With the growing number of electronic systems, broadening function range and ever increasing interaction complexity in modern vehicles, the validation and calibration of new software functions becomes more and more challenging. The expenditures associated with this rising complexity are further increased due to growing number of vehicle variants that are adapted to regional markets. This conflicts with the ever present cost pressure in the overall automotive industry to reduce both production and development costs. Performing the most costly tasks of the development earlier in the process, using simulation on the PC, CAD or validation in virtual environment is a promising approach in order to face these challenges.
