METHOD FOR THE TRANSPARENT REPLICATION OF A SOFTWARE COMPONENT OF A SOFTWARE SYSTEM

摘要

The invention describes a method for the transparent replication of a software component (SWC1) of a software system (SWC1, SWC2), in particular according to the AUTOSAR standard, in a computation system comprising two or more processing units (VEA, VEB). The processing units (VEA, VEB) are connected to one another, by means of one or more communication channels (KK1, KK2), for the purpose of interchanging data. Each of the processing units (VEA, VEB) comprises a runtime environment (RTE) in which respective runtime environments (RTE) of the processing units (VEA, VEB), which are to be replicated, are provided with a synchronization and selection functionality (Sync, Voting).
