PINCETTE — Validating changes and upgrades in networked software

Summary form only given. PINCETTE is a STREP project under the European Community´s 7th Framework Programme [FP7/2007-2013]. The project focuses on detecting failures resulting from software changes, thus improving the reliability of networked software systems. The goal of the project is to produce technology for efficient and scalable verification of complex evolving networked software systems, based on integration of static and dynamic analysis and verification algorithms, and the accompanying methodology. The resulting technology will also provide quality metrics to measure the thoroughness of verification. The PINCETTE consortium is composed of the following partners: IBM Israel, University of Oxford, Universita della Svizzera Italiana (USI), Universita degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca (UniMiB), Technical Research Center of Finland (VTT), ABB, and Israeli Aerospace Industries (IAI).
