What Intelligent Edge hardware development topics would YOU like to see discussed?

jonmikeli Thanks for the question. I'm on the Microsoft Connected Vehicle Platform (MCVP) team. We are working with several Automotive OEMs on putting together a Vehicle-Computer Architecture with Automotive Extensions. If you know much about the automotive space, you'll know that there is a lack of "standards' in this industry.  We hope to provide more documented guidance on this in the near future.

The MCVP is also working with several Tier-1's to help them spec out hardware for the OEMs that would do more than just "meet the requirements".  This would include helping them with how to support the many computational workloads within a vehicle, including, but not limited to, safety, infotainment, human interaction, productivity, virtual assistant, autonomous driving, etc. Some vehicles may only have some of these, other may more or all. Different loads require different solutions, so we recommend that there be different vehicle-computers to support the various workloads for that specific vehicle. 

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks again for asking.
