In the automotive sector too, we are witnessing an increasing number of systems engineering approaches. Nonetheless, a distinct profile has still to be developed that clearly defines its limits and interfaces with other development and research areas and gives a specific identity to automotive systems engineering. Consequently, conferences and publications offering opportunities to exchange experience on this topic are also lacking. Despite the fact that many scientists and practitioners are working on Automotive Systems Engineering issues, a pinpointed community has not yet emerged that covers at least the major areas involved. Automotive Systems Engineering pools many disciplines, from control engineering, test development, development of mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic hardware and software. And through ergonomics, issues of human physiology and psychology also permeate through the driver-vehicle system. Automotive Systems Engineering combines a multiple of disciplines, but being ‘‘sandwiched’’ between so many different stools its position is also weakened. Personal talks between the editors on this situation lead to a workshop where ASE- related activities were presented and an intensive exchange of experience was ini- tiated. The successful outcome resulted in this publication with the ambition of encouraging an exchange of experience beyond our two institutes. The topics covered in each chapter have their roots in doctoral theses still ongoing or nearing completion. They present the state of science centering on development method- ology and with a limited application focus. A clear heterogeneity is visible both within and between the institutes, although it would be feasible and also desirable to reach more harmonised approaches. The perspective pursued with this publication, therefore, is to enhance standardisation, both in the terminology used and in pre- valent definitions for methods—a common process when building communities. By means of workshops and specialised publications, we intend to advance the com- munity-building process together with a wider range of partners from academia and industry and trust that the present work will provide an appropriate foundation. Alongside chapters presenting scientific studies, the editors’ subjective per- spectives on the topic are added, leaning on talks and lectures and their back- ground experience in academia and industry. v vi Preface We wish our readers stimulating reading and look forward to receiving a wide spectrum of feedback to help us tread the path towards an automotive systems engineering community.

This is not based on systematic research, has no claim to be representative and may be highly subjective. It is the product of my experience in a number of predevelopment projects and an initial development for volume production at a tier-one supplier, as well as university research into functional and methodological aspects of Systems Engineering. 1.2 Definition of Terms 1.2.1 System A group of elements which are relevant (and not merely useful) for achieving a pur- pose, which interact with each other, and which have a structure within predefined boundaries.1 While this and similar definitions allow us to characterise a system, in practice it is particularly difficult to define the boundaries of the system. In a transport sys- tem, a road vehicle (possibly together with a driver) is an element of the system. 1 As there are many different definitions for the term “system”, major parts of the present definition will unavoidably overlap with one or several of them. No claim to originality is made, therefore, in regard to this or any subsequent definitions used. H.

Winner For an automotive manufacturer the car is the system, for the unit responsible for a module—whether a vehicle manufacturer or a module supplier (e.g. for the brakes)— the module is the system, where elements of this system can in turn be elements of another system, e.g. the data communication system or a system which functionally serves a different purpose, such as an Adaptive Cruise Control. A well-chosen system boundary contains all the elements which are relevant to the purpose and amenable to influence, with a minimum level of complexity. 1.2.2 System Design Concept, specification, implementation, verification and validation of a technical system for achieving a specific (and mostly functional) objective. Project management can be an integral or complementary element. This definition consciously follows the familiar V-model, which describes devel- opment as a phase of project definition descending to the point of implementation and subsequently rising again through a test phase to the highest level. How far project management is part of system design is a matter of opinion. This will, however, be the case where the system design process involves both functional and organisa- tional roles, e.g. if there is strict separation of responsibility for implementation
