    Abstract: Apparatuses, storage media and methods associated with computer assisted or autonomous driving (CA/AD), are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes an interconnect to mate a pluggable compute module with an in-vehicle compute hub disposed in a vehicle to form an upgradable vehicle compute system for the vehicle, the interconnect having a fixed section and a configurable section. The fixed section includes a dynamic power delivery interface, and a management channel. The configurable section includes a plurality of configurable input/output (I/O) interfaces. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

    Abstract: For example, an apparatus may include a motherboard including a functional processing core configured to perform a functionality having a Functional Safety (FuSa) level; a FuSa transceiver configured to communicate with an external safety-island processor, which is external to the motherboard; and a FuSa controller configured to establish a FuSa connection with the external safety-island processor according to the FuSa level, to send FuSa information corresponding to the functionality of the functional processing core to the external safety-island processor via the FuSa transceiver, and to control one or more FuSa operations of the functional processing core based on one or more control messages received from the external safety-island processor via the FuSa transceiver.
