Applying AUTOSAR in Practice : Available Development Tools and Migration Paths

With the increased use of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) in the automotive industry, the system creation and integration becomes progressively more complex. In order to manage this issue, the AUTomotive Open System Architecture (AUTOSAR) was initiated by several of the larger automotive companies and suppliers. Their goal was to create an architecture which will increase the reusability of software, integration of solutions from multiple suppliers and improve scalability. This thesis is made in collaboration with the company CrossControl and covers questions which are specific to their interests, features the AUTOSAR standard has to offer, evaluation of the use of development tools from different vendors, how migration is supported and how the standard affects the required hardware. Among our conclusions is that the AUTOSAR goals of decoupling software application components from the hardware is met to a high degree. Secondly even though file formats are standardized it is not a seamless integration between development tools. Finally, the choice of hardware is not only affected by properties of the standard, but the current versions of tools also limit the choices.
