Functional Safety

Introduction

Functional Safety is emerging as a critical area with new advancements, the complexity of functionality and the number of increasing control units in the vehicles. With the trend of increasing technological complexity, software content and Mechatronic implementation, there are increasing risks from systematic failures and random hardware failures. A time has come to think in terms of ISO 26262 standard and beyond and the need for healthy discussion, exchange of ideas and evaluation of new concepts and tools, especially in view of the advent of Autonomous and Connected vehicles with Cyber security not in the too distant future.

The objective of the conference is to create an ecosystem of Functional Safety professionals and practitioners in OEMs, Tier 1, Tier 2 & Service Providers. We will have 12+ eminent leaders and experts in the area of Functional Safety, from India and abroad, delivering Keynote Address, participating in Panel Discussion and presenting Technical papers which are aligned to the theme "Enhancing In-Built Safety – Securing Future".

The Organizing Committee consists of leaders from Bosch, TUV SUD, Continental Automotive, Mahindra Electric, Maruti Suzuki, TVS Motors, Tata Motors, ARAI, Ansys, etc.

Overview

Overview:

Automotive engineers working on safety-related, embedded systems for traditional and autonomous vehicles are looking for efficient ways to achieve the process rigor imposed by ISO 26262, a functional safety standard for passenger car development.

As industry experts have long recognized, safety is more about getting the system and its requirements right than about the software and how it was coded.

With continuous- and discrete-time simulation as its backbone, Model-Based Design with Simulink® lets you design and test your full system under a wide range of driving conditions and fault scenarios long before you go to the proving grounds or perform fleet tests. As a result, Model-Based Design is enabling engineers worldwide to create increasingly complex systems within shrinking schedules. Across industries, engineers have cut development time by 50% or more by placing a model at the core of the development process. Using MATLAB and Simulink, these organizations speed up embedded controller development and deliver products that meet market requirements for safety, functionality, and performance.

During this workshop, you will have the opportunity to gain experience in TÜV SÜD approved workflow for Model-Based Design using Simulink for ISO 26262 projects. This would include system architecture design and analysis, designing algorithm models, use different verification and validation methodologies to gain confidence in the design, generate production-quality code, and analyze code as per standards and guidelines.
