Abstract:
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 selfoptimizing mechatronic systems and shows how probabilistic planning can be used to improve the availability and reliability of systems in the operating phase. The general idea to improve the availability of autonomous systems by applying probabilistic planning methods to avoid energy shortages is exemplified on the example of an innovative railway vehicle.
