Abstract: Mechatronic automotive systems are hybrid systems. Modelling and simulation of the interactions between continuous and discrete parts is essential to evaluate dependability. In this paper we show how a simple mechatronic system can be modelled in the CPN formalism. Quantitative dependability evaluation is obtained thanks to Monte-Carlo simulation. We use the DesignCPN Occurrence Graph tool to validate the model and make a qualitative analysis of the system.
