Abstract :
We present a vision for the evolution of automotive diagnostics as car electronics are increasingly implemented as distributed systems. We first analyze the state of the art in the automotive development process, and we identify how distributed functionality challenges this process and leads to higher development and field maintenance costs. To address these challenges, we propose a modified development process that leverages a model-based approach. Finally, we outline future research directions for car diagnostics.
