Automotive Megatrends such as electric and autonomous driving, extended vehicle or remote access over the air (OTA) are leading to paradigm shifts in the E/E architecture. In our technical article "Paradigm Shift Enhances the Quality of Diagnostics", written by Markus Steffelbauer (Head of Product Management at Softing Automotive), we show, that this and the increasing number of variants of electronic control units (ECU) is leading to new challenges in vehicle diagnostics, but at the same time this development is opening up opportunities for improving the quality of diagnostics and increasing efficiency: There will be new ways of diagnostics with even cloud-based systems.
