Improved Allocation and Reallocation Approaches for Software Trustworthiness Based on Mathematical Programming

Abstract

Software trustworthiness allocation and reallocation are the symmetry of software trustworthiness measure. They can provide the optimization scheme for trustworthiness development and improvement, according to the requirements. The existing allocation and reallocation models do not consider the absolute majority of software trustworthiness classification; therefore, they cannot be very accurate in the allocation and reallocation of software trustworthiness. In this paper, improved allocation and reallocation models are constructed, which can resolve the above problem, and their polynomial solving algorithms are designed. At the same time, a demonstration application of the improved models and algorithms is given, and the trustworthiness enhancement specification of spacecraft software, based on factory reports, is established, including trustworthiness development specification and trustworthiness improvement specification. This enhancement specification provides a scientific and reasonable theory and method for the delivery acceptance of spacecraft software, from qualitative to quantitative grading acceptance, and furnishes a standard guarantee for the trustworthy development and improvement of such software.
