VEOS is a PC-based simulation platform for electronic control unit (ECU) software validation in many development stages.
High Quality Simulation Results
VEOS enables integration tests without hardware but performs just as reliably as tests with hardware.
Open Platform
Integrate different artifacts and tools into an overall simulation.
SIL-HIL Transition
Coupling VEOS with HIL-simulator for hybrid simulation environments and reuse of artifacts.
Flexibility
VEOS offers automated workflow and the ability to handle different infrastructures.
What is VEOS?
VEOS is the dSPACE platform for PC-based simulation of models and virtual electronic control unit (V-ECU) and network communication. It lets you simulate a multitude of different models – from function models to networks of virtual ECUs, bus systems, and vehicle models – even in early phases of development.
VEOS runs on standard PCs, which gives function developers, software architects, and ECU testers a variety of valuable options for SIL testing during the early project phases. By Dockerization, it can be distributed in the cloud for parallel test execution.
Application Areas
As PC-based simulation platform, VEOS promotes SIL testing for the development of electronic control units (ECUs):
- Simulating a wide range of different models, such as function models, Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs), virtual ECUs (V-ECUs), and vehicle models, in the early development stages independent of any specific simulation hardware.
- For multi-model scenarios, VEOS supports importing, connecting, and running any number of function and plant models based on Simulink® or Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI), thereby extending the scope of the applications.
- VEOS is particularly suitable for carrying out integration tests as it offers a wide range of integration options, a distributed simulation and scaling, e.g. in the cloud.
High Quality Simulation Results
- Sophisticated environment models can be integrated with virtual ECUs to validate complex controller strategies or simulate and test entire virtual vehicles.
- Regardless of the content, the simulation system remains fully synchronized and the results are reproducible.
- Support of automotive Ethernet, CAN, and LIN bus communication, including bus-specific timing effects, without any additional hardware.
- VEOS and the dSPACE toolchain are ISO 26262 certified for validating safety-relevant automotive functions.
- Synchronized debugging of the source code during simulation.
Open Platform
VEOS can adapt to customers' ideas and requirements for SIL tool chains.
- Support of various model types: Simulink® and TargetLink models, FMUs, virtual ECUs, and ECU networks in a single environment directly on your PC.
- Integration of vertial HPCs or POSIX-based ECU software.
- Variable and parameter access during simulation interactively or automated (e. g. via dSPACE ControlDesk, AutomationDesk, and XIL API).
- Co-simulation interface to integrate third-party tools into VEOS simulation.
- Easy integration into cloud-based solutions for SIL testing.
SIL-HIL Transition
- HIL and SIL from a single source - We are your experienced partner and provide support.
- Easy reuse of data, tools, and models between HIL simulations and SIL testing to optimize your Return-On-Invest.
- Coupling VEOS with HIL-simulator (e. g. dSPACE SCALEXIO) for hybrid simulation environments (real and virtual ECUs).
Flexibility
VEOS allows customers to choose “best-in-class” for every aspect in their SIL testing environment.
- Support of standardized interfaces and artifacts in order to let you use the best in class tools.
- Flexible use of tooling by integrating third-party tools and artifacts.
- Deployment in your required infrastructure (e. g. Windows, Linux, Docker).
- Collaboration, and experience with major cloud providers.
- Full automation capability (e. g. via Python, CLI).
