Item Experiences and conclusions towards a harmonized process for the certification of equipment connected to the electricity network: Islanding prevention(2007) De Muro, Asier Gil; Perea, Eugenio; Zabala, Eduardo; POWER ELECTRONICS AND SYSTEM EQUIPMENT; DIGITAL ENERGY; Tecnalia Research & InnovationManufacturers of equipment to be connected to the electricity network, in the new liberalized market, have to evidence compliance with the new requirements that are expected to be asked. In the same way, certification laboratories have to undertake a great investment to purchase new measurement equipment and train personnel to continue to fulfil their aim as accredited certification bodies in the electricity sector and, more concretely, in the Distributed Energy Resources interconnection, Power Quality and EMC domains. This paper describes some conclusions based on the experiences of LABEIN-Tecnalia, as a well known accredited certification entity, with the objective to illustrate the efforts carried out, mainly in the field of islanding prevention. The paper starts from a description of the accreditation and compliance processes, it features a new laboratory specification, and then analyzes the first experimental tests and results to show the capabilities of the laboratory, in order to verify that a system connected to the electricity grid is compliant with the islanding requirements.Item An industrial experience in cross domain assurance projects(Springer Verlag, 2015) Ruiz, Alejandra; Larrucea, Xabier; Espinoza, Huascar; Aime, Franck; Marchand, Cyril; Yilmaz, Murat; Poth, Alexander; O’Connor, Rory V.; Akkaya, Mariye Umay; Kemaneci, Kerem; Messnarz, Richard; Quantum; Tecnalia Research & InnovationCompanies related to safety critical systems developments invest efforts and resources to assure that their systems are safe enough. Traditionally reuse strategies have been proposed to reduce these efforts in several domains which criticality is not a key aspect. However reusing software artefacts across different domains establishes new challenges especially between safety critical systems. In fact we need to take into account different domain specific standards requirements at the same time. In this paper we present our experience on cross domain assurance involving a reuse of a software component developed for the railway domain, and to be used for the avionics domain.Item A tool suite for assurance cases and evidences: Avionics experiences(Springer Verlag, 2015) Ruiz, Alejandra; Larrucea, Xabier; Espinoza, Huascar; Yilmaz, Murat; Poth, Alexander; O’Connor, Rory V.; Akkaya, Mariye Umay; Kemaneci, Kerem; Messnarz, Richard; Quantum; Tecnalia Research & InnovationThis paper describes a specification and an implementation of a flexible tool platform for assurance and certification of safety-critical systems. This tool platform is built upon a comprehensive conceptual assurance and certification framework. This conceptual framework is composed of a common information model called CCL (Common Certification Language) and a compositional assurance approach. Our tool platform allows an easy integration with existing solutions supporting interoperability with existing development and assurance tools. The ultimate goal of our platform is to provide an integrated approach for managing assurance cases and evidences resulting from a safety project.
