Automotive system design demands for new solutions for management of complexity and heterogeneity. Heterogeneity in automotive systems does not only cover different physical domains that are combined in a complex system. Heterogeneity in automotive systems also means optimized, proprietary solutions and interfaces. The fact that many tiers are involved, and many configurations have to be maintained is an increasing challenge. This chapter gives an overview of an approach to hide the heterogeneity behind a common and unique interface: AUTOSAR.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
