Combining Embedded Software Development, Reliability and Functional Safety Assessments in One Workflow
的电气化汽车、航空航天和healthcare products offers customers more functionality, safety features and reliability. However, electrification initiatives can complicate development cycles. This complexity makes it difficult for engineers to optimize the embedded software and functional safety of their products.
For instance, engineers need to ensure that the embedded software running the rearview camera coordinates with the embedded software running the antilock braking system in an emergency situation.

Traditionally, disparate teams work on the embedded software development, performance reliability and functional safety of these electrification initiatives. This siloed product development approach can lead to lost information and last-minute redesigns. As a result, siloed product development teams will have a hard time meeting deadlines and maintaining the trackability and documentation needed for product certifications.
To address these challenges, Ansys andJama Softwarehave partnered together to offer tools that help development teams collaborate on the development, reliability and functional safety of their products.
How Collaboration Improves Functional Safety and Embedded Software Workflows
Product development teams can useJama Connectto manage the regulatory requirement workflow.
First, the quality and safety analyses requirements are determined withinAnsys SCADEorAnsys medini analyze. These requirements are then passed onto Jama Connect where development teams can ensure they are met.
Since teams are working in a single workflow, they are better able to pass information, collaborate and get products to market faster.

The added communication increases the likelihood that errors will be flagged and corrected earlier in development — saving time and development costs.
Jama Connect also updates design changes automatically. This improves audit trails, documentation and certification processes.
