These events were a big success and attracted more than 450 attendees! I would like to thank one more time the CARA who did a very good job at organizing these.

The presentations were of very high quality and their diversity pleased practionners as well as managers and students. All the slides are accessible on the CARA’s website (French and English).

I gave a talk in Grenoble and Valence about the infrastructure and processes we put in place at AdaCore to build and test on a daily basis all our compilation chains and accompanying technology in a Lean fashion.

I also presented the “qualification machine” we have built based on open source technology to ease the DO-178B tool qualification process by adopting an agile philosophy.

However, current technology trends in software code development are requiring new verification and certification approaches, so industry and government experts are building a new certification called DO-178C to address these concerns.” To read the full article, please click here.]]> http://www.open-do.org/2009/10/09/do-178c-explained/feed/ 0
