Green Hills Software, the worldwide leader in embedded safety and security, announced its significant role in NXP Semiconductors’ open S32 CoreRide platform, a new industry-first vehicle software platform that greatly simplifies complex vehicle architecture development. The new platform integrates NXP’s broad hardware portfolio with Green Hills Software’s portfolio of safe and secure foundational software solutions, bringing OEMs and Tier 1s an unprecedented way to tackle vehicle architecture complexity and diversity while reducing development effort and increasing scalability.
To achieve the promising benefits of SDVs, OEMs and Tier 1s are grappling with efficiently utilizing complex heterogenous multicore processors integrated with layers of software from disparate sources. OEMs must create and maintain a vast amount of new safe and secure software, and deploy the architectures to later upgrade software on vehicles on the road. The S32 CoreRide Platform breaks the barriers of integrating hardware and software in the central compute, high-performance real-time domain/zonal controllers, and connected vehicle networks.
“NXP’s S32 CoreRide platform combined with Green Hills’ portfolio of safe and secure foundational software solutions help our customers break through the complex integration barriers of SDV development,” said Henri Ardevol, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Automotive Embedded Systems at NXP. “The ability to safely and securely consolidate open and mixed-criticality workloads makes this combination an essential software foundation for OEMs to efficiently develop and confidently deploy their SDV innovations.”
