Objective
As vehicle computing shifted toward heterogeneous architectures, a European Tier-1 supplier engaged AVIN Systems to design hardware and OS abstraction layers for its high-performance computing (HPC) platform. The abstraction enabled seamless communication between hardware-specific drivers and portable applications.
Solution
Requirement Analysis & Configuration
Analyzed heterogeneous ECU architectures to define abstraction layers. Enabled portability across QNX and Linux platforms.
Network Management and Development
Built real-time communication interfaces decoupled from hardware dependencies. Supported seamless driver-to-application data flow.
Memory and Bootloader Integration
Integrated memory abstraction and OTA-ready bootloaders for multi-OS support.
Security Enhancement
Implemented secure abstraction protocols and OS-level access controls. Ensured safe execution across diverse hardware.
Testing and Validation
Used DevOps CI/CD and Axivion tools for automated validation. Improved I/O performance and platform stability.
Impacts
- Reduced hardware dependency, enabling platform reusability.
- Improved I/O performance by 20%.
- Enabled multi-OS support (Linux, QNX) for the same ECU platform.
Tech Stack
