Applying V&V technologies to automotive engine control: challenges and directions
par Jim Kapinski de TEMA Toyota Technical Center in Los Angeles



Abstract: In the model-based development (MBD) paradigm for embedded control software, verification and validation (V&V) technologies are critical to ensure high quality of the software. In the automotive context, powertrain control (PTC) software development is increasingly being performed using MBD principles; however, application of advanced V&V techniques to PTC software continues to be a difficult task. We present some key features of PTC systems that contribute to this challenge and discuss our perspective on the spectrum of extant V&V techniques. We argue that simulation-based techniques to increase confidence in system designs should be investigated, and we present an overview of some of our recent work in this space.
