Procedure for Analyzing the Software and Operational Impact of Software/Hardware Interface Anomalies

摘要

Software Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis Special Assessment Procedure (FMASAP:1-1) is one of the 16 Procedures that make up the SED Software Engineering Evaluation System (SEES). The purpose of FMASAP is to determine: (1) Potential system failures and criticality. (2) Root causes for critical hardware and interface failures. (3) Software resilience to hardware interface anomalies. (4) Operational impacts of software responses to hardware failures. When System Modes exist, perform the FMASAP procedures as a separate set of analyses (i.e., each System mode requires a unique set of RRLF and SFMECAF forms). This brief discusses use of FMASAP.
