The problem of how to best classify system errors has been a topic of research for years. In this paper, we present an established taxonomy that draws on a broad range of previous work in this area: the Architecture Analysis and Design Languages (AADL) EMV2 Error Library. The error library is now part of an international standard and has been used in a range of systems and domains. In this work, we describe its features, including that: a) it is deeply integrated in a rich, semi-formal system modeling language (AADL); b) the errors it includes have formalized semantics; and c) it is designed to be easily extensible by system developers to become domain or system-specific. We describe the original inspirations and prior work that informed the library's design, document the error families that comprise the taxonomy, and discuss the library's usage in an architecturally-integrated system assurance process. |
