The automotive industry faces constant pressure to reduce development costs and time while still increasing vehicle quality. To meet this challenge, engineers and researchers in both science and industry are developing effective strategies and flexible tools by enhancing and further integrating powerful, computer-aided design technology. This book provides a valuable overview of the development tools and methods of today and tomorrow. It is targeted not only towards professional project and design engineers, but also to students and to anyone who is interested in state-of-the-art computer-aided development. The book begins with an overview of automotive development processes and the principles of virtual product development. Focusing on computer-aided design, a comprehensive outline of the fundamentals of geometry representation provides a deeper insight into the mathematical techniques used to describe and model geometrical elements. The book then explores the link between the demands of integrated design processes and efficient data management. Within automotive development, the management of knowledge and engineering data plays a crucial role. Some selected representative applications provide insight into the complex interactions between computer-aided design, knowledge-based engineering and data management and highlight some of the important methods currently emerging in the field.

This book is about how to develop future automotive products by applying the latest methodologies based on a systems engineering approach and by taking into account many issues facing the auto industry such as meeting government safety, emissions and fuel economy regulations, incorporating advances in new technology applications in structural materials, power trains, vehicle lighting systems, displays and telematics, and satisfying the very demanding customer. It is financially disastrous for any automotive company to create a vehicle that very few people want. To design an automotive product that will be successful in the marketplace requires carefully orchestrated teamwork of experts from many disciplines, substantial amount of resources, and application of proven techniques at the right time during the product development process. Automotive Product Development: A Systems Engineering Implementation is intended for company management personnel and graduate students in engineering, business management and other disciplines associated with the development of automotive and other complex products.

This book provides full scope of automotive ECU development activities including cybersecurity and safety plus SOTIF. Every computing system has two, and only two attributes: Data Value and Data timing, which represent fully the system functionalities from the system external behavior point of view. The data driven system engineering is the approach to develop the system by focusing on the two attributes mentioned above, in which, the data values are derived by the system operation concept design, and the data timing is derived by the system latency design. Based on which, this book provides a full range of system and software engineering development activities: Requirement Elicitation Requirement Engineering System and Software Architecture Design System Operation Concept Design System and Software Structure Design Electronic Architect Design Functionality Allocation Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) Safety including SOTIF Cybersecurity (full compliant with UN ECE 155/156) System and software Verification System and Software Integration and Verification System and Software Black Box Verification each of which has its own clearly defined scope and approach, which is different from the conventional development, in some cases even different from some ISO standards, for example: Safety Development: the safety requirements for every part in a vehicle are cascaded from the vehicle safety requirements, which is different from the Concept Phase in the Part 3 of ISO 26262, and the functional safety development will be fully covered by (1) Reliability (2) Availability (3) Quality. Error Detection and Protection: there are only two types of errors to be detected in a computing system: Data Value error and Data Timing error, to detect which, there are only two aspects to be considered: (1) input data (2) middle data and output data in addition to the platform error detection. The approaches of detection and protection include (1) data transfer protocol check, (2) data range and reasonable value check, (3) execution time check and control. FMEA: this book provides the optimized approach by following the data relationships between the input data, middle data and output data, which will be both inductive and deductive, and re-use the system operation concept that is built at the system development first phase, to make the development efficient. Cybersecurity: this book provides the full solution to cover the UN ECE 155 by implementing three aspects: (1) Trusted contents in the ECU (2) Authenticated access to the ECU (3) Authenticated communication with the ECU. Requirement Engineering: This book makes the goal and scope of requirement engineering in the computing system development specific, accurate and measurable by defining the scope as: the requirement engineering is to use the computer executable information to describe the system under development which consists only two types of information: Signal and Test Case, and defining the requirement quality measurement as: (1) Signals, either input or output signals, shall be computer readable. (2) Test cases shall be executable in the system. System Architecture Design: The goal of system architecture design is to provide the platform that transfers and transforms the input signal to become the required output signal via some middle data. This book introduces the following system functional modulizations based on the AUTOSAR that satisfies a generic automotive ECU structure: (1) Feature Function (2) Diagnostic Service (3) Cybersecurity Function (4) Serial Signal Manager (5) Application Mode Manager (6) AUTOSAR, and based on the characteristics of those functions, the book provides the approach to design the electronic architecture and allocate the functions to the architecture.

Software-Hardware Integration in Automotive Product Development brings together a must-read set of technical papers on one the most talked-about subjects among industry experts The carefully selected content of this book demonstrates how leading companies, universities, and organizations have developed methodologies, tools, and technologies to integrate, verify, and validate hardware and software systems. The automotive industry is no different, with the future of its product development lying in the timely integration of these chiefly electronic and mechanical systems. The integration activities cross both product type and engineering discipline boundaries to include chip-, embedded board-, and network/vehicle-level systems. Integration, verification, and validation of each of these three domains are examined in depth, attesting to the difficulties of this phase of the automotive hardware and software system life cycle. The current state of the art is to integrate, verify, validate, and test automotive hardware and software with a complement of physical hardware and virtual software prototyping tools. The growth of sophisticated software tools, sometimes combined with hardware-in-the-loop devices, has allowed the automotive industry to meet shrinking time-to-market, decreasing costs, and increasing safety demands. It is also why most of the papers in this book focus on virtual systems, prototypes, and models to emulate and simulate both hardware and software. Further, such tools and techniques are the way that hardware and software systems can be “co-verified” and tested in a concurrent fashion. The goal of this compilation of expert articles is to reveal the similarities and differences between the integration, verification, and validation (IVV) of hardware and software at the chip, board, and network levels. This comparative study will reveal the common IVV thread among the different, but ultimately related, implementations of hardware and software systems. In so doing, it supports the larger systems engineering approach for the vertically integrated automobile—namely, that of model-driven development.
