The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE) is developing the first standard for the verification, validation and accreditation (VV&A) of high-level architecture federations.

The VV&A standard, IEEE P1516.4 - Verification, Validation and Accreditation of a Federation, an Overlay to the High Level Architecture Federation Development and Execution Process, will provide a framework into which VV&A practices can be integrated and tailored for specific applications.

The VV&A overlay will offer implementation guidance to VV&A practitioners for many end uses by focusing on VV&A processes that apply to federations.

This overlay will recommend VV&A processes to assure the acceptability and utility of federations for particular uses. It also will describe the information to be fed to and resulting from those processes, as well as the relationships between federation development and execution process and VV&A processes and their information products.

IEEE P1516.4 supports consistent planning, implementation and documentation of VV&A activities, which generally involve participants from multiple organizations or countries.

The IEEE has also approved the revision of IEEE 16085 - Systems and Software Engineering - Life Cycle Processes - Risk Management, which describes a process for managing risk during the development, operation and maintenance of systems and software. It addresses risk management from the enterprise management viewpoint, rather than from that of a particular project. IEEE 16085 provides a unifying risk management process for use with IEEE 12207 and IEEE 15288.

The IEEE also began to revise IEEE P25051 - Software Engineering - Software Product Quality Requirements and Evaluation (SQuaRE) - Requirements for Quality of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Software Product and Instructions for Testing.

This international software standard sets quality requirements, requirements for documenting testing and instructions for conformity evaluation. IEEE P25051 will replace IEEE 1465.
