System and method for calculating software certification risks
First Claim
1. A method for calculating a composite risk, the method comprising:
- receiving information associated with a plurality of risk factors, wherein the information includes a timeline for each risk factor, the timeline including a plurality of discrete time points;
determining risk values indicative of risk levels of each risk factor associated with the plurality of discrete time points; and
calculating the composite risk using the determined risk values and a relationship between the composite risk and the plurality of risk factors, wherein the composite risk includes a plurality of composite risk values associated with the plurality of discrete time points.

Abstract
A method for calculating a composite risk is disclosed. The method may include receiving information associated with a plurality of risk factors. The information may include a timeline for each risk factor, and the timeline may include a plurality of discrete time points. The method may further include determining risk values indicative of risk levels of each risk factor associated with the plurality of discrete time points. The method may also include calculating the composite risk using the determined risk values and a relationship between the composite risk and the plurality of risk factors. The composite risk may include a plurality of composite risk values associated with the plurality of discrete time points.
