Validation

  • Requirements Validation is critical to successful
    system product development and implementation.
    Requirements are validated when it is certain
    that the subject set of requirements describes
    the input requirements and objectives such that
    the resulting system products can satisfy the
    requirements and objectives.
  • The Requirements Validation Process helps ensure
    that the requirements are necessary and
    sufficient for creating design solutions
    appropriate to meeting the exit criteria of the
    applicable engineering life cycle phase and of
    the enterprise-based life cycle phase in which
    the engineering or reengineering efforts occur.

What the standards say ()

  • Main standards
  • IEEE P1220
  • EIA 632
  • DoD 2167A
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

20
Correctness and completeness

  • A correct, complete set of requirements is one
    that correctly and completely states the desires
    and needs of the sponsor.
  • If the requirements are incorrect, the software
    may meet the requirements as stated, but will not
    do what the sponsor wants it to do.
  • If the requirements are incomplete, the software
    may do only part of what the sponsor hoped it
    would do.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

21
Consistent

  • Consistency is obtained if the requirements do
    not contradict each other.
  • Inconsistency results when one requirement
    contradicts another.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

22
Unambiguous

  • If a requirement is subject to more than one
    interpretation, it is ambiguous.
  • Requirements should be stated simply and
    completely so that they are unambiguous.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

23
Functional

  • Requirements should state what the sponsor
    desires the functions and activities to be
    performed by the system.
  • They should not state how the problem is to be
    solved or what techniques are to be used.
  • Such decisions should be left to the system
    designers.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

24
Verifiable

  • The requirements must be verifiable in two ways
    do the requirements satisfy the sponsor’s needs
    ?
  • does the system satisfy the requirements?
  • In the first case, the requirements must be
    compared to the sponsor’s desires and needs. Do
    the requirements correctly and completely specify
    the sponsor’s desires and needs?
  • In the second case, once the system has been
    developed, it must be compared to the
    requirements. Does the system meet the
    requirements as they are stated?
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

25
Traceability

  • Traceable and easily changed.
  • The requirements should be organized and written
    in a segmented, top down manner that allows for
    easy use (traceability) and easy modification.
  • A numbering system is useful to label the
    paragraphs and parts of the manual for cross
    referencing, indexing, and easy modification

    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

27
Inspection

  • Most common simple et pragmatic method and can be
  • Manual Human sense principal instrument
  • Automatic (CAI tool) for measurable issues
  • Most evident errors/faults can be detected

    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

28
Inspection (example)

  • This presentation shows how to carry out a
    one-half hour inspection with senior managers.
    The purpose is to show to make managers aware
    that they play a key-role in creating project
    delays by approving poor quality of requirements
    documents.
  • The inspection results shown in this real-life
    example successfully predicted a project delay of
    2 calendar years.
  • Poor quality marketing requirements documents
    prove time and again to be a good predictor of
    project delays.
  • The clue is that requirements documents with a
    high defect density are an indicator of a truly
    unprofessional engineering culture.

29
Inspection (example)
Rules
Introduce the following three rules for
inspecting a requirements document

  • Three Rules for Requirements
  • 1. Unambiguous to intended Readership
  • 2. Clear enough to test.
  • 3. No Design (how to) mixed in
  • with Requirements (how well)
  • MARK Design as D
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

30
Inspection (example)
Defect
Explain the definition of a Defect

  • A Defect is a violation of a Rule
  • Note If there are 10 ambiguous terms in a single
    requirement then there are 10 defects!
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

31
Inspection (example)
Severity

  • Explain
  • the definition of Major Defect
  • the checkers must focus on finding Major Defects
  • Major a defect severity where there is potential
    of
  • high (x lost engineering hours) loss
  • later downstream (test, field).
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

32
Inspection (example)
Exit?
Agree with the management team on a numeric exit
condition

  • Exit Conditions (Requirements can go to Design,
    Test etc with little risk)
  • Maximum 1 Major Defect/ (Logical) Page
  • Logical Page 300 Non commentary words.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

33
Inspection (example)

  • The Job
  • You have up to 30 minutes for checking One
    requirements Logical page from an 82 pages
    document
  • Count all Rule Violations Defects
  • Classify Major and minor
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

34
Inspection (example)

  • Page 81 120 majors/p
  • Page 82 180 Majors/p
  • Average 150 Majors/page x 82 page 12,300
    Majors in the document.
  • —————–
  • If a Major has 1/3 chance of causing loss
  • And each loss is avg 10 hours then total project
    Rework cost is about 41,000 hours loss.
  • (This project was over a year late)
  • 1 year 2,000 hour 10 people

Letter to Your Boss

  • Boss!
  • We have 2 options for the 82 page Requirements
    document.
  • Our sample shows that we have 180 Majors/Page.
  • We can spend 180 hours per page removing them
    with Inspection
  • We can rewrite the pages at a cost of 10hours
    each.
  • Or we can suffer 30 of these as bugs and fault,
    at an average removal cost of about 10 hours each
    (test and field debugging and re-testing), 1/3 of
    180 x 10 600 hours per page if we do not
    rewrite (10 hours /Page) or remove before test
    (180 hours/Pages).
  • We suggest rewrite (changing something to avoid
    defect injection rate). But you have said you are
    against this. So we have to tell you that your
    option will delay our project by 600 hours x 82
    49,200 hours.
  • Our project has 10 people on it, and they can do
    about 2,000 hours per year. So that is 20,000
    work hours per year for our team. The approximate
    delay for your decision not to rewrite is this
    about 2.5 years worse Time To Market.
  • We will of course do what you say, but we wanted
    to be sure that you understood what your boss
    will blame you for later.
  • Your Loyal Servant, Tom

37
Model Checking

  • Model checking is a method for formally verifying
    finite-state concurrent systems
  • Specifications about the system are expressed as
    temporal logic formulas, and efficient symbolic
    algorithms are used to traverse the model defined
    by the system and check if the specification
    holds or not
  • Extremely large state-spaces can often be
    traversed in minutes
  • The technique has been applied to several complex
    industrial systems

Model Checking and Formality

  • A mathematical model is an abstract
    representation of a system employing mathematical
    entities and concepts
  • Model should be expressive enough to capture the
    essential characteristics of the system being
    modeled
  • If the model is intended for deductive reasoning
    about the underlying system, it should provide
    sufficient analytic power for this purpose

  • Model is more concise and precise than natural
    language, pseudo-code, and diagrammatic
    representations
  • Model can be used to calculate and predict system
    behavior

    reasoning — proving properties, deriving new
    behaviors, etc.

Formality-Properties

  • Consistent — means it is not possible to derive
    a statement and its negation within the system
  • Complete — means every true statement within the
    system is provable
  • Decidable — means there is an effective
    algorithm (e.g. computer program) for determining
    whether any statement formed within the system is
    true
  • A system must be consistent to be useable in
    formal methods (or any other area). While
    decidability and completeness would be nice,
    these can not be achieved in most interesting
    formal systems. However, this does not prevent
    the effective use of these systems.

Formality

  • A sequent is written G – D, which means /\ G
    implies \/ D, where G is a (possibly empty) list
    of formulas A1, , An and D is a (possibly
    empty) list of formulas B1, , Bn
  • the formulas in G are called the antecedents
  • the formulas in D are called the succedents or
    consequents
  • To restate, G – D means
  • A1 /\ /\ An implies B1 \/ \/ Bn
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

49
Formality

  • A sequent calculus proof is a tree of sequents
    whose root is a sequent of the form – T where T
    is the formula to be proved and the antecedent is
    empty
  • The proof tree is then generated by applying
    inference rules of the form
  • G1 – D1 Gn – Dn
  • G – D
  • Intuitively, this rule replaces a leaf node in
    the proof tree of form G – D with the n new
    leaves specified in the rule. If n is zero, that
    branch of the proof tree terminates.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

50
Formality

  • The Propositional Axiom (Prop_Axiom) is one of
    the rules of inference in the sequent calculus.
    It has the following form form
  • (G, A) – (A, D)
  • Intuitively, this rule indicates that a proof
    branch is complete when the sequent above is
    derived. Note that the consequent means the
    following
  • G /\ A implies A \/ D
  • which is obviously true.

Prop_Axiom

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

51
Formality

  • The Rule for Conjunction on the Right (And_Right)
    is another of the rules of inference in the
    sequent calculus. It has the following form
  • G – A, D G – B, D
  • G – (A /\ B, D)
  • This rule is typical of many sequent calculus
    inference rules which divide, but simplify, a
    branch of the proof tree. Note that the
    consequent is replaced by two simpler formulas
    which will be easier for a mechanized theorem
    prover to deal with.
  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

52
Formality

  • The Rule for Conjunction on the Left (And_Left)
    is another of the rules of inference in the
    sequent calculus. It has the following simple
    (non-branching) form
  • A, B, G – D
  • (A /\ B, G) – D
  • This rule is typical of several sequent calculus
    inference rules which simply restate the
    obvious, thereby providing a form easier for a
    mechanized theorem prover to deal with.

And_Left

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

53
Formality

  • The Rule for Implication on the Left
    (Implies_Left) is another of the rules of
    inference in the sequent calculus. It has the
    following form
  • G – A, D B, G – D
  • (A gt B, G) – D
  • Similar to the And_Right rule, this rule again
    splits the proof into two cases, each of which
    will be easier for the mechanical prover to deal
    with.

Implies_Left

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’

54
Formality

  • The Rule for Implication on the Right
    (Implies_Right) is another of the rules of
    inference in the sequent calculus. It has the
    following form
  • G, A – B, D
  • G – (A gt B, D)
  • This rule does not branch, but provides a form
    easier for a mechanized theorem prover to deal
    with.

Implies_Right

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

55
Formality

  • The following example proof in the sequent
    calculus (taken from NASA Guidebook
    NASA-GB-001-97, Release 1.0, pp. 97-101) will use
    only the five sequent calculus inference rules we
    define earlier — Prop_Axiom, And_Left,
    And_Right, Implies_Left, and Implies_Right.
  • The theorem (assumed to be named Theorem 1) to
    be proved is the following

Theorem 1 (P gt (Q gt R)) gt ((P /\
Q) gt R)

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

56
Formality
Theorem 1 (P gt (Q gt R)) gt ((P /\
Q) gt R)
We begin the proof by forming the requisite
sequent
Antecedents none Consequents Formula 1 (P
gt (Q gt R)) gt ((P /\ Q) gt R)

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

57
Formality
As our first step we apply the rule
Implies_Right. This rule will decompose the
entire formula. Remember there is an implied
implies in the sequent. In other words this
sequent could be written – (P gt (Q gt R)) gt
((P /\ Q) gt R). Hence, the implies we apply
the rule to is the outside implies on the right
of the sequent
Antecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gt R)
Consequents Formula 1 (P /\ Q) gt R

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

58
Formality
A second application of the rule Implies_Right
will decompose the formula below the line in a
similar way. Remember that rules applying to the
left part of the sequent work on formulas above
the bar rules applying to the right part of
the sequent work below the bar.
Antecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gt
R) Formula 2 P /\ Q Consequents Formula 1

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

59
Formality
We next apply the rule And_Left — this rule will
modify (rewrite) Formula 2 above the line.
Remember that all formulas above the line are
connected by ANDs formulas below the line are
connected by ORs.
Antecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gt
R) Formula 2 P Formula 3
Q Consequents Formula 1 R

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

60
Formality
We next apply the rule Implies_Left — this rule
will modify Formula 1 above the line. Remember
that Implies_Left splits the proof tree into two
branches. We show and deal with Case 1 first,
then move to Case 2 later.
Case 1 Antecedents Formula 1 Q gt
R Formula 2 P Formula 3 Q Consequents Fo

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

61
Formality
To modify Formula 1 above the line, we next apply
the rule Implies_Left again. Again this splits
the proof tree into two branches. We show and
deal with Case 1.1 first, then move to Case 1.2
later.
Case 1.1 Antecedents Formula 1 R Formula
2 P Formula 3 Q Consequents Formula 1 R
Case 1.1 will now yield to an application of
Prop_Axiom

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

62
Formality
As noted, an application of Prop_Axiom (Step 5)
completes Case 1.1. We now move to Case 1.2.
This is the second case resulting from the
application of Implies_Left on the Case 1
sequent. Another application of Prop_Axiom (Step
6) completes Case 1.2 (and in turn Case 1 itself).
Case 1.2 Antecedents Formula 1 P Formula
2 Q Consequents Formula 1 Q Formula 2 R
Case 1.2 will also yield to an application of
Prop_Axiom

  • ‘Validation Are we building the right product’
    ‘Verification Are we building the product right’

63
Formality
Having completed the proof for Case 1, we now
move to Case 2. Recall that this is the second
case resulting from our first application of
Implies_Left. Another application of Prop_Axiom
(Step 7) completes Case 2 (and in turn the entire
proof).
Case 2 Antecedents Formula 1 P Formula 2

Case 2 will also yield to an application of

This rule will decompose theentire formula. Remember there is an impliedimplies in the sequent. In other words thissequent could be written – (P gt (Q gt R)) gt((P /\ Q) gt R). Hence, the implies we applythe rule to is the outside implies on the rightof the sequentAntecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gt R)Consequents Formula 1 (P /\ Q) gt RFormalityA second application of the rule Implies_Rightwill decompose the formula below the line in asimilar way. Remember that rules applying to theleft part of the sequent work on formulas abovethe bar rules applying to the right part ofthe sequent work below the bar.Antecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gtR) Formula 2 P /\ Q Consequents Formula 1FormalityWe next apply the rule And_Left — this rule willmodify (rewrite) Formula 2 above the line.Remember that all formulas above the line areconnected by ANDs formulas below the line areconnected by ORs.Antecedents Formula 1 P gt (Q gtR) Formula 2 P Formula 3Q Consequents Formula 1 RFormalityWe next apply the rule Implies_Left — this rulewill modify Formula 1 above the line. Rememberthat Implies_Left splits the proof tree into twobranches. We show and deal with Case 1 first,then move to Case 2 later.Case 1 Antecedents Formula 1 Q gtR Formula 2 P Formula 3 Q Consequents Formula 1 RFormalityTo modify Formula 1 above the line, we next applythe rule Implies_Left again. Again this splitsthe proof tree into two branches. We show anddeal with Case 1.1 first, then move to Case 1.2later.Case 1.1 Antecedents Formula 1 R Formula2 P Formula 3 Q Consequents Formula 1 RCase 1.1 will now yield to an application ofProp_AxiomFormalityAs noted, an application of Prop_Axiom (Step 5)completes Case 1.1. We now move to Case 1.2.This is the second case resulting from theapplication of Implies_Left on the Case 1sequent. Another application of Prop_Axiom (Step6) completes Case 1.2 (and in turn Case 1 itself).Case 1.2 Antecedents Formula 1 P Formula2 Q Consequents Formula 1 Q Formula 2 RCase 1.2 will also yield to an application ofProp_AxiomFormalityHaving completed the proof for Case 1, we nowmove to Case 2. Recall that this is the secondcase resulting from our first application ofImplies_Left. Another application of Prop_Axiom(Step 7) completes Case 2 (and in turn the entireproof).Case 2 Antecedents Formula 1 P Formula 2Q Consequents Formula 1 P Formula 2 RCase 2 will also yield to an application ofProp_AxiomPrototypingThe Two Vs and techniquesVV in EIA 632VV in EIA 632ConclusionsNext lectureVerification and ValidationStandards and Case Studies
