“…For example, heavy-ion fault injection has shown fail-silence violations [19] in TTP/C and error propagation in FlexRay [21]. Software-implemented fault-injection has been used to evaluate the dependability of the software architecture in automotive systems [22], [23].…”

Modern vehicles with semi-autonomous (driverassistance systems) and autonomous capabilities require sophisticated on-board and off-board diagnostics for safe operation, and to reduce unnecessary component replacements at the service garage. We present a diagnostic approach that strategically fuses different sources of instrumentation available in a time-triggered automotive network (FlexRay) for vehicle control, and learns patterns or signatures of different faults. These patterns ease the classification of faults during runtime or in the service garage. We evaluate our approach through fault-injection experiments on an automotive testbench, and demonstrate that by fusing different sources of instrumentation we can diagnose protocol-level and physical faults with over 98% accuracy. We also show that our approach is applicable across different network topologies.

Standardized software architectures, such as AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture (AUTOSAR), are being pursued within the automotive industry in order to reduce the cost of developing new vehicle features. Many of these features will need to be highly dependable. Fault injection plays an im portant role during the dependability analysis of such soft ware. This work evaluates the feasibility of leveraging the CANoe simulation environment to develop software-based methods for injecting faults into AUTOSAR applications. We describe a proof-of-concept fault-injection framework with example fault-injection scenarios, as well as imple mentation issues faced and addressed, lessons learned, and the suitability of using CANoe as a fault-injection environ ment.

“…Start-up and integration logic are particularly vulnerable, since joining or starting nodes are often required to pick up protocol state information from other nodes of the system. Agreement and consistency services implemented within the protocol layers may also introduce failure vulnerabilities [16].…”

The FlexRay field bus has potential for integrating existing networks and as a shared local sub-system network in the next generation of airplanes -leveraging a low-cost, dependable bus designed for the automotive domain. Herein, we present an overview of FlexRay and investigate FlexRay's dependability for use as a field bus in the aerospace domain. FlexRay supports all major requirements for integrating systems on a single network, if controllers are deployed with a guardian to achieve good hardware fault coverage. Despite including a guardian, some vulnerability may remain, such as software-induced failures and physical layer properties.
