@inproceedings{9573, abstract = {{Integrating dependability in self-optimizing systems is a challenging task. Self-optimizing systems incorporate on the one hand the opportunity to apply novel solutions to complex mechatronic systems, but on the other hand constitute a possible risk because of non-determined behavior. The dependability concept in this paper covers both aspects: Increasing safety with selfoptimization and minimizing the risk of self-optimization. This dependability concept is combined with the self-optimization process of the active guidance module which is currently under development at the Collaborative Research Center 614 at the University of Paderborn.}}, author = {{Sondermann-Wölke, Christoph and Geisler, Jens and Müler, Thomas and Trächtler, Ansgar and Böcker, Joachim}}, booktitle = {{ASME 2008 -- International Design Engineering Technical Conferences \& Computers and Information in Engineering Conference (IDETC/CIE)}}, title = {{{The active guidance module of a rail-bound vehicle as an application for the dependability oriented design in self-optimizing systems}}}, year = {{2008}}, }
