Provided are systems, methods, and computer program products for a distributed computing system for a vehicle. A vehicle (such as an autonomous vehicle) can have a hardware architecture including a master embedded system and multiple slave embedded systems. Each of the master and slave embedded systems can include, for example, a system on a chip (SoC). Each of the slave embedded systems can have multiple sensors of the vehicle assigned thereto, can process data generated by its assigned sensors, and can communicate an output of its processing to the master embedded system. The master embedded system can control timing of the slave embedded systems, such as by rotating sequentially through each of the slave embedded systems, such that timing of the sensors' data generating and processing can be controlled. Each of the slave embedded systems can communicate with the master embedded system via a high speed interface.
