Course Outline

Introduction to SOTIF and ISO/PAS 21448:2019

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

Foundational Concepts and Terminology

  • Understanding Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF)
  • Distinguishing between functional safety and SOTIF
  • Key terms: Hazard, Triggering Events, Safe State, and Unsafe State

SOTIF Process and Framework Structure

  • The various stages of the SOTIF life cycle
  • The interplay between hazard analysis and risk assessment (HARA)
  • Principles of controllability and situational awareness

Identification and Classification of Hazards

  • Hazards specific to ADAS and automated driving
  • Case studies illustrating functional insufficiencies
  • Real-world scenarios of triggering events

Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA)

  • Methodologies for identifying and assessing risks
  • Managing known, unknown, and foreseeable hazards
  • Selecting effective risk reduction measures

Designing and Implementing for SOTIF Compliance

  • System architecture centered on safety priorities
  • Considerations for software and hardware development
  • Embedding safety requirements into the design phase

Verification and Validation Strategies

  • Testing approaches: simulation, on-road trials, and field operations
  • Detection methods for systematic and random failures
  • Validating intended functionality in edge cases

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 Standards

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

Practical Application: 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 Trajectories and SOTIF in Autonomous Vehicles

  • The progression of standards and regulatory frameworks
  • Emerging trends in autonomous driving and safety tech
  • Interactions with other standards (ISO 26262, UNECE WP.29)
