Ever accelerating product cycles together with multi-discipline engineering processes are typical for safety-critical automotive embedded systems development. This demands for both efficient and effective development and reuse strategies. A development process following the V-model incorporating model-driven prototyping and development, safety engineering, and verification (unit testing, integration testing, cosimulation, etc.) is commonly found. Product line engineering enables fast and efficient product configuration through systematic reuse. The V-model has been extended by an integrated product line engineering environment for automotive embedded systems. This ensures the consistent configuration across system architecture description (EAST-ADL2), model driven development (Matlab/Simulink), software component deployment on an ECU network (AUTOSAR-based), Simulink-based software unit testing, Simulink-based software integration testing, and co-simulation model variants. Using the automotive architecture description language EAST-ADL2 enables the integration of safety engineering aspects.
