MIL-STD-498, Software Development and Documentation
What is MIL-STD-498?
MIL-STD-498 is the DoD's software development standard.
It was developed with four primary objectives:
  • Merge DOD-STD-2167A, used for weapon systems, with DOD-STD-7935A,used for automated information systems, creating a single software development standard for DoD.
  • Resolve issues raised in the use of these standards
  • Ensure compatibility with current DoD directives, instructions, and other standards
  • Provide a basis for U.S. implementation of ISO/IEC 12207, Software Life Cycle Processes
    The MIL-STD-498 package consists of the standard and 22 Data Item Descriptions (DIDs).
