Cyber Organic System-Model – New Approach for Automotives System Design

Modern vehicles are characterized by multiple systems to represent customer functions. The steady increase of these functions leads to an increasing system complexity. This paper describes a structured approach to master better the complexity for future E/E (Electric and Electronic) systems. The new approach is based on a combination of two existing system models. The first system model is based on a cybernetic perspective for a management model for an electrical energy electrical system. The second system model is based on the work of the section "Organic Computing" of the "Gesellschaft der Informatik e.V.". In addition, principles were taken from the human body to design this system approach. Based on these, the Cyber Organic System (COS) model is proposed for use in automotive E/E systems. Also, this model focus the distribution of the overall function to the 3C locations. In the end of this paper, the use of this model in automotive environment will be outlined on the basis of examples.     «
