How can functional safety be guaranteed during development?
When developing safety-critical systems, it is essential to guarantee functional safety. For this purpose, various analyses and development artifacts must be created in accordance with the specifications of relevant standards (e.g. IEC 61508, EN 50128, ISO 26262, ISO 25119, ISO 13849). From a tool perspective, this is currently primarily carried out using document processing and spreadsheet tools such as Word and Excel. However, as the complexity of the systems continues to increase, this is reaching its limits, meaning that important properties such as maintainability, traceability and traceability can no longer be guaranteed. Ultimately, this results in problems in terms of efficiency and quality, which at best only costs money and at worst human lives.
