  text: 'The rapid development of communication and information technology opens up
    fascinating perspectives, which go far beyond the state of the art in mechatronics:
    mechatronic systems with inherent partial intelligence. These so called self-optimizing
    systems adapt their objectives and behavior autonomously and flexibly to changing
    operating conditions. On the one hand, securing the dependability of such systems
    is challenging due to their complexity and non-deterministic behavior. On the
    other hand, self-optimization can be used to increase the dependability of the
    system during its operation. However, it has to be ensured, that the self-optimization
    works dependable itself. To cope with these challenges, the multi-level dependability
    concept was developed. It enables predictive condition monitoring, influences
    the objectives of the system and determines suitable means to improve the system''s
    dependability during its operation. In this contribution we introduce a procedure
    for the conceptual design of an advanced condition monitoring based on the system''s
    principle solution. The principle solution describes the principal operation mode
    of the system and its desired behavior. It is modeled using the specification
    technique for the domain-spanning description of the principle solution of a self-optimizing
    system and consists of a coherent system of eight partial models (e.g. requirements,
    active structure, system of objectives, behavior, etc.). The partial models are
    analyzed separately in order to derive the components of the multi-level dependability
    concept. In particular, the reliability analysis of the partial model active structure
    is performed to identify the system elements to be monitored and parameters to
    be measured. The principle solution is extended accordingly: e.g. with system
    elements required for the realization of the dependability concept. The advantages
    of the method are shown on the self-optimizing guidance module of a railroad vehicle.'

  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.

  text: New mechatronic systems, called self-optimizing systems, are able to adapt
    their behavior according to environmental, user and system specific influences.
    Self-optimizing systems are complex and due to their non-deterministic behavior
    comprise hidden risks, which cannot be foreseen in the design phase of the system.
    Therefore, this paper presents modifications of the current condition monitoring
    policy, to be able to cope with this new kind of systems. Beside avoiding critical
    situations evoked by self-optimization, the proposed concept uses self-optimization
    to increase the dependability of the system. In this case, the concept is applied
    to the active guidance module of an innovative rail-bound vehicle.
