Program Plan Intro
Safety Critical System:
Safety-Critical System is the system where the system operations performed is always safe. The system does not provide any damage to the people or the other environment which is regardless to the specification it carries. Example of safety-critical system comprises of control process in chemical and pharmaceutical industries, control and monitoring system in aircraft.
There are two classes of safety-critical software. They are:
- Primary safety-critical software
- Secondary safety-critical software

In terms of probability and consequence, it is unclear why intervals rather than precise numbers are preferred for risk assessments.
Using your knowledge of knock-out options and their pricing via Monte Carlo simulation, demonstrate the effect on option prices when we vary the frequency at which barrier crossing is checked. This question is intentionally ambiguous to assess your maturity in approaching problems that are likely to arise in the real world. You will choose your own option parameters, perform the simulation and report the results as you see fit in order to demonstrate the effect. Type your code here, followed by a commentary
It is not obvious why intervals in risk analyses are preferred over exact numbers when referring to both probability and consequence.

- A partially completed version of the worksheet is shown below. To complete the spreadsheet, you need to understand the discount policy, which states that a discount is given if the total sale is equa to or greater than the discount threshold. Complete the worksheet in the figure, then create two additional scenarios for different selling strategies. In one scenario lower the discount threshold and discount percentage to $3000 and 12%, respectively. Increase these values in a second scenario to $10,000 and 20%. Save all three scenarios and submit the completed assignment.

The idea is to evaluate an action by following the ideas of utilitarian ethics ala John Stuart Mill. The focus would be on the identifying possible ways in which an action taken by a stakeholder would result in harm or benefit. Having identified potential harm and benefit, one can compare and weigh harm versus benefit in evaluating an action.Steps like the following could be applied:1. If the action is taken, determine who is affected (consequences)2. Determine how they would be affected3. Determine any harmful effects (financial loss, suffering, deprivation ofrights, reduce quality of life, increase risk, diminish security, etc)4. Determine beneficial effects (financial gain, improve safety, elevate qualityof life, improve health, improve security, etc)5. Compare the actions in terms of their relative harm and benefit, arriving ataction choices that provide gains in utility.Special note for the final report is to write something…arrow_forwardIf you could perhaps provide three compelling reasons in behalf of the spiral model rather than the waterfall model, I would really appreciate it.

You can make one up, or use a scenario from everyday life. Either way, be sure to show all possible outcomes. (An example might be course prerequisites (and possible waivers) that determine whether a student can take a particular course; various discounts that can (or cannot) be combined to change the price at a retail store; or a company policy that allows an employee to take sick leave if he or she has enough seniority and accumulated sick leave time.)arrow_forwardExplain the relationship between NPV and risk.
