Static analysis within industrial applications provides a means of gaining higher assurance for critical software. This survey notes several problems, such as the lack of adequate standards, difficulty in assessing benefits, validation of the model used and acceptance by regulatory bodies. It concludes by outlining potential solutions and future directions
