Theoretical Aspects of Automatically Generated Service-Oriented Communication Between ADAS and IVI Domains

In the automotive software development, interface definition languages (IDLs) are often used to provide system models and enable the automatic generation of communication mechanisms between different software components. This way, the development process is facilitated leaving the implementation of the application independent from communication mechanisms. However, the utilization of heterogenous platforms and standards in the automotive industry often leads to the repeated implementation of software components with the similar functionality. Also, due to the fact that IDLs are usually built only for one domain, similar or complementary communication mechanisms need to be defined in different interface definition languages, in order to enable the cross-domain communication. Two challenges in this topic are interesting for further analysis and this paper provides the theoretical aspects for their solution. The first challenge is the implementation of proper translation between available interface definition languages following the model driven development. The second challenge is the expansion of the code generated from IDLs to achieve the cross-domain communication between ADAS and IVI in automotive.
