Abstract

If the use of Ada (or SPARK or some other tool) increases our confidence in the behavior of high integrity software systems, why does it do so? What do we mean by confidence, and what is a justified basis for asserting some level of confidence? In this talk, I'll address some recent research on the potential value of thinking about confidence in terms of eliminative induction, assurance cases, and confidence maps.
