Conference Day One

9:10 AM Welcome Panel Discussion – Part 2 | Assumptions vs expectations: How to address complexity in electronic product development

• During this second part of the panel discussion, we welcome on the stage representatives from Tier 1s and OEMs for addressing concerns in product complexity and traceability.
• An opportunity for car maker representatives to discuss challenges they currently face with electronic suppliers.
• Safety mechanisms vs product availability: Is there such thing as too much safety? What are the expectations of car makers on system availability for highly automated features 

4:40 PM FSC development from Vehicle to Component Level

Systematic development of FSCs from vehicle down to component level is key to get wellstructured set of requirements specifications meeting completeness and correctness criteria on all levels. However, authors tend to specify technical requirements at the earliest stage possible having implementation solutions in mind. The presenter will show how the quality of requirements can be improved by staying on function level as much as possible and change to technical level only in the last phase before implementation. This has most impact on both ends of the development. HaRa is usually done on vehicle functions such as braking, or steering. HaRa can be done on higher level, i.e. on functions directly perceived by drivers. On the other hand functional safety requirements for SEooC’s are much more maintainable and much better to integrate into an overall concept than technical requirements.
