Software safety is of critical importance to the ongoing success of the aviation industry. The DO-178 standard is the de-facto standard for safe aviation software across different regulatory contexts. Regulatory usage of DO-178 has coincided with an excellent aviation safety record, and therefore is often considered a success. There is an open question on whether the DO-178 standard prohibits the ability to utilize recent innovative techniques and processes that are being used by the broader software industry. This question is increasingly relevant in a time when rising software complexity, long considered a challenge, is posing a serious threat to the continued success of the industry. Aviation software is particularly subject to this complexity, and is challenged by growing software size, increased importance, and other accidental complexity.
