text: Recent advances in information processing enable new kinds of technical systems,
called self-optimizing systems. These systems are able to adapt their objectives
and their behavior according to the current situation and influences autonomously.
This behavior adaptation is non-deterministic and hence self-optimization is a
risk to the system, e.g. if the result of the self-optimization process does not
match the suddenly changed situation. In contrary, self-optimization could be
used to increase the dependability by pursuing objectives like reliability and
availability. In our preceding publications we introduced the so called multi-level
dependability concept to cope with this new kind of systems (cf. [6]). This concept
comprises the monitoring of the system behavior, the classification of the current
situation, and the selection of the appropriate measure, if reliability limits
are exceeded. In this paper we present for the first time experimental results.
The dependability concept is implemented in the self-optimizing active guidance
system of a railway vehicle. The test drives illustrate clearly that the proposed
concept is able to cope with, e.g., sensor failures, and is able to increase the
reliability and availability of the active guidance module.

text: Self-optimizing mechatronic systems are a new class of technical systems.
On the one hand, new challenges regarding dependability arise from their additional
complexity and adaptivity. On the other hand, their abilities enable new concepts
and methods to improve the dependability of mechatronic systems. This paper introduces
a multi-level dependability concept for self-optimizing mechatronic systems and
shows how planning can be used to improve the availability and reliability of
systems in the operating stages.
