Model-based assurance case templates
We are working on extending GSN patterns with references to system context models. GSN patterns support argument abstraction but the details of how it works are not specified. You can specify a claim “{System S} is sufficiently safe”, but the GSN standard doesn’t say how to manage the parameter S. You can find some guidance […]

Top-down assurance case development
Until now, modular assurance cases in PREMIS could only be developed from the bottom up. That is, you had to develop the argumentation of all the modules, create interfaces, assign argument elements to the interfaces, and finally bind the modules. The result can be presented in an architecture diagram. This was a long and tedious […]

PREMIS – a containerized assurance case tool
PREMIS, a containerized assurance case tool, will replace NOR-STA at the end of July. Containerization allows us to improve application portability, security, performance and maintainability. PREMIS will maintain the full range of NOR-STA features and the API, and will additionally offer new possibilities. Migrating from NOR-STA to PREMIS will be smooth for users and will […]
