Abstract: Performing an electronic simulation of an autonomous vehicle uses container instances which further provide for execution over a distributed computing system. Accordingly, there are created a simulation engine container instance and one or more system under test (SUT) container instances, the containers further configured to receive values of a set of parameters. The simulation engine container instance is connected to the one or more system under test instance containers. A set of parameter values for the set of parameters is received to be used by upon simulation engine container instance execution, and the results of the executed simulation are subsequently output. The method is then repeated using the same containers but different received set of parameters' values.

Abstract: Performing a test simulation for an autonomous vehicle may include receiving a system under test (SUT) from a user, the system under test comprising a sensor, sensor control, vehicle control logic, or other aspect of an autonomous vehicle, and providing options for the remaining aspects of the simulation from which the user may choose. The user may indicate a variable parameter, and respective simulations may be performed for a plurality of values of the variable parameter to determine values of the parameter for which the SUT functions as desired, and values of the variable parameter for which the SUT does not function as desired. Separate container instances of the simulation engine and separate respective container instances of the SUT may be created for each simulation, with each engine container instance calling to a respective SUT container.
