Brief description of the three departments

The DLR Institute of Systems Engineering for Future Mobility is divided into three departments:

Systems Theory and Design

The department Systems Theory and Design (THD) considers all phases of design, development, verification and validation of highly automated and autonomous traffic systems. Methods and tools are developed that enable mechanisms for technical trustworthiness and responsibility, ensure integrity and demonstrate appropriate properties already at the design stage of a system.

System Evolution and Operation

The department System Evolution and Monitoring (EVO) considers all phases during the operation of highly automated and autonomous traffic systems. The focus of this department is on the development of methods and tools that enable a trustworthy evolution of systems and that monitor and ensure compliance with integrity, responsibility and trust measures at system runtime.

Application and Evaluation

The department Application and Evaluation (ANE) identifies application-specific requirements for integrating and ensuring technical trustworthiness, responsibility, and integrity. At the same time, this department provides platforms to evaluate the methods and tools developed in the THD and EVO departments and integrate them into industry-relevant processes. The ANE department contributes these results to standardization and regulatory activities.
