Decoupling of the application logic from the basic software stack enables automotive suppliers (no matter if Tier-1 or in-house teams at an OEM) to contribute with building blocks to Software-defined Vehicle (SDV) projects. The Eclipse Automotive API Framework provides a stable application-facing interface, thereby minimizing the prevalence of proprietary solutions throughout the automotive sector. A corresponding model allows configuration and offers the needed flexibility for the handling of vehicle variants and different E/E architectures. Such solution also creates a win-win situation for both suppliers and OEMs. Suppliers aim to provide off-the-shelf software, while OEMs seek seamless integration and flexibility in feature selection. To maximize its applicability in the automotive HPC domain, the application interface shall encompass a wide range of functionalities relevant to application development. These functionalities include communication, diagnostics, non-volatile memory, and logging. Additionally, lifecycle (startup, operation, shutdown) and execution management will be covered, laying the foundation for a system-wide deterministic execution of control algorithms.
