In this seminar, prof. Jens Weiland will give a lecture on the latest developments in AUTOSAR (abstract below). After that, we'll have a panel discussion about the relevance of Adaptive AUTOSAR for autonomous driving. In particular, we will be comparing with Robot Operating System (ROS), which we are using for Waterloo autonomous car (http://autonomoose.net). 

Abstract

The session will give an introduction to modeling dynamic systems in MapleSim.

The University of Waterloo now ows an autonomous vehicle research platform called "Autonomoose". 

The car, a 2015 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, is equipped with sensors and drive-by-wire system to allow for sensing the environment and programmatically controlling the car.

A few CREATE students participate in the project to develop an autonomous shuttle for UWaterloo campus ring-road. 

For more information, see autonomoose.net website.

On May 25, 2016, we are beginning a 5-lecture technical course on Automotive Software Engineering with AutoSAR. The course is recommended to all CREATE participants. Registration is required.

The main topics of the course include:

On May 3, 2016, we are hosting a training session "Safety Cases for Self-Driving Cars". The session is recommended for all CREATE participants.
