ECSS-E-ST-40C: Space Engineering - Software
What is ECSS-E-ST-40C: Space Engineering - Software?
ECSS-E-ST-40C, the European Cooperation for Space Standardization standard for software engineering in space systems. Defines the software engineering processes across the life cycle (software-related system requirements, management, requirements and architecture, design and implementation, validation, delivery and acceptance, verification, operation, maintenance) and special requirements tailored by software criticality (categories A-D), including dependability and safety, reuse and tool qualification, with an interface to software product assurance (ECSS-Q-ST-80C). It comprises 10 controls organised across 2 domains, and applies in Europe (ECSS).
How ECSS-E-ST-40C: Space Engineering - Software maps to other frameworks
All 10 controls, each one mapped to the equivalent requirement in other standards, with the evidence that carries across and the mappings that were judged and rejected shown alongside. No account needed to look.
