In the automotive domain, early-stage system emulation has become a cornerstone of modern embedded development workflows. The increasing complexity of electronic control units (ECUs) and the growing demand for functional safety have led to a widespread adoption of virtual prototyping platforms. In this context, the RISC-V instruction set architecture has gained significant traction due to its openness, modularity, and suitability for customizable embedded designs. Coupled with emulation tools such as QEMU and modeling environments like SystemC, developers can build accurate software/hardware co-simulation setups well before the physical hardware becomes available. The Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) standard and its associated FMU format enable standardized co-simulation by encapsulating models in a reusable and tool-agnostic way.
