Quality assurance of the software in the car with Automotive SPICE 3.0 – Heise Newsticker

 quality & # XE4; f & # xFC assurance; r software was> </strong> <strong> Automotive SPICE </strong> <sup> ® </sup> <strong> 3.0 in July this – in the car with Automotive SPICE 3.0 “/> </span> <! - RSPEAK_START year published by the Working Group 13 of the VDA (German Association of the Automotive Industry). Great expectations have been placed on this new major release. But what is it really new? For whom is the new version is a big change? Or maybe much remains the same?  </Strong> </strong> </p>  <p> Since the beginning of this millennium, more software is increasingly built into our cars. That was and is for the carmaker a challenge – especially since most software does not come from the manufacturer itself, but from suppliers. This prompted the HIS (Manufacturer Initiative Software) of the German automobile manufacturers (Audi, BMW, Daimler, Porsche and Volkswagen) at the beginning of the last decade, to agree on a maturity model for software development with which they assess the development processes of suppliers and improve can. </p>  <p> The choice fell on the ISO / IEC 15504, also known under the project name SPICE (Software Process Improvement and Capability determination). This standard defines a general-purpose model for process evaluation and allows, among other things the creation of industry-specific derivations. The HIS-companies along with other manufacturers such as Jaguar / Land Rover, Ford, Fiat and Volvo set to work to define Automotive SPICE <sup> ® </sup> along the lines of ISO / IEC 15504th This group has published several versions in the years 2005 to 2010 the last version 2.5 of the Process Assessment Model (PAM). Meanwhile, the Working Group 13 of the VDA takes care of the development. This working group includes today beside the manufacturers to also suppliers like Bosch, Continental, Knorr-Bremse and ZF. </P>  <p> Once the ISO has begun (International Organization for Standardization) in November, 2013, the ISO / IEC 15504 by the . ISO / IEC 330xx-series replace, was everyone excited about what would change in Automotive SPICE <sup> ® </sup> 3.0 </p>  <h3 class = From old to new – from the ISO / IEC 15504 to ISO / IEC 330xx

In March 2015, the parts 2 and 7 of the ISO / IEC 15504 have been overridden (Fig. 1). They described, inter alia, as a judgment in general or for an organization is to take place. In the new series of standards is on these issues now in the publications ISO / IEC 33001, 33002, 33003, 33004 and 33020 received (Fig. 2).

This is the most important new features is a new definition of process attributes and the generic practices for the maturity levels 4 and 5. Since assessments are almost exclusively limited to the automotive industry to the project level to Level 3, which is expected to initially have no major impact

In addition, allows the new ISO / IEC 33020 is a more detailed rating rating “Partially Achieved” (partially achieved) and “Largely Achieved” (largely achieved) (Fig. 3). Instead of four unevenly distributed gradations (0-15% (N), & gt; 15-50% (P) & gt; 50-85% (L), & gt; 85-100% (F)) are now six largely evenly distributed steps emerged. It remains to be seen whether this detail optional applicable against the familiar and proven scheme will prevail.
