S/W failure probability on demand) Table 1. Existing safety-critical S/W reliability quantification methods QSRMs Description Related Works Software Reliability Growth Model (SRGM) Test-based method Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) Other Methods Time-based methods that use test data to estimate software failure rates employ statistical methods for the results of software testing, and possibly for operational data aggregates disparate software information (e.g. software failure data, software lifecycle activities) (1) Correlation approach; (2) Metrics-based method; (3) Context-based software risk model; etc. [Musa, 1987] [Lyu, 1996] [Miller et al., 1992] [May, 1995] [Gran, 2002] [Eom, 2009] [Neufelder, 2002] [Smidts and Li, 2004] [ASCA 2007] 2/

6 Previous BBN Models for Software Reliability Quantification Previous BBN models were developed which are specific to a particular safety software development environment. 2) LLNL: Assessment of Design Document of SW for a NPP 1) Halden project: Reliability assessment and acceptance of safety-critical software 3) KAERI: Assessment of Requirement Spec. of RPS Software Therefore, a BBN model that can be applied to (1) a general NPP safety-related software which follows standard SDLC, (2) and further to a specific safety software of NPP protection system needs to be developed. 5/
7 NPP Safety Software Development Life Cycle NPP safety software is typically designed based on IEEE Std endorsed by RG 1.3 for complying with NRC regulations to assure safety software reliability. - Software defects can be introduced and removed at each SDLC phase - The residual software defects may induce the software failure on-demand Fig. 1.

Overview of the BBN model The number of defects remaining in each SDLC phase is modeled a function of 1) The phase development quality (the developmental process adds defects), 2) The phase V&V quality (the V&V process removes defects). 7/
9 BBN Model Development Sub-level Structure At each SDLC phase, the states of Development quality determines: Defect density (the number of defects inserted per function point) (Defects introduced in current phase) = (Function Point) * (Defect Density) At each SDLC phase, the states of V&V quality determines: (1) Defect detection probability for defects introduced in the current phase (2) Defect detection probability for defects passed from the previous phases Fig. 3. BBN model for the Design 8/
10 BBN Model Development Sub-level Structure The model considers the Attribute which represents the quality in carrying out a collection of activities associated with the development and V&V qualities. The attributes were identified from software standard (IEEE-1012) and guidance (BTP- 14) and are modeled to be connected to the quality nodes in a diverging configuration. Fig. 4. Attributes nodes for Development quality in the Design phase Fig. 5. Attributes nodes for V&V quality in the Design phase 9/
11 BBN Parameter Quantification - Expert Elicitation Three phases of expert elicitation were conducted to estimate the BBN model. I : - Verify the causal relationship of the BBN nodes - Verify the model adequacy in capturing important attributes of SDLC II : - Estimate the prior distribution of the root nodes in BBN model - Estimate the NPTs of the child nodes in BBN model III: - Estimate specific evidence of the target system when applied to a particular safety software Fig. 6. Key steps in the BBN model evaluation 10/
12 BBN Parameter Quantification Initial Node Probability Table Expert elicitation (7 experts in the nuclear industry) is used to quantify the node probability table (NPT) of the BBN model parameters. To incorporate diverse experts opinion in a probabilistic manner, the NPTs was represented with the distribution of expert s opinions, rather than point estimates. Expert Elicitation on the node Number of FPs E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E7 < 100 FPs FPs & < 1000 FPs FPs NPT of Number of FP node in distribution form Number of FPs Distribution < 100 FPs Beta(1.59, 3.95) SDLC Expert Elicitation on the node V&V Complexity Low 5 th 50 th 95 th High E FPs & < 1000 FPs 1000 FPs Beta(4.07,4.03) Beta(2.79,10.22) NPT of Defect detection probability for defects introduced in current phase node in distribution form V&V Complexity High Medium Low Requirement Medium E E E E E E Low Cumulative Distribution Function of Fitted Distribution 1 CDF of Fitted Distribution Derived 0.9 from Collected Expert Elicitation Detection Probability of the Defects introduced at Current Require ment High Beta(1.81,1.40) Beta(4.09,1.06) Beta(3.74,0.59) Medium Beta(1.64,1.51) Beta(3.91,1.50) Beta(6.45,1.42) Low Beta(1.27,1.78) Beta(2.30,1.73) Beta(3.01,1.68) Design 11/
13 BBN Parameter Quantification Update of NPT with Reference In addition to the expert elicitation, other sources of evidence were used to Bayesian update the NPTs for Defect density and Defect detection probability nodes: (1 st stage) - Capers Jones, Applied Software Measurement: Global Analysis of Productivity and, Third edition, 2008 [4], In this study, CMM5 + 6σ, CMM4, Spiral software types were assumed to represent High, Medium, Low Development or V&V quality, respectively.

15 BBN Parameter Quantification Update of NPT with Observations 2 nd Bayesian update of the NPTs for Defect density and Defect detection probability nodes with observations of actual development projects: Software development anomaly reports of IDiPS-RPS [5] and LOCS [6]. In this study, the defect estimates in the anomaly reports for both applications were assumed to be the number of defects detected in each SDLC phase, and used to update defect density NPT. x j P j,h V j,h + P j,m V j,m + P j,l V j,l = y j x j : number of defects in each SDLC phase y j : number of defects in KNICS/LOCS data P j,i : Defect Detection Probability at i V&V in j phase V j,i : Posterior distribution for KNICS/LOCS application at i V&V in j phase BP BP/CP/ATI P/COM BP/CP/ATI P/COM Defect density data from KNICS reports (y i ) ANR (High) ANR (Medium) ANR (Low) Estimated Defects, y j Requirement Design Implementation Total Integration Validation (System testing) x j estimated from KNICS data Number of Defects, x j Requirement Design Implementation Test Installation and Checkout* * The Defect density for Installation and Checkout was not updated using KNICS data since the system was not installed or checkout. - 14/
16 BBN Parameter Quantification Update of NPT with Observations 2 nd Bayesian update Based on the derived number of defects per FP for KNICS/LOCS application, the data (defect density per function point at each SDLC phase) was used to update using conjugate prior from the defect density result which was updated from handbook data.

17 BBN Model Evaluation Based on the estimated NPTs, the number of software defects for typical digital protection system was estimated using the proposed BBN framework. By following FP counting rules [7], a sole-function safety software (low level external input + internal logic file + external output) has a representative size of 50 FPs. Considering the attributes are completed satisfactorily with respect to US regulatory licensing review, Medium quality is reasonably assumed for all attributes. Table 7.

18 Conclusion In this study, a practical BBN framework for quantifying the software failure probability of a NPP digital protection system was proposed. The BBN model was constructed by: (1) capturing NPP safety-related SDLC activity quality indicators and product information (2) establishing and quantifying the causal relationships between SDLC characteristics The BBN model parameter was estimated by: (1) aggregating largely diverse expert inputs using probability distribution of each cell of NPT (2) effectively integrating with other available sources of evidence Based on the proposed BBN model, the number of software faults for a typical NPP digital protection system was obtained. /
