Abstract

The vehicle industry is experiencing an increased product complexity based on the development of electronics. Systems that earlier were stand-alone are now dependent on each other and design changes in one system are therefore reflected and must be considered in other systems. One trend in the development of embedded and distributed systems is model based development (MBD). MBD through the use of CAD-tools permeates most organizations nowadays, but MBD of multi-disciplinary systems like distributed control systems is less common. The use of MBD is unequally utilized in different organizations. Three drivers for introducing MBD are discussed and suggested: maturity, standardization and complexity of the product.

Keywords: knowledge management, model based development, mechatronics, system integration
