VECTOR North America

What if commercial vehicles could evolve as fast as software? 🚛 That’s the promise of software-defined vehicles – and it starts with the right software foundation. Coretura, the SDV platform company founded by Daimler Truck AG and Volvo Group, has selected Alloy Kore as the foundational software layer for its vehicle OS. Developed by Vector and QNX, Alloy Kore brings together a safety-certified real-time operating system and pre-integrated set of common automotive system services – creating a scalable foundation for high-performance computing in commercial vehicles. And there’s more: Coretura is the first design win for Alloy Kore. With the Vector Distribution, Coretura gets a ready-to-use implementation that combines this foundation with Vector’s middleware, communication and integration capabilities. The goal is clear: reduce complexity, accelerate development and give engineering teams more freedom to focus on what truly differentiates their vehicles. Software-defined commercial vehicles need more than software. They need a foundation built to evolve.

That's a wrap on Vector Software Factory TechDay. Thank you to everyone who joined us in Novi for a full day on the modern automotive software factory, from AI-assisted engineering and E/E design to shift-left testing, diagnostics, and CI/CD pipelines. The conversations between sessions were every bit as valuable as the talks themselves. Great discussions, sharp questions, and new connections across the embedded and SDV community. That's exactly what this day was built for. To everyone we met: it was a pleasure. We're already looking forward to the next one. 📅 Missed it? Stay tuned for what's next: https://events.vector.com #SoftwareDefinedVehicle #AutomotiveSoftware #EmbeddedSystems

Finding a defect after hardware integration costs you days. Finding it before costs you minutes. Session 6 at Vector Software Factory TechDay: Embracing Shift-Left, the power of Software-in-the-Loop testing. Marcelo Omar Rosales Villado of Vector shows how virtualization moves testing early, using vVIRTUALtarget and third-party solutions for early compliance verification, connecting SiL environments with Vector's SIL Kit, and applying testing strategies like 1-3-HiL to catch defects before hardware is ever in the loop. 📅 September 16, 2026 | 2:00 to 2:30 pm ET | Novi, MI Register today - https://lnkd.in/eunGgCQb #SoftwareDefinedVehicle #AutomotiveSoftware #ShiftLeft

For years, BSW configuration meant wrestling with GUI-based tools and monolithic files maintained by hand. Session 5 at Vector Software Factory TechDay: The New AI Way of BSW Configuration and Integration. A look at Vector's configuration-as-code approach, where code-based artifacts make diffing, merging, and reuse across projects straightforward, BSW domains like OS, diagnostics, memory, and communication configure automatically, and applications integrate with timing constraints handled top-down. 📅 September 16, 2026 | Novi, MI Register Here: https://lnkd.in/eunGgCQb #SoftwareDefinedVehicle #AutomotiveSoftware #AUTOSAR

In safety-critical software, "it compiles" is nowhere near "it's compliant." Session 4 at Vector Software Factory TechDay: Robust Code Quality, a developer's guide to static analysis and unit testing. A look at enforcing MISRA and AUTOSAR coding rules with PC-lint Plus, dynamic testing and code coverage with VectorCAST, automatic test case generation, and full test automation inside your CI/CD pipeline, with AI accelerating traceable testing for regulated industries. 📅 September 16, 2026 | Novi, MI Register Now: https://lnkd.in/eunGgCQb #SoftwareDefinedVehicle #AutomotiveSoftware #FunctionalSafety

How do you keep diagnostic design from becoming a bottleneck in your Software Factory? Session 3 at Vector Software Factory TechDay: Streamlining Automotive Diagnostic Design. A look at Vector's OEM-independent diagnostic tools built for flexible ASPICE integration, from streamlined specification and configuration in CANdelaStudio, to synchronization with requirements and system design tools like PREEvision, to seamless CI/CD integration for automated diagnostic testing. 📅 September 16, 2026 | Novi, MI Register Now: https://lnkd.in/eunGgCQb #SoftwareDefinedVehicle #AutomotiveSoftware #Diagnostics
