A New Approach for Gateway-Based Automotive Network Architectures
In this thesis, a new holistic approach to the design of electronic automotive network architectures is presented. This approach provides an effective way to master the increasing complexity of the design phase and to create optimal gateway-based network architectures with respect to several dimensions, such as cost and reliability. Beside the optimisation of the overall network architecture, this new approach can also be used for local domain-specific optimisation (e.g., the body domain, the chassis domain, etc.) or for the integration of new functions in an existing network architecture.
