Starting point of Automotive Software From operating system

The following is the Starting point of Automotive Software From operating system recommended by recordtrend.com. And this article belongs to the classification: Brokerage Report, Smart car.

Operating system: the starting point of Automotive Software

We believe that the automobile is gradually evolving from a pure industrial product to an IT product, its IT architecture will gradually mature, and the division of labor of each core component will become more and more clear. In this process, the role of the operating system will continue to evolve. Automobile data and signals are not only binary data, but also more complex than other intelligent terminals. With the evolution of automotive electronic and electrical architecture from distributed to centralized, control domain, cockpit domain and driving domain were born. Different domains have different requirements for the operating system. For example, the body control has high requirements for real-time performance, and it has divided into real-time operating system and time-sharing operating system. We believe that the automotive basic software represented by the operating system is becoming more and more important in the industry, and the market space is expected to gradually rise. It is recommended to pay attention to manufacturers with layout in related fields: Neusoft group, NavInfo, and Guangting information.

Automotive operating system: industry attention / consensus has increased significantly

With the gradual standardization of automotive hardware architecture, the industry has paid more attention to automotive software, especially the basic software operating system. Including the establishment of automobile software companies by overseas automobile manufacturers and Tier1 manufacturers, and some large-scale acquisitions. For example, in January 2022, anbofu purchased WinDriver software WinDriver with us $4.3 billion (about 27.37 billion yuan). Fenghe is a leading industrial basic software enterprise in the world.

We believe that the reasons behind the high attention of automotive software are: 1) hardware carrier in the early stage, software optimization in the middle stage and ecological application in the late stage; 2) EE architecture migration: from distributed to centralized; 3) Software & Hardware:

From high coupling to gradual decoupling; 4) Chip: from MCU to SOC; 5) Hardware standardization / homogeneity, software complexity / differentiation.

Terminal perspective: the complexity of automotive OS may be further improved to lay a foundation for automotive it ecology. Compared with mobile phones, automotive electronic and electrical architecture is more complex, with more application scenarios, more data types and higher requirements for stability. The requirements of vehicle specification level on product performance / safety / stability are at least one order of magnitude higher than that of consumption level. With the evolution of new electrical architectures such as automotive domain controller and central computing architecture, the software and hardware are expected to be gradually decoupled, showing the characteristics of hardware standardization and software complexity. The complexity of automotive operating system may be further improved in the future. Review the development history of mobile OS. The current automotive OS is similar to the mobile OS in the early software definition era, but it is more complex than mobile phones in terms of multi operating system integration / virtual platform construction / adaptation of underlying hardware architecture. The ecology of the upper layer applications is rich. The automobile carrier may eventually evolve into an IT product platform similar to the mobile phone, and the OS may become an important foundation for the automobile it ecology.

Perspective of application scenario: with complex functions, the value status of automotive OS is expected to be improved. The automotive operating system is the dispatcher of automotive software and hardware resources, and plays an important role in the process of realizing automotive functions. With the increasing complexity of automobile functions, the responsibility of operating system has developed from realizing basic vehicle control to realizing intelligent cockpit and supporting intelligent driving. The amount of data it needs to process has also increased significantly. With the demand for massive data processing, centralized architecture and powerful computing chips came into being. In this context, the importance of the allocation of underlying software and hardware resources has further increased. We believe that with the increasing complexity of automotive functions, the value position of automotive operating system in the whole vehicle is expected to continue to improve.

Chip perspective: the improvement of computing power has laid the foundation for multi OS operation, and attention has been paid to the decoupling trend of software and hardware. In recent years, the computing power of on-board chips has continued to increase, making it possible to run multiple types of operating systems at the same time. In addition, the hardware standardization and homogeneity in the market are getting higher and higher. Software has gradually become the key for car manufacturers to create differentiated products. The decoupling of software and hardware may become the future development trend. As the core hub for connecting and managing hardware, software and users, on-board operating system determines the stability of automotive software architecture. We believe that under the trend of software and hardware decoupling, the on-board operating system may become the key to software defined vehicles, and its importance is expected to rise further.
