AI-Assisted AUTOSAR Configuration Generator

Accelerating Automotive ECU Development with AI-Powered AUTOSAR Configuration

This project demonstrates an innovative integration between MATLAB's Model Context Protocol (MCP) Client, Large Language Models (LLMs), and AUTOSAR configuration workflows. It enables automotive software engineers to generate and configure AUTOSAR components using natural language, significantly reducing development time and potential configuration errors.

🎯 Project Goals

Automotive Industry Challenges Addressed:

• Configuration Complexity: AUTOSAR configurations for modern ECUs involve hundreds of parameters across multiple BSW modules
• Time-to-Market Pressure: Manual configuration is time-consuming and error-prone
• Knowledge Gap: Domain expertise required for optimal parameter selection
• Validation Overhead: Ensuring consistency across CAN, NvM, OS, and other stacks

Solution Benefits:

• ✅ ~70% Time Reduction: Automate repetitive configuration tasks through natural language
• ✅ Error Prevention: AI-guided parameter validation and consistency checks
• ✅ Knowledge Democratization: Enable less experienced engineers to create valid configurations
• ✅ Rapid Prototyping: Quickly iterate on ECU architecture designs

Key Components:

1. MCP Server (Python/Flask)

   • Exposes RESTful API endpoints compatible with MCP standard
   • Implements AUTOSAR configuration tools (CAN, NvM, OS, etc.)
   • Mock mode for accessibility (no EB tresos license required)
   • Extensible to real EB tresos command-line integration

2. MATLAB Client

   • Leverages openAIChat for GPT-4 integration
   • MCP HTTP Client for server communication
   • Agentic workflow: Parse query → Select tools → Execute → Validate
   • Interactive demo scripts with example use cases

3. AUTOSAR Configuration Engine

   • Template-based ARXML generation
   • Parameter validation against AUTOSAR standards
   • Support for common ECU modules: CAN, LIN, NvM, OS, BSW

💡 Usage Examples

Example 1: CAN Interface Configuration

Natural Language Query:

Configure a CAN interface for a powertrain ECU operating at 500 kbps 
with extended error handling and 8 message objects for engine control

Generated AUTOSAR Configuration:

• CAN Controller with 500 kbps baudrate
• Error handling mechanisms (Bus-Off recovery, error passive mode)
• 8 CAN message objects with optimal mailbox allocation
• Interrupt configuration for real-time performance

Example 2: NvM Fault Logging Setup

Natural Language Query:

Set up NvM blocks for fault logging with 100 fault codes, 
immediate write for critical faults, and wear-leveling

Generated Configuration:

• NvM block configuration with appropriate size
• Immediate vs. deferred write strategies
• CRC protection and redundancy settings
• EEPROM wear-leveling parameters

Example 3: Multi-Module Configuration

Natural Language Query:

Create a complete BSW stack for a body control module with:
- CAN at 250 kbps
- LIN master at 19.2 kbps
- NvM for 50 parameters
- OS with 5ms task cycle

🔧 Technical Details

MCP Server Endpoints

Supported AUTOSAR Modules (Mock Mode)

• ✅ CAN: Controller, message objects, baudrate, error handling
• ✅ NvM: Block configuration, storage strategies, CRC
• ✅ OS: Tasks, alarms, resources, scheduling
• 🔄 LIN: Master/Slave configuration (planned)

MATLAB Workflow

% 1. Initialize MCP Client
mcpClient = MCPClient('http://localhost:5000');

% 2. Initialize LLM with system prompt
llm = openAIChat('gpt-4', SystemPrompt=systemPrompt);

% 3. Process natural language query
userQuery = "Configure CAN for powertrain at 500 kbps";
response = llm.generate(userQuery);

% 4. Parse tool calls and execute
toolCalls = extractToolCalls(response);
result = mcpClient.callTool(toolCalls.name, toolCalls.parameters);

% 5. Display generated ARXML
disp(result.arxml);

🎓 Integration with Real EB tresos

Current Implementation (Mock Mode)

• Python-based ARXML generator simulating EB tresos output
• Template-driven configuration for rapid prototyping
• No licensing requirements

Production Integration Path

For production environments with EB tresos licenses:

# Replace mock generator in autosar_utils.py with:
import subprocess

def generate_real_config(params):
    """Call EB tresos CLI for real configuration generation"""
    cmd = [
        'tresos_cmd.bat',
        '-data', workspace_path,
        '-project', project_name,
        '-import', template_path,
        '-set', f'CanBaudrate={params["baudrate"]}',
        '-generate'
    ]
    subprocess.run(cmd, check=True)
    return parse_generated_arxml()

Integration Steps:

1. Install EB tresos Studio with command-line interface
2. Create project templates for common ECU configurations
3. Update autosar_utils.py to invoke tresos CLI
4. Add validation against EB tresos schema validators

📊 Performance Benchmarks

Benchmarks based on typical powertrain ECU configuration tasks

🔬 Advanced Features

1. Agentic Reasoning

The LLM agent can:

• Break complex requests into sub-tasks
• Validate parameter consistency across modules
• Suggest optimizations based on automotive best practices
• Explain configuration choices in natural language

2. Configuration Versioning

% Track configuration changes over iterations
configHistory = mcpClient.getHistory(projectId);
mcpClient.rollback(projectId, version=3);

3. Compliance Validation

• AUTOSAR schema validation
• ISO 26262 ASIL-level checks
• OEM-specific requirement validation

🚧 Limitations & Future Work

Current Limitations:

• Mock AUTOSAR generator (not production-ready without EB tresos)
• Limited to CAN and NvM modules in demo
• No graphical configuration viewer
• Requires OpenAI API access (cost consideration)

Roadmap:

• [ ] Support for open-source AUTOSAR tools (ARCCORE, EMBARC)
• [ ] Graphical ARXML editor integration
• [ ] Local LLM support (Llama 3, Mistral)
• [ ] Simulink model auto-generation from ARXML
• [ ] Multi-ECU network configuration
• [ ] Integration with Vector tools (CANoe, DaVinci)
