Pattern catalog for multicore migration of embedded automotive systems
Georg Macher, Andrea Höller, Eric Armengaud, Christian Kreiner · 2015
Embedded systems are already integrated into our everyday life and play a central role in all domains including automotive, aerospace, healthcare or industry. The complexity of embedded systems and software has grown significantly in recent years. For the automotive industry, as an example, embedded systems components are responsible for 25% of vehicle costs, while the added value from electronic components range between 40% for traditional vehicle up to 75% for electrics and hybrid vehicles. Driven by the ongoing challenge of reducing cost and simultaneously replacing safety-critical mechanical systems with more advanced embedded system, multi-core systems are also increasingly relevant for safety-critical embedded systems. However, when migrating safety-critical applications to multi-core systems special attention should be paid to preserve determinism, and assure certifiability of the system.
