The focus of the session lies on presentations about software and system hazard analysis, construction of safety-relevant systems and software, methods for error detection, and integration of safety requirements in the design of communication networks. Further topics covered are on simulation and prototyping experiences of safety-critical functions such as chassis control, brake-by-wire, steer-by-wire and active safety systems. Additional presentations are on the relation of standards for the development of safety-critical systems/software such as IEC61508 to existing and upcoming development processes in the automotive industry.

Tuesday, April 15 Model-Based Design of Embedded Systems (Part 1 of 2) Session Code: AE14 Room W2-65 Session Time: 9:00 a.m. Today, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers face the seemingly conflicting goals of reducing development time and improving quality in the face of increasing demands to reduce complexity while still delivering technical innovations. To meet these challenges design engineers are increasingly turning to embedded systems to deliver innovative functionality. It is not uncommon for a luxury vehicle produced today to contain as many as 90 Electronic Control Units (ECUs), using four different network protocols and executing binary code generated from over 6 million lines of source code (MLOC). To meet this challenge, many leading OEMs and suppliers are using math-based models to support the development of the next generation of embedded systems through a process that has become known as Model-Based Design. In Model-Based Design, engineers use an executable specification that lets them iterate quickly through design concepts and simulations without needing to build physical prototypes. Later, they can use these executable specifications as the basis for real-time simulation and hardware-in-the-loop testing, automatic code generation and increasing to perform verification early in the process.

Advanced safety technologies, which help drivers avoid accidents and protect occupants when there are accidents, are increasingly being adopted in the automotive industry. The challenge in the development of these technologies is to balance the driver¿s sense of control with the oversight from the safety system. This session will focus on Advanced Safety technologies that exist which could make driving both a safer and pleasurable experience. In addition, the session will explorer how to identify technologies that are able to reduce the severity of crashes when they occur or mitigate injuries in crashes that would have otherwise been fatal as well as to explore the safety and driving performance benefits of these systems where possible. Lastly, the session will also explore how mission critical algorithms and the embedded systems necessary to implement active safety systems are designed and verified for real world applications.

Wednesday, April 16 Occupant Protection - Vehicle Aggressivity and Compatibility in Automotive Crashes Session Code: B39 Room O2-33 Session Time: 9:00 a.m. Historically, test procedures have been developed to maximize the protection of occupants of motor vehicles in crashes. It has become apparent that design characteristics that minimize injuries and fatalities in the subject car could result in increasing the probability of serious injury or death in the other vehicle involved in a crash. Because of the increase in SUVs, pickups and vans in the vehicle fleet, the problem of vehicle aggressivity and lack of compatibility is of great concern to the government, the automobile manufacturers, the insurance industry, and the population in general. This session focuses on research studies and tests to develop techniques to minimize human injuries and fatalities in both the struck vehicle and the striking vehicle in automotive crashes.

Traditional approaches to demonstrating reliability of systems and components (i.e., testing large sample sizes for long periods assuming a binomial distribution) are not practical when reliability goals are higher than 90-95%. For example, to demonstrate 99.9% reliability at 90% confidence, not an unreasonable goal in today's market, over 20,000 parts are required! This panel invites attendees to participate in an interactive discussion with developers of Robustness Validation, a new approach which provides a realistic and practical method for specifying and validating high reliability. Newly released SAE Recommended Practice J1879- Oct2007 Handbook for Robustness Validation of Semiconductor Devices in Automotive Applications, and SAE Recommended Practice J1211-Apr2008 Handbook for Robustness Validation of Automotive Electrical/Electronic Modules, will be discussed. These publications were developed over a 3-year period through a joint international Task Force activity representing SAE International, ZVEI (the German Association of Electronics Manufacturers), the Automotive Electronics Council), and Japan SAE. Task Force members included nearly 100 representatives from over 30 OEM, Tier 1 and Tier 2 electrical/electronic equipment manufacturers, and semiconductor makers from around the world. Work on a third Robustness Validation Handbook addressing system-level reliability is underway, and a collaborative effort between the aerospace and Automotive sectors has been initiated. The results of the NASA Pilot Benchmark Study Initiative, which identified validation metrics for design robustness as an essential element for meeting Constellation Project safety and reliability requirements, will also be presented.
