Computer source code, review

Generally, widely distributed Off-The-Shelf (OTS) software is not considered to need Source Code Review if a reputable developer has produced it under an effective system of quality assurance and the product requires no more than an application parameter configuration. In most computer systems, therefore, Source Code Reviews are limited to custom (bespoke) software and configuration within OTS software products.

All of the areas of proof described above provide evidence concerning the current operations of the computer systems in place, but can those same controls be expected to continue to function over time Certainly a trend of control provides some presumption, and annual SOP review procedures provide a degree of assurance, but the most significant evidence of system reliability lies internal to the software and is documented only through a review of that source code itself. 

Abstract Software and computer systems are tested during all development phases. The user requirements and functional specifications documents are reviewed by programmers and typical anticipated users. The design specifications are reviewed by peers in one to two day sessions and the source code is inspected by peers, if necessary. Finally, the function and performance of the system is tested by typ-... 

Use a spreadsheet program such as EXCEL or its equivalent to construct a five-point calibration plot. The plot should show absorbance values on the ordinate and concentration as ppm P on the abscissa. Use a least squares regression to fit the experimental points and calculate the correlation coefficient. Calculate the percent error and the confidence interval at 95% probability for the ICV. Report on the unknown ppm P and estimate the confidence interval at 95% probability for both the surface-water sample and the sample given to you by the instructor be sure to include the code for this sample. Review this method in a resource such as Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater or other sources of the colorimetric determination of phosphorus and discuss the effect of matric interferences on the precision and accuracy for determining P in environmental samples using the visible spectrophotometric method. A computer program written in BASIC (refer to Appendix C) is available with which to use to...
