Abstract :
Master/slave method is often adopted as a common approach in reliability testing of embedded software, which needs real-time and reliable communication between master and slave. To meet that request, this paper designed a reliable, real-time and flexible CAN-based communication protocol. In order to facilitate the test case designing with this protocol, a formula for calculating the bus load is also provided.
