Abstract

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous functions, and connected applications bring a revolution to automotive systems, but they also make automotive design, especially software and electronics, more complex than ever. The complexity introduces significant challenges to automotive industry, and thus design automation, model-based design, and platform-based design can assist system designers to verify design correctness, improve design quality, accelerate design development, reduce design cost, and prevent redesign or recall. Sharing similar concepts with electronic design automation, automotive design automation can be categorized into three core parts: modeling, design (including synthesis and optimization), and analysis (including verification, simulation, and testing).In this talk, we first go through some examples of modeling, design, and analysis in both of electronic design automation and automotive design automation. Next, we present two routing problems, one applicable to circuit physical design and automotive harness design and the other one applicable to microfluidic biochip design and intersection management, and discuss their similarities and differences. Then, we bring out four design-time problems in the automotive domain: (1) placement which allocates tasks onto automotive systems, edges, and the cloud, (2) verification which checks the compatibility of automotive sub-systems, (3) software integrity which aims to comply with an automotive functional safety standard, ISO 26262, and (4) security-aware design and analysis which provide decisions at the early stages in the V-model.Besides the existing solutions and research challenges of these problems, how the techniques in electronic design automation can facilitate addressing these problems is also covered. We believe that the techniques can not only contribute solutions to integrated circuit design and automotive design but also give insights to the design of embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, and other complex systems.
