Abstract: A system and method for transmitting a plurality of signals. The system includes a transmitting terminal configured to obtain and pack the plurality of signals in multiple signal sequences, with each of the plurality of signals having respective predefined periods. A receiving terminal is configured to receive and unpack the multiple signal sequences from the transmitting terminal. A controller is in communication with the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal and configured to store a look-up table. The look-up table includes a respective pre-identifier and respective identifier for each of the plurality of signals. The controller is configured to determine if the respective predefined periods vary in magnitude within a frame. If so, the controller is configured to obtain the respective pre-identifiers and respective identifiers for each of the plurality of signals. The multiple signal sequences are based at least partially on the respective pre-identifiers and the respective identifiers.

Abstract: A system for data processing and storage in vehicles having a zone-based, central computing in-vehicle communications network architecture, includes a zone control unit (ZCU) that receives electronic messages from one or more sensors or electronic control units (ECUs) located within a zone of the vehicle, the ZCU comprising a protocol data unit (PDU) gating module that converts the electronic messages into a plurality of PDUs, and a switch-based Ethernet network that transmits the plurality of PDUs, using Ethernet protocol frames comprising the plurality of PDUs, to a central computing platform. The central computing platform includes an Ethernet handler module that decomposes the Ethernet protocol frames into individual PDUs for storage in a shared memory. The central computing platform further includes a plurality of parsing modules that are configured to access the individual PDUs from the shared memory and perform data processing on the individual PDUs.

Abstract: A system and method for assisting vehicle parking is disclosed. The method includes transmitting, by an electronic controller of a vehicle, a parking space request. The parking space request is transmitted to a reservation system. The reservation system determines whether a parking space is available to fulfill the parking space request. The determining is based on availability information that is received from a parking infrastructure. The method also includes receiving an indication. The indication indicates whether a parking spot has been reserved to fulfill the parking space request.

Abstract: Method and system for interfacing a plurality of providers and a plurality of recipients that are independently located with a unified vehicle service framework having a quality of service filter and a broker module. A first cloud unit has at least one of the plurality of providers and the plurality of recipients. A first vehicle and a second vehicle each respectively have another at least one of the plurality of providers and the plurality of recipients. A second cloud unit has yet another at least one of the plurality of providers and the plurality of recipients. The unified vehicle service framework is configured to receive a subscription request and determine whether it is granted based in part on a quality of service score assigned by the quality of service filter. When the subscription request is granted, respective services from plurality of providers are routed through the broker module.
