Presentation

An incident management approach by the usage of effect chains

Advanced AVs for SAE L3/L4 functions will lead to a new understanding of the operation phase in the product lifecycle. The regulation like the EU Implementing Act and the German L4 act (AFGBV) request also a continuous field surveillance, the handling of critical E/E faults and SW updates during operation. This is required to enhance the ODD during operation, offering Function on demands (FoD) and to reduce downtime by a SW stack E/E malfunction. The handling of incident/accidents, caused by E/E malfunctions, will require a minimal “time-of-action” to analyse the root cause, supported by the visualization of the effect chain.
