An Overview of the Controller Area Network
The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a communication bus for message transaction in small-scale distributed environments. Introduced for automotive applications plays nowadays a relevant role in the control and automation arena. This paper provides an overview ofCAN by addressing the fundamental issues concerning its physical and data-link layers.

CAN - Networking for Real-Time Systems
The Controller Area Network (CAN) was developed in the late 80's by Robert Bosch[1] as a solution for networking in distributed real-time systems. CAN supplies a high level safety, even when working in a harsh environment, and also relatively high level of data exchange (up to 1 Mbit/s).

Porting the Internet Protocol to the Controller Area Network
Dedicated non-standardized platforms and software environments require to deploy middleware solutions in distributed heterogeneous systems. In order to mask this heterogeneity and guarantee application interoperability, the middleware must provide interplay between communication technologies concealed behind a common service interface. The Internet Protocol (IP) has proven to be a promising higher level information carrier that may...

The Fast Guide to Controller Area Network (CAN) Application Layers
Controller Area Networking or CAN is a communications standard with a rather prolific set of offspring. CAN is the proud parent of DeviceNet, Can Open, Can Kingdom and several hundred other about offspring all over the world. In the US, DeviceNet dominates while Can Open and Can Kingdom have made the European mainland a home. But what is this beast and why does it have so many offspring?

Vehicle Applications of Controller Area Network
In the automotive industry,embedded control has grown from stand-alone systems to highly integrated and networked control systems [11,7 ].By net- working electro-mechanical subsystems,it becomes possible to modularize functionalities and hardware,which facilitates reuse and adds capabilities. Fig.1 shows an example of an electronic control unit (ECU)mounted on a diesel engine of a Scania truck.The ECU handles the control of...
