Customer Specific Components


High-performance architectures and increasing standardization enable the combination of software from various sources in the control unit. This opens up new possibilities for developing software efficiently and for designing functions that are distributed across several control units.

The Software and Integration Factory supports vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers in:

  • the development of customer-specific software components for electronic control units.
    This affects the implementation of application cores with the control algorithms specified by the customer, and the application drivers as hardware abstraction layer.
    The scope of services provided by Vector's Software and Integration Factory includes:
    • the analysis of requirements
    • the design of software components, based on function models supplied by the customer
    • implementation including component test
    • verification of the software

  • the supply of software components for safety relevant applications.
    The scope of services provided by Vector's Software and Integration Factory includes:
    • the definition of specifications and of a software safety concept
    • the design and implementation of software components including component tests
    • verification of the software

  • the architectural design and integration of ECU software.
    The scope of services provided by Vector's Software and Integration Factory includes:
    • the delivery of ECU software architectures (e.g. based on AUTOSAR)
    • the definition of system requirement specifications
    • the execution of compatibility tests for software components
    • the integration of the components including integration testing
