  A major objective of the CESAR Reference Technology Platform (RTP) is the ability to integrate methods, tools and process in a technology independent way. In order to achieve this objective a few key concepts must be specified: • RTP High Level Architecture • RTP Interoperability Specification • RTP Customization • RTP Quality and Assurance Processes. This talk will cover all these concepts with a special focus on the RTP Interoperability Specification (IOS). The IOS guarantees the sustainable impact of the RTP. Whereas different RTP instances may use use different technologies (like ModelBus, JAZZ, etc.) the IOS is the glue between them. This talk will explain the structure of the IOS, the relationship to existing approaches and will give an outlook to the MBAT project, which will re-use the CESAR IOS.

  The different industrial domains addressed by CESAR have common basic requirements against the use of the CESAR RTP, however many differences exist in terms of practices, tools, applicable standards. The need arises for a customisation of the RTP that makes available only the material (tools, guidance...) that is really needed during the day-by-day work on the project. Concerning the process customisation, a component-based approach is proposed based on the “situational method engineering” discipline. From the technical point of view, the implementation of the approach is based on standard semi-formal languages (SPEM and BPMN) and a tool set including Open Source options. Finally, the detailed work-flow implied by customization is discussed.

  We present a contract-based approach to systems engineering for safety relevant systems, and demonstrate how contracts are instrumental in reducing integration errors and supporting the OEM/supplier relationship. Contracts are firmly anchored as a concept in the CoreMetamodel of the ARTEMIS project CESAR, and have been initially proposed in the Integrated Project Speeds. The talk concludes by summarizing industrial evaluation results from Speeds end users.

  For the development of safety related systems requirements engineering is an important discipline. In particular concepts and methods for traceability issues as well as for analysis with respect to consistency, completeness, and correctness of requirements are important topics. We will present the CESAR approach based on formalized requirements.

  The presentation will reflect on some important requirements on tool chains used for the development of safety-relevant systems. The talk will in particular present the CESAR Reference Technology Platform (RTP). The RTP represents a conglomerate of entities, which facilitate the creation of integrated development environments for the development of safety-relevant embedded systems for various domains. One of the components of the RTP, the RTP-ModelBus, will be presented in more detail. Its architecture and its interoperability concepts will be discussed and compared with other available technologies. The talk will be supported by illustrative examples.

  The presentation will explain a concrete tool chain (RTP-Instance) for development of safety-relevant embedded systems. This presentation is based on the first one and is a concrete usage scenario developed in CESAR project where an automotive function for hybrid vehicles (recuperation mode) is developed. The model-based approach is based on the EAST-ADL, which allows the formalization of domain-specific engineering information and thereby brings a potential for a wide range of benefits for system design and reuse, integration and configuration management, model transformation and tool interoperation, design-space exploration and multi-domain optimization etc. This seamless modeling approach will constitute a basis for an integrated tool chain for improving the development of safety-relevant automotive embedded systems.

  One of the major challenges that companies face in rolling out an integrated systems engineering process is the implementation of an integrated tool change. Projects like CESAR-RTP address these issues by assembling a receference platform integrating heterogenous tools by using technologies like a model-bus. This provides tool integration of the currently deployed tools, but requires high effort because of the different tool architectures and technologies. Several project try to move one step ahead and create an even tighter tool integration based on a common application platform. Boeing published a open source platform called "OSEE"; the Eclipse Modeling Working Group serves as a community for several companies to create a common platform for model based system development and the development communities Artop and Eclipse Automotive Industry Working Groups serve as a community for OEMs and 1-tiers to coordinate activities. In France, the Topcased and OPEES initiatives are well-received. Aside from the technology advancement there is also change in business model: Companies move away from closed products into cooperations on platforms, adding specific functions with customer value on top. This talk introduces the results and perspectives of these projects and relates customer-project experiences with these projects.
