Cleanroom Engineering Handbook. Volume 6. Certification Team Practices

This is one of a series of six engineering handbooks prepared for and used by the engineering staff at Picatinny Arsenal for the STARS technology transfer demonstration. The handbooks define the engineering process and algorithms that will be used in Cleanroom projects. They are designed to provide support to trained engineers using Cleanroom Engineering, not to substitute for training. The Cleanroom process model for software system development projects is presented in Volume 1 - Cleanroom Process Overview - of this series of Cleanroom Process Manuals. This handbook, Volume 6, describes the activities of Cleanroom software certification for each incrementaccumulation of project development. Process P5.j.2, Preparation for Certification of Accumulation j and process P6.j, Software Certification for Accumulation j, are expanded into engineering subprocesses i.e., tasks for execution by Cleanroom- trained software engineers. These tasks result in the preparation for and performance of the certification of developed software. The reader of this volume should be familiar with the information and terms described in Volume 4 - Specification Team Practices. This handbook, Volume 6, builds on the theory involving software usage modeling which is introduced in Volume 4.
