Default Re: Airbus: Språktabbe blir dyr...

Heisann, husker dere den "minimale" software feilen på Ariane 5 raketten som oppstod like etter oppskytning fra Fransk Guiana?
Quote:
Several earlier columns in IEEE Computer have emphasized the importance of Design by ContractTM for constructing reliable software.

A $500-million software error provides a sobering reminder that this principle is not just a pleasant academic ideal.

Its conclusion: the explosion was the result of a software error -- possibly the costliest in history (at least in dollar terms, since earlier cases have caused loss of life).
Dere som vil kan lese resten The Lessons of Ariane

Kan man trekke en parallell her?
