Purpose of this Standards Guide</span></h2> <p>This standards guide is designed for software producers, as well as producers of systems with embedded software. The purpose of this guide is to help informatics practitioners ensure that developed and deployed systems and software have the following characteristics:</p> <ul> <li>They can be and are verified and validated.</li> <li>They meet the purpose for which they are intended.</li> <li>They are robust, reliable, and resilient enough to consistently perform to their intended use.</li> </ul> <p>IEEE system and software engineering standards are as critical to industry as they have been to space exploration. This guide introduces you to the core subset of the Software and Systems Engineering Standards Committee (S2ESC) portfolio of standards.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Value_of_System_and_Software_Standards_to_Industry"><span class="mw-headline-number">1.1</span> Value of System and Software Standards to Industry</span></h3> <p>The aggressive transition to technology-based information is successful only if software and software-intensive systems鈥攚hich encompass myriad products and processes in complex ways鈥攕eamlessly collect, aggregate, share, analyze, and present dynamic information in a timely manner.</p> <p>For example, the anticipated human and economic benefits from the present rapid transition to health information technologies demand that software and systems developers of medical devices, digital medical records, and administrative, financial, and regulatory systems (e.g., public health, service/healthcare providers, and payers) design, develop, and deliver interoperable products, processes, and services that are safe, secure, reliable, and robust. </p> <p>The application of IEEE standards helps software producers by <i>simplifying product development processes</i>, <i>avoiding the pitfalls that have overcome many software projects</i>, and thus <i>reduces non-value-adding efforts and costs</i>. Adoption and implementation of the core software and systems engineering standards across companies that produce or tailor information systems and devices <i>increases their development organization's ability to deliver robust software in shorter time frames.</i> Even more important, the consistent use of these IEEE standards lowers the risks of delivering faulty products.</p> <p>Standards for software and systems engineering encompasses the full software and systems lifecycles, from concept and development to delivery and maintenance, and even the reuse of software components. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Standards_Essential_to_Informatics_Technology_Producers"><span class="mw-headline-number">1.2</span> Standards Essential to Informatics Technology Producers</span></h3> <p>Ensuring that delivered software meets its purpose and consistently performs to its intended use is vital to effective information delivery. As fundamental building blocks for international systems and software development, IEEE software and systems engineering standards helps producers ensure interconnectivity, interoperability, and verification of new informatics products and systems enabling the rapid implementation and trusted use of medical technologies.</p> <p>The essential set <a href="#One">[1]</a> of IEEE standards that are key to the development and delivery of robust software and systems are listed in the table below.</p> <table cellpadding="5" border="1"> <tr valign="top"><th width="20%" style="background-color: #58ACFA"><font color="white">Number</font></th> <th width="20%" style="background-color: #58ACFA;"><font color="white">Official Designation</font></th> <th style="background-color: #58ACFA;"><font color="white">Name</font></th></tr> <tr valign="top"><td>730</td><td>IEEE Std 730</td> <td>IEEE Standard for Software Quality Assurance Plans</td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td>828</td> <td>IEEE Std 828</td> <td>IEEE Standard for Software Configuration Management</td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td>830</td> <td>IEEE Std 830</td> <td>IEEE Recommended Practice for Software Requirements Specifications.

It meets the IEEE/EIA 12207.1 requirements for such plans.</p> <p>The SQA plan defines the means to ensure that software developed for a specific product satisfies user requirements and is of the highest quality possible within project constraints. To do so, it must first ensure that the quality target is clearly defined and understood. It must consider management, development, and maintenance plans for the software.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_828:_Software_Configuration_Management"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.2</span> IEEE Std 828: Software Configuration Management</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> This standard explains CM, including identifying and acquiring configuration items, controlling changes, reporting the status of configuration items, as well as software builds and release engineering. It addresses what CM activities are to be done, when they are to happen in the lifecycle, and what planning and resources are required. It also describes the content areas for a CM plan. The standard supports ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207:2008 and ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288:2008 and adheres to the terminology in ISO/IEC/IEEE Std 24765 and the information item requirements of IEEE Std 15939.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1012:_System_and_Software_Verification_and_Validation"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.3</span> IEEE Std 1012: System and Software Verification and Validation</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> Software verification and validation (V&V) processes determine whether the development products of a given activity conform to the requirements of that activity and whether the software satisfies its intended use and user needs. Software V&V lifecycle process requirements are specified for different software integrity levels. The scope of V&V processes encompasses software-based systems, computer software, hardware, and interfaces. This standard applies to software being developed, maintained, or reused (legacy, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), non-developmental items). The term software also includes firmware, microcode, and documentation. Software V&V processes include analysis, evaluation, review, inspection, assessment, and testing of software products.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1016:_Software_Design_Descriptions"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.4</span> IEEE Std 1016: Software Design Descriptions</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> The necessary information content and recommendations for an organization for software design descriptions (SDDs) are described. An SDD is a representation of a software system that is used as a medium for communicating software design information. This recommended practice is applicable to paper documents, automated databases, design description languages, and other means of description.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1028:_Software_Reviews_and_Audits"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.5</span> IEEE Std 1028: Software Reviews and Audits</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> Five types of software reviews and audits, together with procedures required for the execution of each type, are defined in this standard. This standard is concerned only with the reviews and audits; procedures for determining the necessity of a review or audit are not defined, and the disposition of the results of the review or audit is not specified. Types included are management reviews, technical reviews, inspections, walk-throughs, and audits. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1044:_Classification_for_Software_Anomalies"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.6</span> IEEE Std 1044: Classification for Software Anomalies</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> A uniform approach to the classification of anomalies found in software and its documentation is provided. The processing of anomalies discovered during any software lifecycle phase are described, and comprehensive lists of software anomaly classifications and related data items that are helpful to identify and track anomalies are provided. This standard is not intended to define procedural or format requirements for using the classification scheme. It identifies some classification measures but does not attempt to define all the data supporting the analysis of an anomaly.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1058.2FISO.2FIEC.2FIEEE_16326:_Software_Project_Management"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.7</span> IEEE Std 1058/ISO/IEC/IEEE 16326: Software Project Management</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> This international standard specifies the required content of the project management plan (PMP). It also quotes the extracted purpose and outcome statements from the project processes of ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008) and ISO/IEC 15288:2008 (IEEE Std 15288-2008), and adds detailed guidance for managing projects that use these processes for software products and software-intensive systems.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1062:_Software_Acquisition"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.8</span> IEEE Std 1062: Software Acquisition</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> This standard provides a set of useful quality practices for use during one or more steps in a software acquisition process. This recommended practice can be applied to software that runs on any computer system regardless of the size, complexity, or criticality of the software, but is more suited for use on modified-off-the-shelf software and fully developed software.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_1074:_Developing_a_Software_Project_Life-cycle_Process_.5BInactive.5D"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.9</span> IEEE Std 1074: Developing a Software Project Life-cycle Process [Inactive]</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> This standard provides a process for creating a software project lifecycle process (SPLCP). It is primarily directed at the process architect for a given software project. IEEE Std 1074 is unique in that it specifies, for any activity, what inputs are needed from previous activities, so that activities can be chained together. It also provides activities for ensuring that security is built in throughout the software lifecycle.</p> <p>This standard requires selection of a user's software project lifecycle model (SPLCM) based on the organization's mission, vision, goals, and resources. It does not impose, define, or imply a particular software lifecycle model or methodology. </p> <p>This standard may also be used to develop organizational processes to support software development and maintenance or to develop special, single-function processes within a project.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_12207:_Systems_and_Software_Engineering.E2.80.94Software_Life-cycle_Processes"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.10</span> IEEE Std 12207: Systems and Software Engineering鈥擲oftware Life-cycle Processes</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> This international standard establishes a common framework for software lifecycle processes, with well-defined terminology, that can be referenced by the software industry. It applies to the acquisition of systems and software products and services, to the supply, development, operation, maintenance, and disposal of software products and the software portion of a system, whether performed internally or externally to an organization. Those aspects of system definition needed to provide the context for software products and services are included. Software includes the software portion of firmware. This revision integrates ISO/IEC 12207 with its two amendments and was coordinated with the parallel revision of ISO/IEC 15288 (system lifecycle processes) to align structure, terms, and corresponding organizational and project processes. This standard may be used stand alone or jointly with ISO/IEC 15288, and supplies a process reference model that supports process capability assessment in accordance with ISO/IEC 15504-2 (process assessment). </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="IEEE_Std_14764:_Standard_for_Software_Engineering.E2.80.94Software_Lifecycle_Processes.E2.80.94Maintenance"><span class="mw-headline-number">2.11</span> IEEE Std 14764: Standard for Software Engineering鈥擲oftware Lifecycle Processes鈥擬aintenance</span></h3> <p><b>Abstract:</b> The process for managing and executing software maintenance activities is described.</p> <p>IEEE Std 14764 describes in greater detail the management of the maintenance process described in IEEE Std 12207, including amendments. It also establishes definitions for the various types of maintenance. IEEE Std 14764 provides guidance that applies to planning, execution and control, review and evaluation, and closure of the maintenance process. The scope includes maintenance for multiple software products with the same maintenance resources.</p> <p>IEEE Std 14764 provides guidance for the maintenance of software. The basis for the maintenance process and its activities comes from the definitions of IEEE Std 12207.
