NORTHVILLE, MI, Oct 1, 2026 – TASKING has joined SDVerse so that automakers get access to information about its embedded software development tools. Its portfolio covers compiling, debugging, tracing and testing for electronic control units, central and zonal controllers, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).
“As vehicles evolve into AI-defined platforms, the ability to build, test and validate embedded software with confidence becomes a strategic capability,” said Prashant Gulati, CEO of SDVerse. “TASKING brings deep, trusted expertise across the software development lifecycle, strengthening SDVerse with the AI-assisted tools automotive engineering teams need to manage growing software complexity, meet critical safety and security requirements, and bring next-generation vehicle programs to market faster.”
Architecture and Standards Support
TASKING’s toolchain supports processor architectures and microcontroller families including Infineon AURIX/TriCore, Arm, RISC-V and Renesas RH850. Its tools support ISO 26262 and ISO/SAE 21434 development requirements, supporting applications through ASIL D.
Engineering and procurement teams will be able to review capability through SDVerse and contact TASKING. Buyers can use the information to assess tools against their processor architectures, technical requirements and safety objectives.
The initial portfolio presented through SDVerse includes:
- Compiler toolsets for Arm, Infineon TriCore, Renesas RH850 and RISC-V.
- Debugging tools, including winIDEA and iC7 BlueBox debuggers.
- Test and verification tools, including the LDRA tool suite and Productivity Package for Automotive.
“The transition to software-defined vehicles and the availability of powerful AI are fundamentally changing how automotive software is developed,” said Gerard Vink, industry specialist at TASKING. “As software becomes more complex and development increasingly AI-assisted, engineering teams need integrated tools that help them manage performance, functional safety and cybersecurity across the entire development lifecycle. By joining SDVerse, we can make TASKING’s AI-assisted compile, debug and test toolchain more accessible to automotive development teams and engage with customers earlier as they define their next-generation vehicle architectures.”
