PROVEtech:RE - Runtime Environment
The cost-efficient Runtime Environment for electronic control units
Planning, integration and operation of test systems is a highly complex task, involving different professions and roles. Across several development phases, product specific structures and interfaces have to be set up and operated. For these reasons the coordination effort and the associated costs can quickly rise beyond measure. Therefore the goal of all parties is to minimize the efforts of ECU testing. This demand calls for a simple, user-friendly and cost-efficient solution for usage across several development phases. Furthermore the possibility to integrate any specific hardware and software is needed.
Simulation environment from development until production
PROVEtech:RE is a compact and cost-efficient test platform, which offers a wide range of features to support the development, verification and validation of ECUs and their integration to a vehicle network system. Some key features include the residual bus simulations - the simulation of entire vehicle network for AUTOSAR ECUs, and thereby testing the behavior and functionality of ECU components and the network. The platform is modular and scalable to meet the evolving demands of the industry. It runs on Windows or Linux OS and provides tester-friendly message and signal interfaces. This allows the usage of off-the-shelf components and the re-usage of existing systems. So, the user can work in his familiar environment. The close coupling with the test automation tool PROVEtech:TA provides the user with a perfectly matched, high quality software package. This ensures a short training period, maximum efficiency and services from a single source.
