Joint efforts between China and the EU have helped to ensure that the nuclear power industry has state-of-the-art methods and data for assessing safety-critical software.
Modern nuclear power plants require digital instrumentation and control (I&C) systems that can reliably monitor all operational aspects and dynamically make adjustments to ensure safety. Software in such systems require an assessment approach to ensure that they are as fault-free as possible. Moreover, differences in licensing approaches adopted in each country hinder the establishment of best practices.
