PRQA Newsletter - Q2 2013

Greetings!    

 

Welcome to the quarterly PRQA Newsletter, this is our 7th edition and we hope that the material we're sharing is pertinent and useful.

Next Webinar: The Many Faces of Static Analysis for C/C++ Programming

 

Static Analysis is an umbrella term which in reality encompasses a number of different approaches. Each underlying technology brings with it a different set of strengths and limitations. The output of language based analysis which focuses on each line of code is fundamentally different from the output from a dataflow simulation, or the Static Analysis which delivers code complexity metrics or visualizations of architecture. 

 

Attend this webinar to learn more about:

  • Different types of Static Analysis
  • Underlying technologies beneath the various classes of Static Analysis
  • Effective deployment of Static Analysis tools within the development process

Customer success stories 

 

Haldex, leader in braking and suspension systems, has been using QA�C and MISRA C for more than a decade to develop high quality safety-critical embedded software. Haldex has also used QA�C++ to develop their award-winning fleet management application, detecting 25% more defects during the early development cycle and their return on investment has been less than 18 months, read the full story...

 

Protean Electric is an award-winning technology company that has developed an in-wheel electric drive system for hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric light-duty vehicles. This leading clean technology automotive manufacturer is looking to achieve ISO 26262 certification to ASIL Level D (which has the most safety critical processes and the strictest testing regulations) with QA�C and MISRA C Compliance Module, read more...

Software Metrics - Friend or Foe?

 

Metrics are used in numerous applications such as planning and performance optimization and especially as a measure of software quality. However, there is much discussion over which, if any, metrics are actually of value. In this presentation delivered at the Embedded World Conference, Jill Britton, our Technical Support Manager will look at some of the debate concerning the necessity of software metrics and how their use can improve software quality.
