You don't believe an IEEE report? It was published on one of their
magazines, the Spectrum, I think, not over two years ago. I might still
have it around somewhere.
They don't rely on testing to get it done: it is correct by design. They
don't write a single line of code till it is fully designed, and I mean
fully. And not simple software, nor cheap, either.
