Most innovations in today's cars happen to be in the embedded electronics. However, common component based system architectures are unable to deal with the increasing complexity and heterogeneity of many modern applications. To overcome this problem, a new event-triggered system platform is presented in this thesis. The proposed system is based on a set of uniform high-capacity control units that are connected over switched Ethernet. Further, virtualization is used to isolate critical functions (i.e., those featuring real-time or safety requirements) from non-critical ones. A holistic technique is presented to analyze the system's real-time behavior. In addition, to perform an optimized task allocation onto control units, different algorithms considering fault-tolerance mechanisms are introduced and studied in detail.
