Risk Management in the Trustworthy Software Process: A Novel Risk and Trustworthiness Measurement Model Framework

The growing demands for the trustworthiness of software pose an unprecedented challenge to software industry. An integrated trustworthy software process model is proposed to help improve software process risk management towards trustworthy software, which contains risk management, development process management and deliverables monitoring. Furthermore, based on this process model, a model framework including process risk metrics and trustworthiness metrics is presented. Great efforts have been put to the software trustworthiness measurement model. Simulation cases are then analyzed by this model framework, and some results about process risk and trustworthiness are discussed.
