Use of Formal Methods for verification and optimization of Fault Lists in the scope of ISO26262

This work aims at an alternative method to verify the correctness of Fault Lists generated by fault simulators tools in context of safety verification. The lists generated by simulation tools are verified against lists from formal tools. The consistency evaluation between the lists supports the Tool Confidence Level (TCL) assessment, defined in...

Combining Fault Analysis Technologies for ISO26262 Functional Safety Verification

The development of Integrated Circuits for the Automotive sector imposes on complex challenges. ISO26262 Functional Safety requirements entail extensive Fault Injection campaigns and complex analysis for the evaluation of deployed Software Tools. This paper proposes a methodology to improve Fault Analysis Tools Confidence Level (TCL) by...

Determined-Safe Faults Identification: A step towards ISO26262 hardware compliant designs

The development of Integrated Circuits for the Automotive sector imposes on major challenges. ISO26262 compliance, as part of this process, entails complex analysis for the evaluation of potential random hardware faults. This paper proposes a systematic approach to identify faults that do not disrupt safety-critical functionalities and...
