The paper presents an overview of a major research project on dependable embedded systems that has started in Fall 2010 and is running for a projected duration of six years. Aim is a 'dependability co-design' that spans various levels of abstraction in the design process of embedded systems starting from gate level through operating system, applications software to system architecture. In addition, we present a new classification on faults, errors, and failures.
