Key topics to discuss:

  • ASPICE plug-in concept for engineering processes.
  • Overview of the HWE processes.
  • Showing the changes to the other engineering processes made to encompass HWE into the ASPICE v4.0.
  • Description on the impact that HWE has on non-engineering processes and how this is implemented in ASPICE v4.0.
