Abstract
The diagnostic system discussed in this paper provides an agent-based approach to advanced on-board diagnostics of operation and communication failures occurring in an electronic automotive system. To facilitate development and testing of agent-based automotive diagnostics, a software simulator of automotive electronics systems, also based on multi-agent technology, has been implemented, allowing the developers to simulate various automotive system failures. The paper presents both the proof-of-concept on-board diagnostics system and the simulation layer used for its development and testing. The following topics are covered: simulation of the hardware units, simulation of user-invoked hardware failures, distributed detection and diagnostics of the failures, and visualization. The proposed automotive diagnostics approach can be deployed on real automotive electronics hardware.
