Concepts
| Supported Concept | Description |
|---|---|
| Topology | Composition of the hardware devices and their interconnections |
| Electronic Control Unit | An Electronic Control Unit(ECU) is an embedded system in vehicles responsible for managing specific applicative functions. |
| Hardware Port | Port typed by hardware interface |
| Hardware Interface | Typed with protocols CAN family, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet, and wired link. It can be used to ensure consistency of the hardware interfaces |
| High Performance Computer | Hierarchical definition of a High Performance Computer with its internal components. |
| Hypervisor | Part of the internal High Performance Computer definition |
| Runtime | A runtime defines a virtual execution environment |
| Container | A container defines an isolated virtual execution environment for applications |
| MicroController | Hardware part of HPC |
| MicroProcessor | Hardware part of HPC |
| Core | Hardware part of HPC |
| Sensor | A Sensor is a device that detects physical properties or environmental conditions—such as temperature, pressure, motion, or light—and converts them into measurable electrical signals. |
| Actuator | An Actuator is a device that converts control signals (typically electrical) into physical movement, force, or other actions. |
| Electrical Device | It can be a battery, fuse, relay |
| Device | Openness for any device |
| Communication Bus | Typed with protocols CAN family, LIN, FlexRay, MOST |
| Wired Link | Wire connection between hardware ports |
| Virtual Local Area Network | Definition of Virtual Local Area Network on Ethernet segment for Ethernet communication backbone |
| Ethernet Segment | Ethernet connection between hardware ports |
| Switch | Ethernet switch |
