safety system software. NUREG/CR-6101, “Software Reliability and Safety in Nuclear Reactor Protection Systems.” The information in this BTP is generally based on the regulatory basis and guidance identified above, supplemented as appropriate for attaining the required safety functions. This BTP presents specific acceptance criteria for the elements of software reviews; however, important context information is found in the concepts contained in the referenced standards, reports, and RGs. BTP 7.14-5 Revision 6 - August 2016 A.3 Definitions Activity group - A collection of software life cycle activities, all of which are related to a specific life cycle topic. Design output - Documents such as drawings and specifications, which define technical requirements of structures, systems, and components. For software, design outputs include the products of the development process that describe the end product that will be installed in the plant. The design outputs of a software development process include software requirements specifications, software design specifications, hardware and software architecture designs, code listings, system build documents, installation configuration tables, operations manuals, maintenance manuals, and training manuals. Deterministic timing - Timing is deterministic if the time delay between stimulus and response has a guaranteed maximum and minimum. Documentation - Information recorded about a specific life cycle activity. Documentation includes software life cycle design outputs and software life cycle process documentation. A document may be in written or electronic format, and may contain text, illustrations, tables, computer files, program listings, binary images, and other forms of expression. Plan - The document describing a specific implementation of a process (i.e., an instance of a process) that will be implemented. Process - A series of actions, changes, or functions bringing about a result. A QA program is an example of a
