Variability management in the AUTOSAR-based development of applications for in-vehicle systems
Jacques Thomas, Christian Dziobek, Bernd Hedenetz · 2011
In automotive electrical/electronics systems, reuse of software applications over vehicle lines is becoming essential due to the growing complexity of the applications. In addition, a growing number of variants have to be handled because of the increasing number of differences arising in vehicle lines. Software product lines are a common approach to address these issues. This paper presents the challenges and our vision for the introduction of a product line approach in the context of AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System Architecture)-based development of applications for in vehicle systems.
