    Abstract

    This paper examines how model checking can be used to support the qualification of digital I&C software in nuclear power plants, in a way that is consistent with regulatory demands - specifically, the common position of seven European nuclear regulators and authorised technical support organisations. As a practical example, we discuss the third-party review service provided by VTT for the power company Fortum in the I&C renewal project of the Loviisa plant in southern Finland.
