The Global Aerospace and Defense Industry has seen impressive growth over the past decade. As a result, there is more emphasis on aggressive schedules, higher standards for integrated system performance, and greater visibility on safety critical projects. The Aerospace and Defense Industry face a high degree of supply-chain complexity from contractors, subcontractors, systems integrators and suppliers.

For instance the F-22 Raptor consists of about 1.7 million lines of software code. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter has about 5.7 million lines of code to operate its onboard systems. Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner requires about 6.5 million lines of software code to operate its avionics and onboard support systems. There are many moving pieces to consider in ensuring that there are no defects in your software. Do you have a scalable process in place to obtain visibility into the potential defects in your projects? Do you know how to measure the impact and effectively track the status of potential defects? Are there safety critical software defects in your supplier’s code?

Join us for a 1-hour webcast to learn how an automated software analysis helps effectively address the growing software complexity in the Aerospace and Defense Industry.
