Rapidly Evolving E/E Architectures for Ground Vehicles - Insights from the Commercial and Automotive Industries

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper explores key trends shaping E/E architectures in the commercial and automotive industries, including the increasing adoption of High-Performance Computers (HPCs) and high data rate Ethernet networks. These advancements facilitate the transition from Distributed to Zonal physical architecture. Concurrently, industry shifts toward standardizing software development via Software Architecture standards, Software Factories and embracing Software Defined Vehicle (SDV) strategies are gaining momentum. Finally, we provide key insights and lessons from the automotive and commercial vehicle sectors, with implications for E/E architectures in Ground Combat Vehicles (GCVs).</div></div>
