Traffic analyzer for automotive communication protocols

The frames exchanged between various ECUs in the car have certain meanings. This is hard to decipher when reading only HEX values. The project has the goal to develop a tool that can ease the analysis efforts. The tool shall be able to parse frames used for diagnosis (over CAN communication protocol) and to identify the meaning of the frames. The frames will be interpreted (hex to text) based on a dictionary described in XML format. One of the challenges in the communication technologies is to adjust the right size of the bus. In theautomotive industry, the information exchanged on the bus (IDs, data, recurrence of messages) is described in a.dbc file. The project goal is to develop a tool which shall be able to calculate on theoretical basis the bus load of a certain bus, based on the information in.dbc file. The main use case of the tool is to calculate the busload, based on different scenarios that are described by user in format to be defined in XML file. The goal of the project is to extend the current functionality of a previous project which is able to simulate some DC motors. The extension of the functionality will imply the optimization of the power consumption and HW updates on existing board plus some updates in the SW routines. The purpose of the project is to develop a microcontroller code that will control the voltage of a solenoid based on the adc readings of the coil voltage. The solenoid is a transducer device that covert energy into linear motion, usually represents the actuator part of a relay. The project implies creating a simplified bootloader that is able to load and execute an application from RAM. The application should be able to run on two tasks at least. The bootloader is a low level application that runs when the microprocessor is initializing. The main purpose of the bootloader is to load the main software application. The bootloader loads the application via a standard communication protocol(e.g.:CAN,RS232) The goal of the project is to implement the scripts for a Matlab application. The scripts should generate test vectors based on the given Matlab model hierarchy. The software is becoming more & more complex and it is difficult to test it. The target of this project is to take the scripts and put them in an agreed format so that they can be introduced in a tool that search scripts by the their functionality. The manual testing is tedious and time consuming, so a script for generating testvectors for existing code is necessary. The script will analyze the structure of the code, determine the unreachable code, and generate testvectors for reaching 100% coverage. The required steps to achieve this target are: - Browse trough existing scripts and understand their functionality - Design a general format for the scripts - Adapt the scripts to the format and add necessary comments to the scripts - Introduce the scripts into the search tool - Improve the search toolerce,e-banking etc.

Graphical User Interface for DOORS Database

The project should include the following features: - Import data from xls to DOORS Database depending on some conditions. - Incorporate already existing scripts for generating DTC List document that is being sent to Customer (Daimler) At this moment we receive the attributes for DTC information from the customer in an Excel file. In order to be compliant with our development cycle we should have this information in our requirements database, in - C programming skills - OOP knowledge DOORS. Therefore we need an automated mechanism to introduce this information from Excel file to the DOORS data base. - Basic knowledge about web based systems IBM Rational DOORS is requirements management software optimized for the needs of complex and embedded systems development.IBM Rational DOORS software enables you to capture, trace, analyze and - Experience with GUI interface manage changes to requirements and helps you to demonstrate compliance to regulations and standards. A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set in a vehicle's onboard computer when a fault occurs in any monitored system. The code number corresponds to the type of fault, and can be used to diagnose the problem. When an engine is running and the computer detects a problem in one of its sensor or output circuits, or even within itself, it will set a trouble code. In some systems, the trouble code number is retained in memory. In others, the trouble code is not stored but is regenerated when a mechanic runs the system through a special self-diagnostic test.

In Continental we often organize photography contest. The current intranet web based implementation does not allow us to have a user friendly interface for viewing, voting and classification of the photos. The idea of this project is to create an intranet interface which will provide the possibility to vote the favorite photos participating in a photography contest. The project should be able to do a classification based on the Interface for photography contests score obtained by each photo. (for voting, preview and classification) It should: - be base on a web dedicated language; - have an interactive graphical interface - be integrated in our intranet. - be generic so it could be reused also in other vote casts or purposes.

- Programming skills in graphical programming language or C programming skills - Basic knowledge about web based systems - Preferred programming languages: PHP, HTML, CSS, Mysql - Experience with GUI interface

Web application for training management and video sharing

Inside large organizations like Continental Automotive Iasi, there is the need to centrally manage (plan and implement) the required training programs and the skills of the people. The simplest way to achieve this goal - Basic knowledge about web is to create databases and to permanently update them. Using a web based application it is the easiest way to based systems grant access to the database for all persons involved and to offer a simple to use & friendly GUI. - Preferred programming The usage of video content is helpful to spread knowledge, to provide quick access to the existing technical languages: PHP, CakePHP know-how. It also allows colleagues from the same or from a different team to share concepts and ideas that HTML, CSS, Mysql they have developed. - Experience with GUI interface The scope of the project is to take-over some existing variants of the above described applications and to add new features.
