Course Outline

Introduction to SOTIF and ISO/PAS 21448:2019

  • Historical context and evolution of the standard
  • Comparative overview of ISO 26262 and ISO/PAS 21448
  • Defining the scope and objectives of SOTIF

Key Concepts and Definitions

  • Core principles of Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF)
  • Distinguishing between functional safety and SOTIF
  • Defining key terms: Hazard, Triggering Events, Safe State, and Unsafe State

SOTIF Process and Framework Overview

  • Phases of the SOTIF life cycle
  • Interplay between hazard analysis and risk assessment (HARA)
  • Principles of controllability and situational awareness

Identifying and Classifying Hazards

  • Common hazards in ADAS and automated driving contexts
  • Practical examples of functional insufficiencies
  • Triggering events observed in real-world environments

Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA)

  • Methodologies for risk identification and evaluation
  • Strategies for managing unknown and foreseeable hazards
  • Selecting effective risk reduction measures

Design and Implementation for SOTIF Compliance

  • System architecture oriented towards safety
  • Considerations for software and hardware development
  • Embedding safety requirements into early design phases

Verification and Validation Techniques

  • Testing approaches: simulation, on-road trials, and field operations
  • Methods for detecting systematic and random failures
  • Validating intended functionality under edge-case conditions

Monitoring and Continuous Improvement

  • Techniques for real-time safety system monitoring
  • Leveraging field data for iterative refinement
  • Strategies for maintaining safety post-deployment

Documentation and Reporting Requirements

  • Standards for documenting the SOTIF process
  • Essential deliverables: Safety plan, safety case, and hazard reports
  • Stakeholder communication and regulatory alignment

SOTIF in Practice: Case Studies and Best Practices

  • Analysis of SOTIF implementations in ADAS and autonomous systems
  • Insights gained from safety-critical incidents
  • Best practices for sustaining SOTIF compliance

Future Trends and the Role of SOTIF in Autonomous Vehicles
