Abstract

One challenge today in the automotive industry is to handle the increasing multitude of product variants. The after sales network has to manage an increasing amount of data in particular data related to the communication with ECUs (Electronic Control Units) described in ODX (Open Data eXchange) files. The problem of ODX files is that they contain rough communication data that is specific to each ECU, so that knowledge is not well abstracted. In order to simplify the tasks of the authors and avoid data redundancies we decided to develop an intelligent import module for the car-diagnosis software SIDIS-Entreprise developed by Siemens AG. This module is based on a multi-agent system that analyses the content of the ODX files related to the vehicle communication and classifies the ECU jobs on a abstracted functional level.
