Abstract

The next generation of networked embedded systems (ES) necessitates rapid prototyping and high performance while maintaining key qualities like trustworthiness and safety. However, development of safety-critical ES suffers from complex software (SW) toolchains and engineering processes. Moreover, the current trend in autonomous systems, which relies on Machine Learning (ML) and AI applications when combined with fail-operational requirements renders the Verification and Validation (V&V) of these new systems a challenging endeavor. Prime examples are Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) that are prone to various safety/security vulnerabilities. The XANDAR project aims at developing a mature SW toolchain (from requirements analysis to the actual code integration on target including V&V) fulfilling the needs of industry for rapid prototyping of interoperable and autonomous ES. Starting from a model-based system architecture, XANDAR will leverage automatic model synthesis and software parallelization techniques to achieve specific non-functional requirements setting the foundation for a novel (real-time, safety-, and security)-by-Construction paradigm.
