SmartSAR: A Component-Based Hierarchy Software Platform for Automotive Electronics

As the automotive electronic system grows larger and more complex, research on software architecture and development methodology becomes more important. This paper proposes a component-based hierarchical software platform for automotive electronics - SmartSAR, which follows the AUTOSAR specification and provides a series of tools for model-driven development, visual configuration and automatic generation. The case study with SmartAMT, a control system of automated mechanical transmission, has shown the advantage of SmartSAR platform in automotive electronic software design.
