Personnel shall demonstrate a working level knowledge of the functional

interfaces between safety system software components and the system-level

design.

Supporting Knowledge and/or Skills

Identify how system-level requirements are established and then assigned to

hardware, software, and human components of a digital instrumentation and

control system.

Identify the typical requirements that define functional interfaces between safety

system software components and the system -level design, as described in

standards such as ANSI/IEEE 830, IEEE Guide to Software Requirements

Specifications and IEEE 7-4.3.2, Standard Criteria for Digital Computers in Safety

Systems of Nuclear Power Generating Stations.

Identify the specific records that must be maintained and the requirements for

maintaining these records to document the development of safety system

software.

Review a development project for safety system software. Explain how the

functional interfaces between components and the system level design were

established and controlled.
