The Truth behind the future of Software Define Vehicles

The automotive world is in a revolution that presents itself as a new paradigm to define vehicles, a Software Define Vehicle. It is not the first Automotive disruption that this industry is facing in a century, remembering electronics replacing mechanical parts already decades ago. Today the software is expanding its presence exponentially, with the ultimate goal being to deliver a better customer experience and new digital services.

Qualified Tools: Confidence in your daily use of IDEs

Oscar Slotosch (Validas AG)

Alexander Fedorov (ArSysOp)

Safety standards like ISO 26262 requires "Confidence in the use of SW tools". But how this could be applied to your daily use of Tools and IDEs?

Within the talk we present the requirements from safety standards and explain what this means for Tool developers and Tool users. Tools need to be classified and if they are critical they need to be qualified in order to use them with confidence to avoid safety critical incidents caused by Tool failures.

Open-Source in Safety-Critical Systems? How does that work?

Simon Hoinkis (Apex.AI, Inc)

The automotive software industry has always been synonymous for old compilers, out-dated toolchains and resource constraint hardware. “Only use something which has been proven in-use” most safety engineers would argue. In the past, in a distributed E/E-Architecture, this argument would apply because of a low number of independently functioning electronic control units (ECUs).
