GuardKnox, NXP, and Green Hills Software have partnered to introduce a vehicle compute solution based on NXP’s S32G vehicle network processor and Green Hills INTEGRITY RTOS. The solution introduces a consolidated, scalable, dynamic, and secure vehicle compute platform based on a single System-on-Chip (SoC) mixed-criticality platform that empowers OEMs and Tier suppliers to offer functionality as a service while decreasing the development and end solution cost.
The partnership is bridging the gap in the automotive value chain where traditional market players are required to implement, innovate and introduce technological advancements needed to enable emerging Zonal Electrical/ Electronic (E/E) architectures using new types of hardware and software technologies
The automotive landscape and traditional supply chain are undergoing a paradigm shift. No longer is the vehicle viewed as a simple transportation mechanism, but as a mobility service or the mobility experience that it provides. The traditional approach of designing a vehicle’s E/E architecture, cannot scale to meet future demands as the automotive industry has responded to the consumer trends by gradually adding more and more ECUs, millions of lines of code, and hundreds of specialized suppliers and parts to the modern vehicle to increase functionality. The current E/E architecture has reached its scalability limits and can only be surpassed by a technological shift. Furthermore, new-age consumers demand a personalized and immersive driving experience, founded on the concept of application hosting and downloading
