The following is a list of features that are the topics for describing the functional requirements.
# | Item | Description | ||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Services Launch / Termination | When using IVI, it’s required that not only the system is launched at boot time, but also the services that will be used are launched. This is because the necessary services need to be launched for the user to use the application and for the system to work. Similarly, when the system terminates, the services that have been already launched should also be terminated. | ||||||||||
2 | System Anomaly Detection
| IVI system needs the ability to detect anomalies and maintain a normal state. For this purpose, the functional requirements to detect anomalies and to deal with anomalies are defined. In this section, we classify the functions for System Anomaly Detection into two categories. Service Anomaly" and "Resource Anomaly". "Service Anomaly" represents an abnormality at the time of service startup or service use and "Resource Anomaly" represents an abnormal state such as a resource state that exceeds a specified value. | ||||||||||
3 | System Logging Support | In the use of IVI products, it is necessary to collect and centrally manage logs created in multiple places in the system, which are records of various events and times that occurred in systems. The reasons to keep logs are for security measures or information gathering and decision making in the operation, management and countermeasure for anomalies of the product system. | 4 | Power State Management | On vehicle power state transitions(like ACC On/Off) or other use cases, IVI should receive the power state transition requests. In such cases of state transition, it is necessary to have a mechanism to manage the services running on IVI and notify the transition request.||||||||
5 | Backup data management | Data needs to be secured in products to prevent data corruption due to failures. Backing up the necessary data on a regular basis will help maintain the reliability of the product. | ||||||||||
6 | Message notification and IPC | This section describes the functions that are necessary to interact with each function and process unit when using the product. For example, when an anomaly occurs in a system, there may be a case where the anomaly is messaged. The requirements for the function to notify messages for such cases are described. In addition, we will focus on and describe communication functions, such as functions to communicate between processes. | ||||||||||
7 | Common process of extended devices control | 8 | CAN communication | 9 | GPS or Sensor information | 10 | RPC | 11 | Getting vehicle parameter | 12 | Supporting system callBasesystem | A group of software located in a layer close to Operating System. As an asset of Toyota, it has been contributed to AGL in March 2021. |
2 | IVI | In-Vehicle-Infotainment. | ||||||||||
3 | IVI system | The system for booting IVI up. | ||||||||||
4 | ACC(Accessory) | The power source that supplies electricity to the IVI and other electrical components.When ACC is turned on, the information is sent to IVI and IVI is activated. In addition to ACC, there are other power sources such as +B and IG in general. | ||||||||||
5 | HMI | Human Machine Interface. In particular, this document refers to the Interface, which is operated by the user on the IVI. | ||||||||||
6 | Heartbeat | The function to confirm the behaviors by the regular communication between the two processes. | ||||||||||
7 | Resident service | A service that launches automatically at system startup. The Resident service is always running while the IVI is running, and provides functions as needed. | ||||||||||
8 | Non-resident service | A service that is activated by a request from an application. The non-resident service is not activated except when it is requested to be activated as needed. | ||||||||||
9 | Service launcher | A function to launch services. | ||||||||||
10 | Service terminator | A function to terminate services. | ||||||||||
11 | Service Failure Detection and Procedure module | The module with the ability to detect failure in system and provide the procedure like restoring or storing logs. | ||||||||||
12 | System Logging Support module | The module to leave a log in a specified location in the IVI system when a request to leave a log is received. | ||||||||||
13 | Backup Data Management module | The module with the ability to store data permanently in the IVI system. | ||||||||||
14 | Vehicle Parameter Configuration module | The module with the ability to provide necessary information in response to a request from a service to acquire necessary environmental variables, or to determine whether an IVI product supports various functions and return the results to the service. | ||||||||||
15 | CAN communication module | The module for CAN data processing between other ECUs and applications. | ||||||||||
16 | GPS | Global(Satellite) Positioning System | ||||||||||
17 | Sensor data | Gyroscope, Accelerometer, Speed pulse, vehicle reverse info, etc. | ||||||||||
18 | GPS and Sensor Communication module | The module with the ability to get and send GPS data or Sensor data to necessary applications. |
