Abstract
The safe and secure implementation of increasingly complex features is a major challenge in the development of autonomous and distributed embedded systems. Automated design-time procedures that guarantee the fulfillment of critical system properties are a promising approach to tackle this challenge. In the European project XANDAR, which took place from 2021 to 2023, eight partners developed an X-by-Construction (XbC) design framework to support developers in the creation of embedded software systems with certain safety, security, and real-time properties. The design framework combines a model-based toolchain with a hypervisor-based runtime architecture. It targets modern high-performance hardware, facilitates the integration of machine learning applications, and employs a library of trusted safety and security patterns to reduce the implementation and verification effort. This paper describes the concepts developed during the project, the prototypical implementation of the design framework, and its application in both an automotive and an avionics use case.
