Advanced automotive functions are increasingly dependent on software and electronics. These embedded systems are becoming increasingly complex and critical for the entire vehicle.
Model based development is a means to manage this complexity and develop embedded systems in a way that increase safety and quality.
The ATESST2 project addresses this topic and provides means to integrate the engineering information from documents, spreadsheets and legacy tools into one systematic structure, a System Model.
ATESST2 will deliver a refined version of the EAST-ADL2, an automotive architecture description language. EAST-ADL2 provides an information structure for the engineering information involved in automotive software development.
EAST-ADL is subject to research in past and present projects, such as EAST-EEA (where the language was initiated), TIMMO and EDONA. ATESST is the predecessor project of ATESST2 and its results can be found here.
ATESST2 is a STREP funded by the European Commission.
