Reliability Under the Hood: How We Design Safety Through Non-Functional Requirements

In the world of automotive development, functionality is just the tip of the iceberg. True reliability, safety, and user trust are built on non-functional requirements: response time, fault tolerance, data security, and predictable behavior under extreme conditions. 

In this talk, I’ll share how our team develops an automotive security gateway - where a 10 ms delay can lead to a critical situation, and a message processing failure can compromise the entire CAN network. 

You’ll learn how we identify, specify, and verify non-functional requirements, integrate them into analysis and development workflows, and how they help us meet safety expectations defined by industry standards such as ISO 26262.
