An objective of the Automated Highway System (AHS) is a system that will be accident-free in the absence of malfunctions. The purpose of the malfunction management and analysis effort was to identify strategies of managing AHS malfunctions, and to identify issues and risks associated with implementing these strategies. In addition measures of effectiveness have been identified which could be used to evaluate and to optimize various malfunction management strategies. The Malfunction Management and Analysis issues addressed in this activity area were: Functional analysis to define normal operations. Identification and categorization of potential malfunctions. Investigation of malfunction detection techniques. Definition of MOEs to rate malfunction severity. Definition of MOEs to rate malfunction responses. Development of malfunction management strategies.
