Automotive Domain Control Technology: Applications in New Energy Vehicles provides a solid foundation for readers to understand the technical systems of domain controllers. For more experienced readers, the book introduces advanced theoretical work and technologies. A domain controller in the automotive world is a centralized computer that manages specific functions within a vehicle, referred to as "domains." These domains can include areas such as active safety, powertrain, body and chassis and user experience. Readers are provided with comprehensive coverage of the technology: from architectural features to design methodology. The authors share their rich practical experience to enhance readers’ understanding of the technologies and their real-world applications. Relevant international standards and regulatory measures are discussed and interpreted to assist industry professionals and practitioners. The thorough, systematic approach from essential technological concepts to introducing advanced technologies situates the book as a solid introduction for senior undergraduates, and is also a valuable theoretical and practical reference resource for more experienced professionals and researchers.A comprehensive analysis of the key components and development trends in domain controller technology for new energy vehiclesCombines current theoretical development with practical application, drawn from the authors’ extensive engineering experienceProvides insights into the design methods and application characteristics of domain controllers in new energy vehiclesIntroduces the specific structural characteristics of vehicle ethernet as the central control communication method

This SpringerBrief offers a comprehensive review and in-depth discussion of the current research on resource management. The authors explain how to best utilize harvested energy and temporally available licensed spectrum. Throughout the brief, the primary focus is energy and spectrum harvesting sensor networks (ESHNs) including energy harvesting (EH)-powered spectrum sensing and dynamic spectrum access.To efficiently collect data through the available licensed spectrum, this brief examines the joint management of energy and spectrum. An EH-powered spectrum sensing and management scheme for Heterogeneous Spectrum Harvesting Sensor Networks (HSHSNs) is presented in this brief. The scheme dynamically schedules the data sensing and spectrum access of sensors in ESHSNs to optimize the network utility, while considering the stochastic nature of EH process, PU activities and channel conditions.This brief also provides useful insights for the practical resource management scheme design for ESHSNs and motivates a new line of thinking for future sensor networking. Professionals, researchers, and advanced-level students in electrical or computer engineering will find the content valuable.
