Presentation Topics: “Aggregation and integration
of next-generation vehicle computing and the OS
technologies”

As the C.A.S.E, namely Connected, Autonomous,
Sharing/Service, and Electric have become the
driving force of the vehicle design, the E/E
architecture design will also inevitably change.
The design shift challenges the current highly
distributed vehicle computing architecture,
as the software needs to be aggregated and
integrated to the level that is never imagined
before. The software platform such as
AUTOSAR or ROS with its underlying OS will
be the key to realize a high-performance but
energy-efficient, deterministic, cost-effective
safe system. This talk will provide insights into
the software challenges and the role OS plays to tackle the E/E architecture design shift.
