The Latin-American Workshop on Safe and Secure Vehicles (SSV) is a forum to bring together researchers and practitioners of computing systems designed to support automotive applications. The main objective of the Workshop is to provide greater visibility to research and engineering work in the area and bring together people with academic and experimental background on the design of such systems. Such a discussion forum favors exchange between researchers, students and enthusiasts and encourages cooperation between these agents through the implementation of joint activities and sharing experiences.

Scope

Over the past two decades, vehicles have evolved into complex distributed systems on wheels. Even the most basic models now incorporate numerous Electronic Control Units (ECUs) that are interconnected through various networks. During this time, artificial intelligence has increasingly become integrated into automobiles in a variety of applications, including optimizing fuel efficiency, implementing Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), and the emergence of the first wave of fully autonomous vehicle prototypes. Emerging communication technologies like 5G and IEEE 802.11p are facilitating connectivity between vehicles and enabling communication with a wide array of other systems globally. In this dynamic landscape, the imperative to maintain seamless, fail-safe, secure, and efficient vehicle operations presents a formidable challenge that paves the way for continuous research and development.
