Long-Term Quality of Software
As part of digital lifecycle management, products must be kept up to date throughout their entire period of use and also expanded with additional functionalities.
Ensuring long-term quality commitments / software updates until end-of-life
In this project, the effects on quality in the collaboration between customer and supplier were identified and gaps, areas for action, and challenges were highlighted. Based on the results, a 10-point plan was developed to ensure long-term software quality in lifecycle management between OEMs and suppliers.
Risk factors relating to long-term software quality
Changes in infrastructure, the availability of hardware components, and regulatory requirements necessitate regular maintenance and servicing of products that have been on the market for a long time. The ability to adapt software-based functions extends across the entire product life cycle and relates to organizational and technical aspects. The project identified risk factors that can hinder the necessary adaptability of software-based functions throughout the entire product life cycle. As a result, this project provides a catalog of risk factors with a detailed description of the most important risk factors relating to long-term software quality as a basis for a general risk assessment concept.
Long-term quality of software-intensive systems
Based on the previous project on the effects of collaboration between customers and suppliers in the context of digital lifecycle management, this project developed a system for the series/maintenance phase with regard to software in the automotive industry. A checklist was developed for establishing measures relating to long-term software quality in the automotive industry.
