The significance of embedded software systems in the automotive domain has increased dramatically during the last ten years. In contrast, today's development methods and tools applied in the automotive industry are limited in many ways. They are each restricted to certain stages of development and therefore several approaches need to be used simultaneously, they are not interoperable and most of them are not tailored to the specific needs of the automotive domain. In this paper we present an Architecture Description Language called EAST ADL that seeks to capture all information needed during development, from early analysis to implementation and evolution and meets specific automotive requirements such as support for automatic code generation in the context of common automotive hardware.
