System- und Funktionale Sicherheit

What it is about

You will learn to describe, abstract, and delineate systems (products or processes) from their surroundings in such a way that potential system failures can be identified and evaluated. In the end you will be able to analyze hazards, assess risks, and derive appropriate measures for system and functional safety.

What you will be able to do

• Describe systems (processes and products)
• Create functional architecture and abstract systems
• Apply methods of fault detection and risk assessment
• Predict and prioritise fault possibilities
• Develop mitigation measures
• Name important standards of system and functional safety
• Assess applicability of various risk detection and assessment methods

What the module consists of

• Lecture with integrated exercisesConveying the contents, deepening through practical examples and lecture-accompanying case exercises in groups

Teaching method

• Frontal teaching multimedia-supportedIntroduction and explanation of concepts with presentations, board notes and models
• Group work on case exercisesApplication and deepening based on domain-specific problems in small groups
