Trust in virtual
Homologation relies not only on the transparency of the Simulation process, but also on the quality of the underlying models, frameworks, and related tools. While several initiatives and research projects, such as prostep IVIP, INTACS, SetLEVEL, EVIDENT, and HAIViSH, have advanced the discussion on credibility, there remains a critical gap: no standardized metrics exist to assess the quality of Simulation frameworks and models, particularly in sensor Simulation. Vehicle dynamics models are a rare exception, with established quality criteria documented. At the same time, the market for Simulation solutions in ADAS/AD development is broad and diverse, making it difficult for users to identify the right tools for their needs or compare them objectively. This proposal aims to close that gap by defining a standardized, machine-readable data format for describing tool offerings and requirements, supported by an agreed set of quality metrics.
The goal of this project is to develop a new standardized, machine-readable data format for storing and exchanging quality metrics for
Simulation frameworks and models. The scope also includes defining an agreed, use-case–specific weighting of the respective metrics to emphasize features relevant to particular tasks.
ASAM QSQ aims at:
The project will not rank tools or market offerings. Instead, it will provide a foundation for trust, comparability, and credibility in
Simulation. Users may include tool vendors (describing offerings), tool users (defining requirements), and authorities (setting minimum acceptance criteria).
