Method Library Framework for Safety Standard Compliant Process Tailoring

Abstract

The introduction of the new automotive standard on functional safety ISO 26262 raises different challenges from the process point of view. Hence, a standardized process mapping roles, activities and work products according to ISO 26262 needs to be defined. This process has to be tailored according to the automotive safety integrity level (ASIL) and to company specific practices and teams. In this work, we propose a method content approach modeled with SPEM in order to define and formalize development processes, enabling better management and easier tailoring activities.
