Automotive Grade Linux Software Architecture for Automotive Infotainment System

A rapid increase in the development of electric and connected vehicles has led to a complete revolution in the automotive industry; thus new solutions are needed to meet the rapid innovation in the entire industry while reducing the time to market and engineering costs. The main objective of this paper is to provide an open-source solution for Automotive In-Vehicle Infotainment to create a fast-innovating ecosystem and to reduce software time to market. Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) is a shared platform mainly used for In-Vehicle Infotainment systems (IVI), used by the automakers and suppliers to reduce fragmentation and to reuse the same code base, thus leading to rapid innovation and faster time-to-market for new products.
