<h2>Software</h2>

<p>The quality of the software in Nokia equipment is ensured
by several procedures in its development. The software development is run
as a process, constructed of many phases such as software design, implementation,
and different types of testing. In addition to comprehensive testing, the
quality of the software is ensured by reviews and inspections.</p>


<p>The phases of the software development product process
are supported by methods, tools, and procedures, which follow set quality
standards. Many GSM standards are also used in the software specification
and designing phases.</p>


<p>The modularity of the software in Nokia equipment also
enables high quality control.</p>
