ECUs (Electronic Control Units) linked together within an automotive network are generally supplied by different companies, and mostly include different micro-controllers and software architectures. Moreover, applications provided by different suppliers have to co-exist in a single processor in the future. Today's individual development processes for distributed, communicating ECUs hinder the integration of automotive systems and increase the overall costs. In order to achieve a significant reduction of these costs, services and protocols for communication, network management, and operating system must be standardized. The OSEK/VDX group worked out a respective specification in co-operation with several car manufacturers and suppliers. The specification will permit a cost-effective system integration and support the portation of system functions between different electronic control units. A brief summary of the OSEK/VDX results and an outlook on the continuation of the project are given.
