Current State in Automotive Industry – Complexity, Cost & Quality Challenges
• The amount of electronics in cars is increasing steadily
• Within the car electronics, the amount of software is expanding rapidly
• The classical software issues have emerged – scalability, performance, re-usability, maintainability and management of software versions constitute a worsening cost and quality problem

Money is not in commodity software,but in generating commodity software
• Commodity software vs. commodity hardware (e.g. screws)
– expected to simply work– not competitive if manufactured– equipment to produce may be competitive
• Commodity requires standardization– something not standardized will be too
expensive
• AUTOSAR BSW may become commodity in the future
– ability to generate high quality BSW will not be commodity
– tools will become more important than BSW– Unification is coming (see illustration on next
slide)

Currently, AUTOSAR experts are rare.Efficient education is urgently needed.
• Today, expertise is with those who need the experts
– Internal training programs are the main way of education
– These trainings are already offered to users as well
• Market demand for AUTOSAR experts is hardly recognized
– Only few colleges have AUTOSAR in their curricula– Automotive suppliers are not fully aware of the
demand
• Joint training activities of all players seem reasonable
– Bring OEMs, Tier1s, micro suppliers and experts together
• Quick AUTOSAR adaptation is a competitive advantage.

Trend: limited R&D investment and willingness to take risks
• R&D budgets in the European automotive industry are still limited.Customers move risks to their suppliers.
• All suppliers throughout the value chain are requested to pre-finance R&D costs to significant.
• More R&D investments need to allocated to production volumes (payment per shipped car/device).
• With an average of 3 years development time the ROI will take up to 5 years with significant risks and financing costs for the supplier.
• Only few financially well equipped companies can bear these investments.

Trend: Seamless Consumer Device Integration
• With the growing adaption of Digital Media Players and Smartphones the seamless integration of these devices with the car becoming an increasingly important topic for consumers.
• While this has been driven previously from European Automotive OEMs and handset manufacturers now the smartphone innovation happens in the US . Ford Sync is a good example for smart approaches to the device interaction with the car.
• EU car industry needs to drive this topic again. In our opinion CE4A alone is not sufficient.
