Verification, validation, configuration

Industrial and everyday products have become ‘intelligent’, inter-connected embedded systems linked with the physical world. They are typically sold in many configurations. Once deployed, they frequently have a long lifetime, during which they need to be updated regularly to meet changes in their operational context including customer usage needs. 

How to verify and validate updates for those many deployed systems and variants? Space and sheer cost prohibit the creation of factory ‘shadow copies’ of possibly hundreds to thousands of customer configurations, just to perform testing. Yet, the trustworthiness and safety of any update to any configuration must be assessed. 

This track reports on novel approaches and methods to cope with V&V of updates for deployed systems, to handle the many configurations and generations. Topics addressed are complexity reduction by virtualization, impact assessment, test selection, separation and protection mechanisms, all placed in context of the increasing embedded intelligence in such systems.

International Digital Enablement Week 2021

Are you working in the high-tech industry, in R&D, in systems engineering or systems architecting? Then you should not miss this event! Over the past decades, the high-tech industry has fully experienced the digitalization of their products and processes. Consequently, innovation in high-tech industry is now largely enabled by digital technologies. Complexity of systems is increasing, and with it the complexity of the system of systems.

Are you interested to know how to deal with your legacy? Would you like to be informed about latest verification and validation strategies? Is systems modeling part of your systems engineering strategy? Is platform-based engineering a concern or a benefit? How to use field data in conjunction with system models and artificial intelligence techniques?  These - and many other - questions will be addressed in a one-week event that will feature a varied program with interactive sessions inspired by contributions of industry and research organizations

Every working day from 13-20 April there will be an on-line event from 14h30-17h30 organized by
ESI (TNO) and its national and international partners High Tech NL, OFFIS/DLR, SERC and TNO.
