	https://date26date-conference.com/programme#FS09\n\n\nThe design of 
	embedded safety-critical systems such as those used in next-generation 
	automotive and autonomous platforms, is increasingly challenged by 
	escalating system complexity, hardware–software heterogeneity, and the 
	integration of intelligent, data-driven components. Ensuring dependability 
	in such systems requires a holistic approach that spans multiple 
	abstraction layers and encompasses both design-time and run-time 
	assurance. Traditional methods for reliability, safety, and security 
	management often fall short in addressing the dynamic and uncertain 
	behaviors introduced by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning 
	(ML) components, especially under stringent real-time, power, and safety 
	constraints. While AI and ML offer powerful predictive, adaptive, and 
	self-optimizing capabilities that can enhance system dependability, their 
	inherent non-determinism, data-dependence, and lack of formal guarantees 
	introduce new challenges for verification, validation, and certification. 
	This session will explore emerging methodologies, architectures, and 
	frameworks for designing dependable autonomous and embedded systems in the 
	era of AI. It will highlight advances in reliability modeling, secure 
	system design, and certification approaches that account for imperfect, 
	learning-enabled components, aiming to bridge the gap between AI 
	innovation and certifiable system-level dependability.
