[BKM11] Efficient Method Developed by Thales for Safety Evaluation of Real-to-Integer Discretization and Overflows in SIL4 Software

Chapitres de Livre : Titre du livre: "Static analysis of software : the abstract interpretation", October 2011, ISTE WILEY, pp. 273-317, (isbn: 978-1848213203)

Mots clés: Software safety, static analysis, integer programming

Résumé: This chapter introduce a method based on interval arithmetic to analyse computation risks due to integer conversions of an infinite precision specification. The work also takle the overflow and division by zero problems in arithmetic computation chains. The method was developed and applied within the context of railway command and control systems and the chapter present a case study on a speed control algorithm.

Commentaires: This book presents real examples of the formal techniques called “abstract interpretation” currently being used in various industrial fields: railway, aeronautics, space, automotive, etc. The current literature seems to only provide very general books on the formal techniques. The purpose of this book is to present students and researchers, in a single book, with the wealth of experience of people who are intrinsically involved in the realization and evaluation of software-based safety critical systems. As the authors are people currently working within the industry, the usual problems of confidentiality, which can occur with other books, is not an issue and so makes it possible to supply new useful information (photos, architectural plans, real examples).
