BERLIN, March 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenSynergy announces the successful porting and availability of its COQOS Hypervisor SDK to the STMicroelectronics Stellar family of Integration MCUs. The Berlin-based software company has worked closely with STMicroelectronics to demonstrate that its automotive virtual platform 'COQOS Hypervisor SDK for real-time processors' picks up the hardware virtualization in the Stellar products and extends it. With this virtualization technology automotive manufacturers can reliably execute multiple functions and various software services on a single piece of hardware, securely separated from other functions. This approach forms the technical basis for the coming generations of domain and zonal architectures. 

Key Points: 
  • This approach forms the technical basis for the coming generations of domain and zonal architectures.
  • Future architectures will favor the spatial aggregation of functions, such as zonal computers as it reduces the cabling throughout the vehicle.
  • An example of an application with COQOS Hypervisor SDK running on the Stellar is the Zonal Front Computer.
  • This next generation of EE architectures can thus address the growing complexity of vehicles, changing the vehicle architectures of the future.
