Abstract:
Computing is becoming increasingly critical as far as embedded applications are concerned. Depending on the software, its malfunction may have consequences varying from serious financial problems to the loss of human lives. In view of this, this paper presents a systematic review that investigates the evolution of the work-related activity of embedded software critical tests in order to assess the level of compliance of the works found in relation to the DO-178B standard (Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification). The ultimate goal of this research is the composition of existing works to define a test process that incorporates the quality and DO-178B requirements considering the different levels of criticality.
