Nuclear Surety Cross Check Analysis (NSCCA) for ASIC

hnical Evaluation (NSATE)/ Independent Verification/Validation (IV&V) for the Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) hardware/ software integration for the Sentinel Weapon System. NSCCA/NSATE is defined in AFMAN 91-119/AFMAN 91-118; test, simulations, and other evaluation techniques must be

used to prove the safety and surety of the weapon system and for a thorough software verification process. The Government is evaluating Independent Verification/Validation options for nuclear safety design certification for ASIC hardware/so
