At the the fifth Software Defined Vehicle Forum & AUTOSAR China 2024, ZD's CTO Dr. Liu Liu delivered an insightful keynote on the rapidly approaching era of Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs). His presentation offered a wealth of knowledge, reflecting years of dedicated engineering practice and a deep understanding of the evolving automotive landscape.

In the midst of the ACES trends (autonomous driving, connectivity, electrification, and shared mobility), Dr. Liu emphasized the importance of software in driving the automotive sector forward, as it plays an increasingly critical role in vehicle development, production, and after-sales services. He addressed the challenges and efficiency requirements of integrating and validating automotive electronic functions, a key issue in the context of the exponential growth of in-vehicle software complexity.

Recognizing the critical role of bus communication simulations in testing various vehicle controller functionalities, ZD's innovative data loggers facilitate remote, collaborative development across multiple geographies. Dr. Liu's post-forum interview with Gasgoo Automotive News highlighted how ZD's tools enable effective data sharing, enabling teams around the world to advance in the competitive race for intelligent mobility solutions.

Dr. Liu's remarks at the Forum, combined with the strategic insights shared in his interview, underscore ZD's commitment to fostering innovation and setting the pace for the intelligent vehicle revolution.
