Rapid development processes and higher customer requirements lead to increasing integration of software solutions in the automotive industry’s products. Today, several electronic control units communicate by bus systems like CAN and provide computation of complex algorithms. This increasingly requires a controlled timing behavior. The following diploma thesis investigates how the timing analysis tool SymTA/S can be used in the software development process of the ZF Friedrichshafen AG.Within the scope of several scenarios, the benefits of using it, the difficulties in using it and the questions that can not be answered by the timing analysis tool are examined
