operational workaround is documented Sarma Susarla IV&V Workshop 9/10/2013 22<br>
All software issues that affect on-orbit transition of the new release have been fixed

Transition readiness reporting Report this after the CSCI readiness is evaluated for on-orbit transition (1.8)
IV&V completed on-orbit transition readiness review and no exceptions have been uncovered. IV&V evaluated <tbd1> undispositoned SCRs on the current and previous releases and <tbd2> dispositioned but targeted for fix in a future CSCI release. IV&V analyzed these SCRs and determined that they do not impact the software operation for successful on-orbit transition from the previous release and immediate on-orbit operation with the new release. All work targeted for fix on this release from SCRs and milestone review issues is completed. IV&V verified that all SPNs, numbering <tbd>, triggered by the new release have been developed. IV&V’s analysis concludes that the CSCI is ready for on-orbit transition.
