Electronic automotive requirement design space - a bird\u2019s eye view of a strategic requirement design space exploration

چکیده
The purpose of this article is to make a holistic compilation of many different types of requirements for an automotive electronic communications / control network (though the framework is in itself more generally applicable), and organize them into an easily reusable framework. Requirements have to be correct, consistent and complete. The issue of correctness of the specification should be dealt with formal validation models. The issue of consistency can be handled through domain expert specification reviews. The completeness issue can be dealt with by comparison with a reference, and this paper proposes a metamodel to help with the completeness and strategic consistency issues in the requirement specification process. The requirements framework proposed in this paper aims to answer the question: “What is the requirements design space for an automotive electronic communications network?”, and help in the completeness of the requirements specification through a holistic, multi-perspective, Bird’s Eye View. The main perspectives that will be examined in this requirements design space exploration are four: a) The “Nature of the User” perspective, b) The “Nature of the Application” perspective: Distributed, Real time, Safety-Critical applications, and Resource Constraints requirements, c) The “Nature of the Process Development” perspective, in particular, the component based development (CBD) process of Electronic Subsystem Design within Automotive Companies: component architecting, component assembly and component provisioning, and d) The “Nature of the Industry” is given by the competitive environment: Suppliers, Substitute Products, Substitute Technologies, Competitors, Potential Industy Entrants, the Company and its

Model-Based Consistency Checks of Electric and Electronic Architectures against Requirements
The electric and electronic architecture (EEA), which is built up during the concept phase of automotive electronics development, has fundamental impact on the success of a vehicle under development. The complexity of upcoming architectures requires novel approaches to support system architects during the design phase. This paper describes a model-based generic approach which allows verifying a...
متن کاملVirtual Prototyping of Automotive Systems: Towards Multi-level Design Space Exploration
The design methodology of an embedded system should start with a system-level design space exploration dividing functions into hardware and software. However, since this partitioning decision is taken at a high level of abstraction, we propose regularly validating the selected partitioning during software development. The paper introduces a new model-based engineering process with a supporting ...

متن کاملEfficient Constraint Handling during Designing Reliable Automotive Real-Time Systems
In modern embedded systems, e.g. avionics and automotive, it is not unusual for there to be between 40 and 100 processors with a great deal of the software having hard real-time requirements and constraints over how, when and where they execute. The requirements and constraints are essential to the overall systems dependability and safety (e.g. to ensure replicas execute on different hardware)....
