Abstract
A software system for use in an electronic control unit (ECU) is designed to facilitate its reuse without redesigning of triggers even when a target hardware is changed. The design of the software system includes a classification of trigger types into two categories, that is, a function trigger and a software trigger, and combination of the function trigger to the software tasks in addition to the association of the function triggers with the software triggers for hardware independent design of the software system.
