Welcome to the MISRA discussion forum

The MISRA AC family of documents deals with the application of language subsets for automatic code generation purposes in automotive systems. This document, MISRA AC INT, explains the structure of and relationships between the MISRA AC documents.

It is strongly recommended that users of MISRA AC documents, including MISRA AC TL and MISRA AC AGC, read this document.

It is clear that implementing the MISRA code guidelines costs a lot in training, and that it bloats source code to some extent. Do the guidelines provide more benefit than their cost? I am somewhat sceptical about these benefits.

The MISRA guidelines have been in use for around a decade. There will thus surely have been some studies undertaken that demonstrate that the MISRA guidelines work, for some value of \"work\". Or, more accurately put, that determine in which circumstances they are useful and in which they are not.

I am disappointed not to be able to find any references to these studies on the MISRA web site. I wasn't able to find any with an internet search (though my googling skills are not that good).

Would somebody please point out these studies to me?

Thanks in advance!

Hi folks,

I had read in an article by Mr. Chris Hills http://(http://www.phaedsys.org/papersese0604.html)a few days back mentioning that the exemplar suite for the MISRA-C:2004 would be uploaded in a few days.
When can I expect the exemplar suite for MISRA-C:2004 to be uploaded? If its already uploaded, could I know the url to download it from.

Regards,
Rahul Mishra
