Functional Safety Engineer (MOOC)

MOOC - Functional Safety Engineer

Engineering aspects of Functional Safety

This unit is the essential complement of Unit 2, i.e., the unit covering the management aspects of functional safety. Its main objective is to bridge the gap between the theoretical standards, and the practical implementation of the latter’s rules and requirements. This is considered the main particularity that distinguishes SafEUr from comparable trainings in the same field.


Integrating Safety in Software Design & Test:

This element focuses on software issues in system design and test.

SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC1
The student is able to understand the design of a safety-critical signal path in the software architecture
SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC2
The student is able to understand different software architectural measures to cover Level-2 and Level-3 diagnosis based on E-Gas reference model
SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC3
The student is able to understand how to specify a diagnosis matrix covering all safety diagnosis functions required to achieve the diagnostic coverage
SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC4
The student is able to understand strategies for plausibility checks, voting, and diversity
SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC5
The student is able to develop software tests (e.g. fault injection) on the hardware target to show the diagnostic coverage
SAFEUR.U3.E4.PC6
The student knows the basic software test methods and is able to select the appropriated test methods for SW unit test, SW integration and SW test.
