Smart verification and validation for autonomous vehicles

In the development of autonomous driving vehicles it is critical to gain confidence in the functional safety performance of AV systems and ensure they behave as intended by a defined set of rules. It is therefore important to simulate how they will perform under thousands of different scenarios.

This white paper provides insight into Siemens Digital Industries Software’s solution to verify and validate high-integrity systems operating in autonomous environments, on a mass scale and across the entire system of systems.

The rise to predominantly autonomous driving vehicles begs the question of functional safety and confidence in AV systems, ensuring that these systems behave as intended by a defined set of rules. Siemens Digital Industries Software explores an approach to verifying and validating high-integrity systems operating in autonomous environments across the entire system of systems.

With the introduction of Simcenter Prescan360, Siemens introduces an off-the-shelf solution for validating and verifying autonomous driving vehicles on a mass scale.

It includes 4 phases:

1. Requirements specification and modeling 
2. Smart testing scenarios modeling 
3. Behavioral modeling of agents 
4. Reliability and security modeling

The white paper describes a new methodology to make autonomous vehicles safe.
