ASAM GDI Filling

Solutions Guide 2007
It is necessary to implement clear and simple
software structures in order to develop the
GDI drivers regarding standardized
functionality, high performance at low use of
resources and reusability of sub-components.
This can be achieved in a better way if the
DCD is developed with the collaboration of
the partner which is responsible for the
development of the driver and which can
bring in the required process competence.
Questions about the ASAM specification
could be discussed quickly due to an
intensive exchange with experts, e.g. rd
electronic gmbh, and proposals for the
solution could be prepared.
Business benefits
Starting from the development process of the
Companion standards to the application of the
ASAM GDI drivers a thinking process is initiated
which shows much subsequent potential.
Available potentials after development:
• Standard documented process on a
high level
• Standardized interface between testing
system and filling process
• Filling process can now be influenced by
the authoring tool for testing processing
• The device interface of the ASAM GDI
drivers is developed in a way that devices
of other suppliers can be operated, too.
The depth of detail of the “Companion”
and the realization about a relatively
identical process permit this. The expense
for adjustment to the filling devices is little.
Subsequent potentials:
A definition of uniform hardware is possible
after definition of a uniform process
• Uniform specifications and bid documents
• Efficient testing equipment for
acceptance procedures.
• Competitive comparisons of filling devices
are possible in “Companion” detail depth.
