Motivation: (QKit-)Compliances • Function-Specifications • Potential Errors • Known Bugs • Code-Coverage (ALL ASIL) • Architecture • Programming Guidelines • Tool Qualification Reports • Many Tests / TAU • … SWC Qualification Kit:(6-SEOOC Compliant) • Function-Specifications • Potential Errors • Known Bugs • Code-Coverage (ASIL D) • negative Tests / TAU • … SWC Qualification Kit:(8-12 Compliant) • Feature-Specifications • Potential Errors • Known Bugs • Mitigations • Requirements Tests / TAU • … Tool Qualification Kit:(8-11 Compliant) similar structures: development processes
Goals of Process Modeling Tool Goals: Making Safety Easier & Safer • Formalize & improve processes • Show compliance with safety standards (Safety Plan) • Support achieving compliance (Safety Case) • Document processes Features: • Model processes (with BPMB like visualization) • Validate processes (syntactically) for consistency and completeness • Generate process & compliance reports • Generate Verification & Validation Plans (for separate VVT) • Can be used for modelling of model-based processes • Has been used to certify Validas qualification processes • Will be open source soon

Example Compliane Argumentation • We use Test Generators that have to generate complete test case • We check this during V&V
Verification and Validation Model • V&V Model documents Verification and Validation (for all instances of the parameters) • V&V Model is basis for Verification and Validation Tool (VVT) • VVT Model is generated from PMT (based on Process and Planning parameters) • Meta Model of VVT:
Summary • Model-based process makes safety more safe • Safety plans & safety cases • PMT Prototype • Model processes with Parameters for Variants • Compliance Document Generators • VVT Prototype • Verification and Validation / check list generation is key for compliance • V&V report generation • Approach has been applied to certify Validas tool qualification process • Meta-Process can for semantic check of processes • Approach is currently used for all Validas qualification processes • QKits for tools • Classification & qualification of tool chains • QKits for libraries • QKits for software

Future? PMT = Project Management Tool • Process Modules & Artifacts have the following project states: • DEFINED: Initial State • READY: Inputs are available (and pre-ceeding tasks are done) • IN_PROGRESS: work started • DONE: work finished • Workflow: • DEFINED (initial) • READY (automatically determined by PMT) • DONE (set from user)
