AutoVP

In a nutshell, we make the following key contributions:

• We propose a mixed-criticality decoupled architecture to address the need for centralized deployment of various business subsystems within the intelligent cockpit domain, all while offering ease of construction, low production costs, and small performance overhead.

• We present a new Android container framework tailed for intelligent cockpits. Our work represents the latest progress in mobile container-based virtualization, and it is an ideal solution to host the non-safety-critical subsystems that require display screens for user interaction.

• Our evaluation and real-world deployment demonstrate that AutoVP is a viable in-vehicle virtualization alternative to mitigate the ongoing automotive chip crisis.

Overview of AutoVP's Architecture

The figure provides an overview of AutoVP’s architecture. AutoVP supports multiple Android containers. For example, both driver and co-driver can have their own in-vehicle infotainment systems running on isolated Android containers.
