SYNOPSIS is targeting increased efficiency and reduced time-to-market by composable safety certification of safety-relevant embedded systems. The fundamental approach is built upon new disciplinary research in component contracts, parameterized verification, and behavioural interference analysis, together with system-oriented research on safety case argumentations, co-development processes and provision of evidences based on testing of system robustness. The resulting efficiency and reduced time to market will increase competitiveness and pave the way for a cross-domain market for software components qualified for certification.

The industrial domains targeted are within heavy-vehicles, construction equipment, avionics, and rail, and suitable use cases from industrial partners will form the backbone of the demonstrator planned.
