In the research project automotiveHMI (human machine interface) a new exchange format for the model-based specification of automotive infotainment systems was developed. This format aims at optimizing the processes, in which graphical user interfaces are developed in the German automotive industry. Several non-standardized interfaces between the different development processes and a mainly paper-based information exchange between the development project partners currently lead to a "digital gap" when exchanging intermediate results among the development partners. This results in the need for manual adaptations due to different, incompatible tool chains, leading to high costs in both time and staff appropriations. A solution to the problem of the "digital gap" was developed in the project automotiveHMI by creating an integrated approach based on standardized formal languages, models and interfaces. The main idea behind this solution is the iterative refinement of automotive user interface specifications from the first rough draft to the final, machine-readable system specification. The newly developed specification interchange format - named "Infotainment Specification Format" (ISF) - allows the application of an integrated tool-chain for the iterative specification and generation of automotive user interfaces. This new approach leads to several advantages like the possibility to generate interactive mockups of infotainment-systems at very early design stages. Furthermore, specifications developed in the ISF-format can be used to derive test models for model-based testing, allowing automated checks for inconsistencies and automatic versioning. As a result, manual checks are not needed anymore, which results in saved time and effort. Also, changes between two versions of a specification can be highlighted automatically. All involved partners in the project benefit from the resulting higher efficiency, OEMs as well as suppliers and tool developers. This higher efficiency affects all phases of the development from the specification over development to testing and gives the German automotive industry an additional competitive edge.
