Abstract

An Architecture Description Language (ADL) can be described as a language designed to model a system at an architectural level with respect to its software, hardware, and communication links. Due to the increasing complexity of software systems in areas like embedded control and web-based information systems, modelling with ADLs have gained attention in the research community and in practical software development projects. The specific aim of this technical report is to provide a literature review on ADLs for automotive software systems. This literature review consequently focuses on aspects that are relevant for automotive systems like safety, reliability and modelling of Electronic Control Units (ECU).
