The overall aim of this work is to devise a co-simulation environment for AV certification and control with well-defined requirements and standards. The objective of this work is twofold: (1) We will create an environment supporting seamless transitions from lab testing over development in a hybrid environment, part lab part physical, to fully deployed AV road testing. (2) We will systematically identify minimum requirements and testing scenarios for lab, hybrid, and entirely physically deployed AVs that not only support the development cycles but also facilitate AV certification.
