MOST Cooperation supports academia.
MOST® Cooperation Intensifies Partnership with Academia and Provides Teaching Material
The MOST Cooperation (MOSTCO) – the standardization organization for the leading automotive multimedia network Media Oriented Systems Transport (MOST) – enhances its partnership with academic institutions. „Academia is one essential partner of the MOST Cooperation in setting up the future roadmap for MOST Technology,“ stated Dr. Wolfgang Bott, Technical Coordinator of the MOST Cooperation. „In order to stay ahead with this innovative automotive network technology we will provide instructional material to support training on automotive network technologies. In addition, we are intensifying our partnership by collaborating more closely in research and development as well as validations and verifications of new technology aspects.“
The instruction set contains presentation slides and the electronic MOST brochure as well as the latest edition of the MOST book. On individual request, specific demos and individual support by MOSTCO members may be added. The presentation begins with an overview of MOST application examples, frames, speed grades and basics. Subsequently, a section on the MOST object model introduces the MOST Application Framework with FBlocks, functions, and operations. The device independent communication architecture will be explained and communication mechanisms such as notification, shadows, and service discovery will be shown. Next, the MOST electrical and optical physical layers and the corresponding components, as well as the Network Interface Controller, will be introduced. Following sections cover the streaming mechanisms, including allocation, bandwidth administration and connection management for both synchronous and isochronous streaming. Details of the control channel include the control message structure, transmission control, addressing on MOST, central registry, and segmentation. All academia such as colleges, universities, universities of applied science, scientific institutions, etc. will benefit from MOSTCO’s support by receiving high-level information first-hand from the experts of the world of infotainment.

About MOST Technology
MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) is a multimedia networking technology optimized for use in cars and other applications. It enables the transport of high Quality of Service audio and video together with packet data and real-time control over a single transmission medium. MOST can use plastic optical fibers (POF), coax based electrical physical layer, and shielded and unshielded twisted pair (STP/UTP) copper wires, that meet automotive environmental requirements. Today, MOST is used in over 110 car models as the communication backbone for their information and entertainment equipment.
About MOST Cooperation
The MOST Cooperation (MOSTCO) is the organization through which MOST Technology is standardized and refined so that it continues to stay abreast of the latest industry requirements. Today it consists of 16 international carmakers and more than 60 key component suppliers. They have joined together to work with the MOST Technology and to contribute to its innovation. The MOST Cooperation is prepared to embrace efforts to further develop and standardize the technology for other industries and to establish the corresponding work structures. The MOST Cooperation was founded in 1998 to standardize MOST Technology as a global standard for multimedia networking. Audi, BMW, Daimler, HARMAN and SMSC are its core partners and constitute its Steering Committee. For more information see http://www.mostcooperation.com.
