Evolution of the Automotive Reference Architecture Model towards a Domain-Specific Systems Engineering Approach

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Due to the rising complexity in the automotive domain a suitable modeling framework to facilitate development as well as interdisciplinary communication is needed. In the domain of smart grids, the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) framework turned out to be a suitable tool for coping with complexity whilst providing cross-disciplinary understanding. A similar approach exists for the automotive domain: the Automotive Reference Architecture Model (ARAM) framework. As opposed to other automotive frameworks, this one offers interoperability with the smart grid framework, which simplifies cross-domain collaboration. During the development of ARAM, the Software Platform Embedded Systems (SPES) methodology gained momentum. This methodology can be considered an architectural model while the automotive framework can be considered an analysis model, according to the domain-specific systems engineering approach. In order to follow this approach, a transformation between the two models must be possible. This work-in-progress paper aims at presenting first approaches of an adapted version of the ARAM framework, proposing a reworked structure that is compatible with both, SGAM and SPES.
