Highest compliance requirements due to safety-critical nature and emissions regulations.
Key Focus Areas:
- Real-time constraints and timing predictability
- Sensor data validation and range checking
- Fail-safe behaviour implementation
- ISO 26262 functional safety integration
Moderate compliance requirements with emphasis on robustness rather than safety-critical behaviour.
Practical Approach:
- Focus on memory management and data integrity
- Implement graceful degradation for non-critical failures
- Prioritise user experience over perfect compliance
Selective compliance focusing on security and data protection rather than traditional safety requirements.
Modern Considerations:
- Cybersecurity implications of connected systems
- Data privacy requirements under UK GDPR
- Integration with non-automotive software ecosystems
