Overview
As the automotive industry transitions toward Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs), OEMs and suppliers face a rapid increase in embedded software complexity. Vehicle functionality is now distributed across central compute platforms, zonal controllers, and smart edge devices, combining service oriented and signal based architectures. Managing this complexity requires more than process compliance—it demands strong domain expertise, sound architectural decisions, and an integrated development approach to meet both functional and nonfunctional requirements.
In this webinar, KPIT and MathWorks bring together complementary methodologies, engineering expertise, and state-of-the-art tools to enable a structured, model based development workflow.
Through a concrete example, you will learn how to design, validate, and implement a distributed SDV software feature—from system requirements and architecture definition to AUTOSAR compliant code generation—across a zonal vehicle architecture.
This approach helps teams detect issues earlier, reduce rework, and avoid costly late phase integration problems that are common in distributed vehicle architectures.
