“Are YOUR C++ Objects oriented for Safety Compliance?” AFuzion & Solid Sands Explain

A Webinar co-hosted by Solid Sands’ CTO, Marcel Beemster, and Afuzion’s CTO, Vance Hilderman. Main Takeaways: C++ is not simply an extension of C. Requirements-based tests with traceability exist for parts of the C++ standard library. Worry about templates mostly if you try to analyze the standard library – normal code is not so weird. […]

Webinar: Compiler Explorer’s ‪Matt Godbolt‬ meets Solid Sands’ CTO, Marcel Beemster

Here is a list of talking points they want to discuss, but given that this is an unscripted conversation, they may never get to:

  • How early computers shaped their careers.
  • The draw of speed and efficiency in computing.
  • What led to the creation of Compiler Explorer in 2012 and, independently, at the other side of the ocean, Solid Sands in 2014?
  • How Compiler Explorer met Solid Sands.
  • What is pushing the growth of Compiler Explorer, and where does Matt see it going?
  • What are the latest developments at Solid Sands, and what is in store for the future?

SuperTest and SuperGuard: Ensuring Safety-Critical Software is Built on a Solid Foundation

Compilers and libraries play a critical role in any software development process. That is why functional safety standards such as ISO 26262, IEC 61508, EN 50128, and IEC 62304 require that compilers and libraries are qualified. By integrating a proper validation process early, you can maintain full traceability and minimize risks towards product release. It will also ensure that your toolchain supports safety-critical application development in industries like automotive, medical, industrial, and rail.
