Synopsis
Excerpt from Toshiba's Fuchu Software Factory: Strategy, Technology, and Organization
A typical example of the problem Toshiba faced was an order to develop the hardware and software for what would be the world's first fully automated thermal power generating station for Tokyo Electric, the Hirano Plant. Not only did this require software running into several millions of lines of code. To achieve safe and untended operation, hardware and software reliability requirements were extremely stringent, placing tremendous demand's on Toshiba software capabilities.
