Glossary

.. glossary::
ADAS
Advanced Driving Assistance Systems
AEB
Autonomous Emergency Brake
preventive emergency braking in danger (support or independent launch)
Channel
Connects components within an agent (using unique ID)
Component
A module that is part of an agent's equipment
COG
Center of gravity
Dynamics
Calculation of dynamic parameters, e.g. position of Agent
MinGW
Complete Open Source programming tool set, suitable for the development of native MS-Windows applications.
Model
An abstract representation of a real object which might omit details e.g. ADAS, driving dynamics, pedestrian, environmental conditions. In the PreCASE framework, a model consists of one or more modules as well as channels connecting them.
Module
A dynamic library that is loaded and whose interface functions are called by the framework. Modules contain models or other individual functionality necessary for the simulation. Modules are exchangeable and can be fitted to various purposes ensuring ahigh flexibility of the framework.
MSYS
Collection of GNU utilities (e.g. bash, make, gcc) to allow building of programs which depend on traditionally UNIX tools to be present. It is intended to supplement :term:`MinGW`.
MSYS2
Independent rewrite of :term:`MSYS`, based on Cygwin (POSIX compatibility layer) and MinGW-w64.
OD
openDRIVE
openPASS
Open Platform for Assessment of Safety Systems
OSI
A generic interface for the environmental perception of automated driving functions in virtual scenarios.
PreCASE
Framework for the Simulative Evaluation of Active Safety Systems in Vehicles (OpenPASS predecessor).
Scenario
A set of similar traffic situations.
TTC
Time to collision
