The Virtual Institute Design of Safety-Critical Automotive Systems strives for introducing a human-centred design process for the development of advanced assistance systems for land-based vehicles. The main goal is the integration of the heterogeneous design streams human factors, safety measures, and functional development and architecture within one single design process which provides a dynamic balance between formally founded and agile development activities. A common ontology ensures synergistic cooperation between the interdisciplinary parts of the development process. Keywords: advanced driver assistance systems, human-centred design process, functional development and architecture, safety, ontology.
