AnalysisFailure Mode and Effects AnalysisUnlike PHA, RBD, and FTA, FMEA is considered an inductive approach to failure analysis.Here the analysis is done from an individual component (or in the case of a Software FMEA, an Page 10.212.3individual variable), and following the problem as it influences the subsystem or system. Thegoal of an FMEA is to identify problems and rank them using a Risk Priority Number, or RPN.

AC 2012-3372: SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EDUCATION NEEDS MOREENGINEERINGProf. A. Frank Ackerman, Montana Tech of the University of Montana A. Frank Ackerman has 50 years of experience in all phases of software development. In 1985, he founded the Institute For Zero Defect Software to do applied research, consulting, and training for software de- velopment organizations seeking to improve the reliability of their software. His personal experience has lead him to the conviction that today’s development organizations can achieve significant improvement in software reliability for a small increase in effort. Some of his current research and educational activities are focused on improving current specification, coding, test

The primary reason that thismethodology has held such sway in education was that it allowed quick action for the first majorusers of computers. This approach was the most straight-forward means of utilizing hardwarethat, over the last 60 years, has gotten faster and more complex through smaller and moredensely packed elements.

Using Inexpensive Hardware and Software Tools to Teach Software Defined Radio Abstract Signal processing topics such as software defined radio are more easily taught by using demonstra- tions and laboratory experiences that pique the students’ interest. This paper describes a new, inexpensive software defined radio educational platform based upon M ATLAB and the Texas Instruments C6713 dig- ital signal processing starter kit. We describe the various hardware and software issues and discuss how such a platform can be used in the classroom.1 INTRODUCTIONSoftware defined radio (SDR) is a topic that is becoming

In SDR,signal modulation and information coding are defined in the system's software, nothardware. The authors have incorporated SDR design into their respective curricula bothto support the growing demand for SDR engineering and to teach widely applicablesystems engineering concepts. SDR-oriented curricular changes include new courses,laboratories, and software design tools.
