Abstract

A method for executing a safety-critical function of a computing unit in a cyber-physical system, a request being received for the execution of the safety-critical function, an environment-specific and/or user-specific measurement value being acquired by at least one sensor of the computing unit, the environment-specific measurement value describing an environment of the computing unit, the user-specific measurement value describing an interaction of a user with the computing unit, the safety-critical function being executed if the environment-specific and/or the user-specific measurement value fulfills a specified criterion.
