Modeling of safety structure according to ISO Standard 26262

Module nameModeling of safety structure according to ISO Standard 26262
Type of moduleSelectable mandatory module
Learning results,
competencies, qualification goals
The students are able to theoretically design and create complex electronic systems for safety-critical applications of vehicles. This lecture provides a basic understanding of the fundamental safety-related methods on the basis of the state of the art.
The students learn something about the significant procedures that are needed to determine complex, safety-related problems. Learning results with regard to the selectable mandatory module: After the completion of the lecture, the students will have developed knowledge about the safety technology in the automotive sector. They will be able to solve fundamental tasks in the field of modeling safety architectures independently.
