Forschung

Die technisch anspruchsvollen Systeme in der Mobilität gewinnen durch die Entwicklungen zum automatisierten Fahren oder Fliegen weiter an Komplexität. Dies führt dazu, dass der Umfang an Software und KI-Verfahren in den Systemen stark zunimmt und die Betriebszustände umfassender überwacht werden müssen. Um diese steigende Komplexität zu beherrschen und dem sehr hohen Anspruch an Qualität und Zuverlässigkeit gerecht zu werden, sind Methoden des Model-based System Engineering und die Erforschung geeigneter Verfahren zur Modellierung von Systemen, die datenbasierte KI-Komponenten enthalten, notwendig. Diesen Aufgaben an der Schnittstelle zwischen den Ingenieurwissenschaften und der Informatik widmet sich das Model-based Systems Engineering.

• In der Forschung verwenden wir mathematisch präzise Verfahren, um die Korrektheit dieser Systeme sicherzustellen. 
• Wir betrachten das Zusammenspiel aus Mensch, Umwelt und dem darin operierenden System, um eine präzise Idee zu bekommen, was selbst-adaptive und autonome Systeme überhaupt sind. Erst dann sind die Spezifikation, Modellierung und Analyse sinnvoll möglich.

Laufende Forschungsprojekte:

• MANNHEIM-AutoDevSafeOps
