Furthermore, it includes a flexible
catalogue of actors, maneuvers, sce-narios
and data, which can be up-dated
to accommodate new da-ta
and testing activities from both
testing prior to start of produc-tion
and later in-use phases. As
the testing catalogue grows, it re-duces
effort by enabling scenari-os
to be created by simply adding
different elements from the cata-logue,
saving vast amounts of time.
When combined with cloud-com-puting
it allows over a million sce-narios
to be executed in a day, and
the huge amounts of data are then
automatically processed so that
the maximum value and insights
can be gained from all activities.
For any test that involves simula-tion
of the system under test and/or
a virtual environment, proof must
also be provided that the virtualized
parts represent the real world with
sufficient accuracy. Our suite of so-lutions
supports the correlation of
the data gained in the real world
with the data generated through
simulation, by using mobile test-ing
tools or ground-truth measure-ment
systems. And to make things
easier, it also includes test and da-ta
management functionality to en-sure
that test planning effort is re-duced,
result analysis according to
KPIs is simple, and the resulting
data delivers the maximum value.
OPEN TO THE UNKNOWN
With conventional vehicles there
have always been earlier technol-ogies
upon which to set the new
standards, both in terms of techno-logical
innovation and global legis-lation.
But with assistance and au-tomated
technologies the industry
is stepping into a new automotive
era, much of which is still unknown.
Development, therefore, must em-brace
a rigorous philosophy of
openness that can tackle the things
we know, the known unknowns,
and the unknown unknowns.
