Developing an XML Configuration Tool for DDS

Abstract

In this paper we present our developed Tool for Automobile named Auto-Tool. An automobile has a growing number of signals after adopting X-by-wire systems. Our Project consists of developing an interface to manage automobile signals. These signals are provided by captors, actuators and central processing unit. Signals are transmitted over FlexRay bus taking into consideration the specific aspects of the publish/subscribe paradigm. We give an overview of works dealing with DDS and FlexRay. We present the role of the developed Tool to deal with Quality of Service of Data Distribution Service. Each DDS entity has specific parameters and these entities are dynamic. Entities are configured according to the Topic they are interested on thanks to Auto- Tool.
