FMEDA is an acronym for Failure Mode, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis. It is a method developed to predict quantitative failures for each failure mode of a device considering the impact of automatic diagnostics which have become the most common way to achieve high availability and functional safety in smart systems. This webinar provides an introduction to this popular method including FMEDA inputs, process, and results achieved.
In the 1980’s, there was a raging debate in the functional safety committee about redundancy versus diagnostics. Some said functional safety could only be achieved with redundant systems. This was strongly supported by Triple Modular Redundant (2oo3) safety PLC vendors. Others argued that diagnostics would be an equal or better…

Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are being used more and more in products. There is interest in using ML in safety critical systems, but most existing safety standards were not written with ML in mind.
As the functional safety community waits for guidance from standards on using ML in safety critical tasks, exida is developing a ML assessment scheme.
This webinar will provide an overview of exida’s ML assessment scheme and exida’s planned ML service offerings.

New product development procedures are created to optimize tradeoffs including time to market, design quality, and schedule. These tradeoffs are tough, even in designs for critical systems where design quality is required for functional safety and cybersecurity compliance. New methods and new tools can make these tradeoffs easier. This webinar describes an example development process and show how the OEMx tool set is used to improve design quality and reduce engineering time.
