The challenge of Functional Safety in Software defined Vehicle (SdV) architectures
The technology trend in the automotive industry is the usage of High Performance Computers (HPCs) as a central or domain ECU to optimize the vehicle network. However, these new host systems are limited in their Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) capability (only up to ASIL B). The industry is now challenged to transfer traditional safety concepts into innovative solutions by decomposing the safety load. Only if this succeeds the full potential of high flexibility enabled by service-oriented architecture can be unlocked.
SdV represents a step-change in how safety and reliability are addressed in modern vehicles. For SaRS members, this webinar offers a unique opportunity to explore how a decomposed safety concept can support the need for high flexibility and fast time-to-market.
This webinar will be particularly relevant to Functional Safety Managers, Functional Safety Engineers, System Architects & Design Engineers and R&D and Innovation Leads in Automotive & Mobility.
