Content:
to all life cycles. Life cycle activities produce process documents and design outputs which can be reviewed and assessed. The documents to be provided for each life cycle activity group are shown in Figure 7-A-1. It is acceptable to package documents differently than shown in the figure. For example, information which is assumed to be provided in two or more documents could be combined by the software developer into a single document, and information which is assumed to be provided in a single document could be provided in two or more documents. Further information on life cycles, activity groups, and document contents can be found in NUREG/CR-6101. Appendix 7-A Rev. 4 — June 1997 BTP HICB-14-7 2. Information to be Reviewed The information to be reviewed is subdivided into three topic areas: software life cycle process planning, listed in Section 2.1; software life cycle process implementation, listed in Section 2.2; and software life cycle process design outputs, listed in Section 2.3. The applicant/licensee need not develop a separate document for each of the topics identified below; however, project documentation should encompass all of the topics. The information reviewed need not be in separate documents. It is acceptable to package the information with other engineering project information, provided that the required information exists. This is particularly true of software life cycle planning information. For example, the software safety plan may be included in a general project safety plan. 2.1 Software Life Cycle Process Planning The information to be reviewed is contained in the following documents:  Software management plan.  Software development plan.  Software quality assurance plan.  Integration plan.  Installation plan.  Maintenance plan.  Training plan.  Operations plan.  Software safety plan.  Software verification and validation plan.  Software configuration management plan. 2.2 Software Life Cycle Process Implementation The
