Claim 0:
1. A computing system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more memory resources storing instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to cause the computing system to:
receive a new unverified software version that relates to operation of autonomous vehicles;
generate a simulation for pre-certifying the new unverified software version, wherein the simulation is generated using a previous verified software version and real-world log data from at least one of the autonomous vehicles,
wherein the real-world log data comprises at least one of: (i) recorded sensor data, (ii) telemetry data, or (iii) diagnostic data obtained while the at least one autonomous vehicle implemented the previous verified software version;
execute one or more implementations of the simulation for the new unverified software version; and
pre-certify the new unverified software version for execution on the autonomous vehicles by verifying outputs of the new unverified software version against a comparative simulation of a human driver.
