Abstract:
An increasing number of vehicle functionalities, shorter development time and competitive market price constitute conflicting objectives with multiple constraints for the development of Engine Control Units (ECU). Hence, there is a need for an assessment framework to overcome the above-mentioned challenges during the design of ECUs. This paper presents an outline of an automated optimization framework that reduces the effort in the ECU design. We briefly describe the ECU requirements and an optimization approach that finds Pareto optimal solutions for defined design objectives. The preliminary results of the framework indicate a significant speed-up in the design of ECUs.
