AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) was founded as a development partnership in 2003. AUTOSAR has been working to develop and establish an open and standardized automotive software architecture. The standard includes a set of specifications describing software architecture, application interfaces, model exchange formats, and methodology. By now, several versions of the standard have been released. The latest release 4.0 was published beginning of 2010. As AUTOSAR is currently carrying on its third development phase (2010-2012), this document gives an overview of the most important results obtained so far with a specific focus on some technologies and features introduced in the latest releases such as the support for functional safety, multi-core ar- chitectures, efficient energy management and conformance testing. The development strategy and plans developed to ensure the stability of the standard will be highlighted. Surveys show that AUTOSAR is today the global automotive software standard. A summary of the roll-out plans of the 9 Core Partners, disclosed recently will be given showing the way AUTOSAR has been introduced in series production and what is planned for the near future. In conclusion a view will be given on the perspectives after the current phase of development.
