Re-configuration in SOA-based adaptive driver assistance systems
Marco Wagner, Dieter Zöbel, Ansgar Meroth · ACM SIGBED Review · 2014
Unlike state-of-the-art Driver Assistance Systems (DAS) upcoming technologies may not base on a static software and system architecture. This is especially true for DAS for truck and trailer combinations were the components needed are distributed over both parts of the articulated vehicle. As a truck might be connected to different trailers changes are very common. In order to handle these changes at runtime the usage of Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) is a promising approach. Hereby the functionalities are encapsulated into Services which are re-composed whenever the system architecture changes. As the Services in such a system run on small embedded units traditional approaches to process the re-composition as known for example from the Web Services domain cannot be adopted directly. This paper discusses the different composition approaches published in recent years and suggests an algorithm suited for this class of systems.
