RTE Template Structure for AUTOSAR based Embedded Software Platform

In this paper, we present a design of RTE template structure for AUTOSAR-based vehicle applications. Due to an increase in software complexity in recent years, much greater efforts are necessary to manage and develop software modules in automotive industries. To deal with this issue, an automotive Open system architecture (AUTOSAR) partnership was launched. This embedded platform standardizes software architectures and provides a methodology supporting distributed process. The RTE that is located at the heart of AUTOSAR implements the virtual function bus functionality for a particle electronic control unit (ECU). It enables to communicate between application software components. The purpose of this paper is to design a RTE structure with the AUTOSAR standard concept. As a future work, this research will be further extended, and we will propose the development of a RTE generator that is drawn on an AUTOSAR RTE template structure.
