Bernard Dugerdil,  EMEA Standards & Strategy Senior Manger,  Freescale - presenting on behalf of ITU-T

- The main drawback of electric vehicles is the battery charge : ITS will definitively help and will be an enabler for new business models in this area.

- The potential of ITS can only be realized if its deployment in Europe is transformed from the limited and fragmented implementation that is observed today into a EUwide one.

- This goal can be achieved only if we can demonstrate Interoperability and interoperability must be based on standards. 

-  This presentation will provide the status on vehicular communications related standardization work and the possible application for electrical vehicles.

WS2 :Embedded systems and Standardisation

Chairman : Philippe Briot, Director, Briot & Associates

- Towards a standardisation of SW  architecture in Chassis Domain
Pascal Gouriet, DTI/DPMO/CSEE/APPT, PSA Peugeot Citroën
For chassis domain, completely new software architecture is currently being planned. This architecture, based on AUTOSAR Concepts, consists to build software with Basic Software Modules and Application Software Components. So, the hardware ans software are linked thropugh an abstraction layer, increasing in fact the SW module reuse ant the HW- independence. Moreover, it’s possible to integrate faster and easier a 3^rd party SW. The carmakers, suppliers, software and tools providers need to use same definitions, in order to build together a successful story. The standard AUTOSAR is useful for this.
