Developing software for automotive applications is a challenging task. To stay competitive conflicting goals must be met: complex and innovative algorithms with many versions for different car line variants have to be implemented within the tight resource boundaries of embedded systems; high reliability especially for safety critical applications like airbag or braking applications has to be ensured under immense cost pressure. Despite these demanding constraints in recent years automotive software development has made significant progress in terms of productivity and quality. All this has been achieved without direct usage of formal methods.
