Model-Based Design for AUTOSAR Software Components

International audienceThe AUTOSAR initiative is without doubt one of the most forward-looking and important developments in the automotive industry. Tool support is essential for efficient software development according to AUTOSAR, particularly for developing the actual application software in the form of AUTOSAR software components. This paper deals with the adaptation of model-based design and automatic production code generation techniques to the proposed AUTOSAR workflow. It shows that existing approaches are well suited for the development of AUTOSAR software, preserving all the advantages of model-based design such as early testability, precise specifications, and last but not least, automatic production code generation
