  • Abstract
    This paper describes the certification of the ASCET code generator to a safety standard, the IEC 61508. A certificate confirms the compliance of a product, a process, or a service to set of requirements by an independent authority. For this paper, the requirements are taken from the IEC 61508. First, the underlying idea of the standard is explained. The motivation for a certification is highlighted. Then, the process and milestones of a certification project are described. The outlook discusses the future of the IEC 61508 and its industry specific daughter standard, the ISO 26262. The ISO 26262 is currently drafted.
