| Agile safety case for vehicle trial operations |
|---|
| In the last years, there has been an increase in agile development methods when developing safety-critical software. This approach fits well with the incremental improvement of autonomous vehicles, incremental expansion of the operational design domain, and new intelligent roadside units. There have to be new trials of self-driving vehicles in the years to come due to the expected improvements in the vehicles and intelligent roadside units. Therefore, it is essential that the process, including needed evidence for a safety case, is both agile and standardized to ensure confidence and trust by all parties involved. This paper shows how the trial operator can develop an Agile safety case for vehicle trial operations to ensure frequent updates based on: • The agile safety case • ISO 22737:2021 Low-speed automated driving • BSI PAS 1881:2020 "Assuring the safety of automated vehicle trials and testing - specification" standard • The BSI PAS 1883:2020 "Operational design domain (ODD) taxonomy for an automated driving system (ADS) - Specification" standard. The agile development approach enables the approval of safety to be done by the manufacture and operator in parallel with development. Through our more than a hundred safety case-related projects (mainly railway domain), we have also seen that a safety case approach results in increased safety awareness, confidence, and understanding of the safety challenges among the software developers and project engineers. |
