Software Engineering in Ferrari F1

Summary form only given. The software and hardware development in Ferrari F1 is characterized by a very short cycle time. Typically during the in-season development, the fixes and new developments need to be addressed in few days, in order to be ready for the following race. At the same time the hardware, like new electronic control units or new devices need to be developed from one year to the other. In this scenario the validation procedures are very critical, because of the need to achieve the same results in a shorter time.
