Abstract

The automotive industry has undergone a profound transformation, evolving into a software-intensive landscape with a focus on automated and connected driving technologies. This paradigm shift presents new challenges and opportunities in the realm of safety. This talk will explore how safety requirements and their elicitation are evolving to meet the demands of automated and connected driving, with a spotlight on the role of open-source software development in shaping the future of automotive software. The talk will focus on a few dimensions of software engineering in the context of automotive systems.

Another data-intensive system is continental scale telescopes that use radiowaves to unravel mysteries of extra-terrestrial objects. The talk will also give a brief overview of the opportunities for software and system engineering in radio astronomy.

The Speaker is a software and system engineering researcher at the R&D department of ASTRON, the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy. He is also an adjunct researcher in the Software Engineering and Technology group at Eindhoven University of Technology.
