Predictable Assembly from Certifiable Code (PACC)
Our Goal
To predict the behavior of a component-based system prior to implementation, based on known properties of components
The PACC Vision
Software components have certified properties (for example, performance) and the behavior of systems assembled from components is predictable.
PACC Benefits
PACC enables you to
- establish design and implementation standards that lead to software systems with predictable runtime quality
- use automation to enforce these standards, leading to systems that are predictable by construction
- define objective standards and measures for trusted components, developed internally or by third parties
- incrementally and systematically introduce state-of-the-art prediction for new or more general classes of systems and properties
- provide a sound and objective basis to manage design risk and optimize design features
