Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to show how starting from the customer specifications the basic methodologies of software development have been applied to the realizations of two ATE (Automatic Testing Equipments) for the functional verification and validation of two automotive devices with specific complex constraints in the functional and real time domains, with body/comfort and HMI functionalities.
The problems of formal accuracy and exactness of notation present in the software development cycle that may affect the correct functional and real time behaviour of the resulting target system will be analyzed. It is then described which were the general purposes and features identified as necessary for the construction of the two ATE’s, that led to the definition of the hardware and software solutions. Finally, the technical characteristics of the machines resulting from this study are described in two separate paragraphs, were is evident how devices from different domain led to different solutions.
