Subject(s): Abstract: Idag är plattformen för fordonstelematiktjänster i huvudsak sluten och baserad på privatägda lösningar. Detta förhindrar potentiella tredje parts-leverantörer från att bidra till en ökning av tillgängliga tjänster vilket skulle vara fördelaktigt både för fordonstillverkare och slutanvändare. Resultaten från ROBUST E2E kommer erbjuda viktig kunskap om hur en mer öppen plattform kan designas utan att kompromissa med systemets robusthet. Dessutom kommer förståelsen bland olika aktörer som fordonstillverkare, nätverksleverantörer och tredje parts-leverantörer öka för hur telematiktjänster utvecklas över hela tjänstekedjan.

The use of 3rd party software typically means that the design and source-code of the software is unavailable, which puts strong demands on the system architecture to ensure the trustworthiness of the core vehicle services even if some 3rd party software misuses the interfaces to the system. Moreover, since a telematics service involves several stakeholders and system, it is vital to consider the end-to-end robustness of a service. The aim of ROBUST E2E is to investigate robustness aspects of vehicle telematics services end-to-end and especially in the presence of 3rd party software. Today the vehicle telematics service platform is mainly closed and based on proprietary solutions. This prevents potential 3rd party suppliers from contributing to the growth of available services which would be beneficial for both OEMs and end users. The results from ROBUST E2E will provide important knowledge of how a more open platform can be designed without compromising robustness. Moreover, a better understanding of how telematics services are to be developed end-to-end involving all stakeholders (OEMs, network providers, 3rd party suppliers) will be achieved.
