Today’s Continuous Integration (CI) and Build Pipelines can only partially ensure automated checks of non-functional requirements and properties. This means that a set of manual tests, which may be extensive, needs to be performed before each release. However, some of these non-functional tests can be automated using suitable tools and Read more…
In XANDAR project, a new toolchain is being developed that is able to handle embedded applications with diverse safety and security requirements. Considering the high complexity of such systems, the heterogeneity of the involved components (and their tolerance in errors), and the use of mechanisms that increase the trust to Read more…
At the end of March 2023, the XANDAR consortium came together for its third major face-to-face meeting. This three-day event took place at a strategically important time in the course of the project: with the first experimental toolchain evaluation phase just completed, the use case providers were able to give insightful Read more…
