Abstract
A technique is specified for configuring an electronic control unit having intercommunicating applications which have been arranged in various partitions and to which differing safety integrity levels have been assigned. According to one method aspect, the communications behavior of the applications assigned to the differing partitions amongst themselves is analyzed, in order to identify data-writing and data-reading applications that are not located in the same partition. Subsequently, a shared memory area for the intercommunicating applications is configured, and a to communications data structure for the applications is generated. The communications data structure is at least partially arranged in the shared memory area.
