The rapid evolution of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and software-defined vehicles (SDVs) architecture is reshaping the global automotive landscape. With emerging OEMs driving innovation in urban ADAS L2 solutions, the focus has shifted to scalability, central compute architectures and end-to-end software stacks. To meet increasing demands for safety and regulation, an integrated simulation and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approach enables faster time-to-market. This presentation will show how seamless simulation workflows from system to component and scenario-based validation on the cloud allows users to 'shift left' regulation and safety assessment.

• The role of simulation in enabling a safety-driven MBSE development process
• Industry best practices for addressing regulatory, homologation and rating requirements via scenario-based simulation
• The importance of a robust tiered supplier ecosystem in building simulation credibility and trust
• Leveraging high-fidelity simulation to validate end-to-end software across large operational design domains (ODDs)
