About This Training

The AUTOSAR initiative (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture, www.autosar.org) started developing the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform with the aim of fulfilling requirements of applications such as highly-automated driving. These requirements include over-the-air software updates to integrate improved algorithms into vehicles, as well as the support of computations that simultaneously require high computing power and strict safety standards. The AUTOSAR adaptive platform is not intended to replace the classic platform. ECUs developed by both platforms can co-exist and communicate in the same vehicle.

This course introduces the main goals and contents of the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform and compares them with their counterparts of the AUTOSAR Classic Platform. Participants will learn about the service-oriented architecture used by the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform and how the communication patterns compare to those of the AUTOSAR Classic Platform. Further topics include the changed basic software, which is called platform software in the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform, a short introduction to the implementation of the application software, and a basic explanation of the SOME/IP protocol.
