DLR Institute of Systems Engineering for Future Mobility - Technical Trustworthiness as a Basis for Highly Automated and Autonomous Systems

Kurzfassung

The newly established Institute of Systems Engineering for Future Mobility within the German Aerospace Center opened its doors at the beginning of 2022. Emerging from the former OFFIS Division Transportation after a two-year transition phase, the new institute can draw on more than thirty years of experience in the research field of safety-critical systems. With the transition to the DLR, the institute's new research roadmap focuses on technical trustworthiness for highly automated and autonomous systems. Within this field, the institute will develop new concepts, methods, and tools to support the integration and assurance of technical trustworthiness for automated and autonomous systems during their whole lifecycle – from the early development through verification, validation, and operation to updates of the systems in the field.
