More than ever, microcontroller performance in cars has a direct impact on the driving experience, on compliance with improved safety, ever-stricter emissions regulations, and on fuel economy. The sim....
This paper proposes a methodology for modeling both functional and non-functional requirements based on aspect-oriented modeling, and analyzing multiple non-orthogonal aspects across systems. Applying....
Configuration management of products containing software with complex interrelationships is a challenge for the automotive industry. Configurations are usually addressed through hierarchical product s....
Software has become the driving force behind innovation in the automotive industry. According to a recent Frost & Sullivan market research report, “Strategic Analysis of the European Market for Softwa....
The development of embedded control systems is still a relatively new and young discipline. There is consequently a lack of tools, methods and models to support, in particular, the early architectural....
This paper will first introduce and classify the basic principles of architecture-driven software development and will briefly sketch the presumed development process. This background information is t....
This paper examines state-of-the-art quality assurance (QA) techniques for model-based software development in the automotive domain. Both the aims and effort required to apply a certain method are di....
Model-based design and development is emerging in the automotive industry, largely revealing its popularity in chassis control systems [1]. Although it is an efficient and accepted design tool for cha....
Today, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation is common practice as a testing methodology for electronic control units (ECUs). An essential criterion for the efficiency of an HIL system is the availabi....
Model-based approaches can improve quality and reduce cycle time by simulating the models to perform early validation of requirements. These approaches can provide automated validation techniques by g....
