Abstract
One of the greatest fears of emerging professional disciplines is that governmental actions-court decisions and third-party standards-will preempt the profession´s active participation in legislative and regulatory processes. Indeed, software engineering standards, such as the Underwriters Laboratories´ Standard for Safety-Related Software (UL 1998, first and second editions), have preceded the development of practices, legislation, and regulation
