Abstract
ISO 26262 changes vehicle development in a way, nobody would have expected 10 years ago, when functional safety became a relevant topic in the automobile industry. During the early 21st century the first German (VDA) working group already started dealing with functional safety and when the first international working groups got founded in 2005 everybody was looking for a lean standard for product safety. In the following 10 years before the final publication of the ISO 26262, those working groups compiled 10 parts with about 1000 requirements.
