Learn to develop software for vehicles using the most common framework of today.
The automotive industry and modern vehicles increasingly rely on software to perform the majority of tasks. In this course, you will get introduced to specific software architectures and concepts, such as modularization, virtualization, safety aspects, and compile-time configurations, real-time constraints. Exercises are performed in an AUTOSAR environment, covering basic principles and technical concepts of automotive software components (SWC) and runtime environment (RTE). Data exchange formats and OEM / supplier methodologies and software migration scenarios are analyzed. The course has a high practical dimension with real equipment and tools/frameworks utilized throughout, including DaVinci and MICROSAR. Finally, you will be introduced to concepts with AUTOSAR Adaptive and its future application outlooks.
