Since the early seventies,
the development of the automobile has been characterized by a
steady
increase in the deployment of onboard electronic systems and software. This
trend
continues unabated and is driven by rising end-user demands and
increasingly stringent
environmental requirements. Today almost every
function onboard the modern vehicle is
electronically controlled or
monitored.
The software-based
implementation of vehicle functions provides for unparalleled freedoms
of
concept and design. However, automobile development calls for the accommodation
of
contrasting prerequisites such as higher demands on safety and
reliability vs. lower cost
ceilings, longer product life cycles vs. shorter
development times along with a growing
proliferation of model variants.
Automotive Software Engineering has established its
position at the center of
these seemingly conflicting opposites. This book provides
background basics as well
as numerous suggestions, rare insights, and cases in point
concerning those processes,
methods, and tools that contribute to the surefooted mastery
of the use of electronic
systems and software in the contemporary automobile. Special
emphasis is given to the
electronic systems in powertrain, chassis, and body.
