Følgende prosjektsammendrag er hentet fra Technical Annex: The embedded safety-critical systems design and development industry is facing increasing complexity and variety of systems and devices, coupled with increasing regulatory constraints while costs , performances and time to market are constantly challenged. This has led to a profusion of enablers (new processes, methods and tools), which are neither integrated nor interoperable because they have been developed more or less independently, addressin g only a part of the complexity issue, such as safety. The absence of internationally recognized open standards is a limiting factor in terms of industrial performance when companies have to select among these enablers. CESAR will bring significant and c onclusive innovations in the two most improvable systems engineering disciplines: - Requirements engineering in particular through formalization of multi viewpoint and multi criteria requirements, - Component based engineering applied to design space ex ploration comprising multiview/ multi-criteria architecture trade-offs. In addition CESAR intends to provide industrial companies with a breakthrough in system development by deploying a customizable systems engineering ?Reference Technology Platform? (R TP) making it possible to integrate or interoperate existing or emerging available technologies. This will be a significant step forward in terms of industrial performance improvement that will help to establish de-facto standards and contribute to the st andardization effort from a European perspective. Relying on use-cases and scenarios from Aerospace, Automotive, Automation and Railway, CESAR is strongly industry driven. Benefiting from this multi-domains point of views, CESAR addresses safety aspects of transportation and other societal mobility and environmental demands.
