ASAM standards can be classified into three categories. These are:
|
ASAM Automotive Electronics (AE)
|
|
AE includes ASAM MCD
(Measurement, Calibration and Diagnosis) and MSR (Manufacturer Supplier
Relationship) activities – which defines interfaces and data structures
for the automotive electronics development and test processes. |
ASAM Computer Aided Testing (CAT)
|
|
CAT standards can be used
when testing and checking of a product or a part thereof, by means of
information processing systems is needed. Computer aided testing is an
aspect of computer aided quality assurance. Our CAT suite of standards
are used for: Connecting devices and subsystems simply and smoothly
with test automation systems (ASAM GDI); Communicating data from each
operating point to the automation system where software can determine
the device characteristic values (ASAM ACI); Providing automatic
evaluation and special result computations of the data (ASAM CEA); and
Permitting a uniform modeling of application data structures, without
prescribing the physical file layout (ASAM ODS).
|
ASAM Common
|
|
In the Common area, you
will find ASAM standards which are not developed for explicit use in
one of the other classified application areas. The content of these
standards are more global to ASAM, and can be used in both AE and CAT. |
