ACADEMIC PAPER Abstract "In recent years, the electrical and/or electronic architecture of vehicles has been significantly evolving. The new generation of cars demands a considerable amount of computational power due to a large number of safety-critical applications and driver-assisted functionalities. Consequently, a high-performance computing unit is required to provide the demanded pow... » read more

Meet Both Security And Safety Needs In New Automotive SoCs
By Omar Cruz - 03 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

With advances in hardware and software, smart vehicles are improving with every generation. Capabilities that once seemed far-off and futuristic—from automatic braking to self-driving features—are now either standard or within reach. However, as vehicle architectures evolve, the ways that both security and safety can be addressed at the system-on-chip (SoC) level also must evolve. Cars a... » read more

Is A Guestimate Good Enough For Obtaining Failure Mode Distribution?
By Jamileh Davoudi - 08 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

SoCs targeting automotive applications are required to meet certain safety and quality standards as described in ISO 26262. A quantitative approach to safety analysis involves performing Failure Mode Effects and Diagnostic Analysis (FMEDA). FMEDA is a systematic quantitative analysis technique to obtain subsystem/product level failure rates, failure modes and diagnostic capabilities of systemat... » read more

Ensuring Functional Safety For Automotive AI Processors
By Frank Schirrmeister - 03 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Safety is critically important across the automotive, industrial, and aerospace and defense industries. For instance, Cadence's work with Hailo illustrates how advances in semiconductor technology and EDA deliver safe electronics without compromising low power and cost. Hailo's automotive webpage starts with the words "The pursuit for 'vision zero,'" reflecting that European road fatalitie... » read more

However, the complexity of the embedded software required for functional safety is growing and security issues are rising due to connectivity requirements. This can result the failure of a safety-critical system and lead to ... » read more

Managing Today’s Advanced Vehicle Networks Design Challenges
By Brendan Morris - 06 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Today’s automotive electrical and electronic (E/E) architectures are highly complex, with the functionality of many vehicle features distributed across multiple discrete ECUs. The ECUs, sensors and actuators are not all directly connected, and much of the data communication occurs across networks, often through gateways over several networks. Modern E/E architectures are formally organized ar... » read more
