Towards employing metrics in measuring the quality of software safety critical systems and managing their development

Failures in safety critical systems have a high impact on the environment in which they are used. For that, developers usually follow specific development standards and techniques to avoid and reduce failures in such systems. Developers have to build safety critical systems considering the quality,...
