The What And Why of VV&A
VV&A vs IV&V vs Confidence Assessment
Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) usually done after development
Verification, Validation, and Accreditation (VV&A) should parallel development
Confidence Assessment usually a short-term, limited IV&V (budget constraints)
Cost of VV&A
