AEIT Automotive 2021

On 18 th of November, ArchitectECA2030 coordinator dr. Cristina De Luca represented the project in a virtual International Conference AEIT Automotive 2021. Participants of the event had the opportunity to listen to the project-related presentation „Electric, connected and automated vehicles, what about Risk, Trust, and Failure?”

According to the presentation, vehicle automation is emerging in many forms and has many social implications. In order to take full advantage of emerging technologies, Electric, Connected and Automated (ECA) vehicles need to be trustworthy. People must feel safe and want to use and buy new services that ECAs open up to them. Consequently, there is a strong need for independent and reproducible validation of automated vehicles even though it have to dial with non-deterministic elements.

The ArchitectECA2030 goals are to manage failure modes, uncertainties, and failure probabilities, propagating through the entire ECA vehicle stack consisting of on-board HW, on-board SW, off-board SW and data, development and validation methodologies, to support hazard identification, risk analysis, and sufficient risk mitigation.
