+\section{Re-use of FMEA analysis}
+
+Given the {\bc} {\fm} to system level failure mode paradigm it is 
+difficult to re-use FMEA analysis.
+Several strategies to aid re-use have been proposed~\cite{rudov2009language, reuse_of_fmea}, but
+the fundamental problem remains, that, with any changes 
+to the component base in a system, it is very difficult to
+determine which FMEA test scenarios must be re-worked.

 \section{software and FMEA}
 
 Traditional FMEA deals only with electrical and mechanical components, i.e. it does not have provision for software.
