ARCCORE – in brief

• Independent vendor of automotive-SW with focus on AUTOSAR

• Integration, adaptation and service

• Incorporated 2009

• 80+ engineers – M.Sc. or PhD

• Centers in: – Sweden (Göteborg & Linköping)

Emergence of Adaptive AUTOSAR in AD and

Infotainment

• New designs are often based on Multicore and MultiOS

• Classic AUTOSAR

– Integrates into the car network, safety, control and sensors

• Adaptive AUTOSAR / Linux / POSIX

– AI, sensor fusion, codecs, HMI, deployment of applications

• Model the logical architecture independent of the underlying platform

• Demand exist already before the definition of Adaptive AUTOSAR

– Virtual ECUs, proprietary solution for the communication between AUTOSAR and Linux

• This presentation is based on running projects and products under

development

ECU types

Classic AUTOSAR;

High reliability, Hard realtime, High Safety

Used as Smart Sensors/Actuators

Mixed AUTOSAR;

Best of both worlds

Used as Gateway or when I/O is needed in Adaptive

EVALUATION SAFETY SOLUTION ON NVIDIA

DRIVE PX PLATFORM

• AI supercomputer for cars with the processing power of 24 trillion deep learning

operations per second

• ARCCOREs AUTOSAR is running on both NVIDIA Tegra (under Linux) and on the

AURIX controller

• system can consist of multiple AUTOSAR Software

Components (SWCs) communicating over CAN and

Ethernet

• Complete tool chain for AUTOSAR available as well

as the NVIDEA SDK

• Available sensors: camera, radar, LIDAR, ultrasound,

GPS, odometer, maps

– A concept for logging SWC port interfaces to Ethernet

– The data is sent as UDP packages one for each main loop execution.

– A2L file generation in ArcticStudio

– Rte_bufExtract – Tool for decoding port interface from pcap files

– Support for decoding the log file into matlab format for visualization and replay

• SOME/IP logging

– Fibex file generation in ArcticStudio

– SomeIPExtract - Tool for decoding SOME/IP messages from pcap files

– Support for decoding the log file into matlab format for visualization and replay

System Replay

• Built on SWC-contracts

• Sensor Data obtained from log-files

• Used for Virtual Verification and Fast prototyping

• Automated generation of RunTime system

• Runs on local host or cluster

• Developed for large scale verification – X turns around the globe

.log

Tools for 3D/360 Sensor analysis

• Decode the SOME/IP object data into 3D/360 view

• Support both Offline and Online visualization

• Support for Linux and Windows
