Abstract:
A system is provided for updating vehicle software configurations for multiple vehicles. The system includes a network having multiple ECUs carried by the vehicles, with each ECU having an ECU software configuration including software components with one or more versions. The system further includes a network appliance having a processor communicating with the ECUs and a computer readable medium. The processor is programmed to identify coverage points for software components. The processor is further programmed to collect clusters for validating an update of the associated software components and determine optimal sets of clusters, which is less than or equal to a total of the clusters. The processor is further programmed to rank the clusters of the selected optimal set, based on a vehicle coverage percentage of each cluster, and transmit the optimal set for software configuration validation and then finally transmit the validated update to the associated vehicle ECUs.
