Software verification and validation(Position Statement)
Marilyn S. Fujii · 1978
Logicon was an original advocate of software verification and validation (V&V). We began performing V&V for the Air Force when the control of critical functions in space and missile applications moved from hardware into software. Since these early beginnings, V&V has evolved at Logicon to embrace several complementary techniques for software evaluation. Current V&V methods rigorously test and analyze the software to ensure that it performs all intended functions and that it does not cause unintended functions to occur.
