J2640 Purpose: 
The purpose of this meeting is to continue the direction of developing a "recommended practice" that  addresses "generic embedded software requirements for body modules".  
This working group meeting is open and does not require SAE membership to attend - all industry software experts are welcome.

J2640 Background: 
The SAE Embedded Software Task Force is creating J2640 - an "Generic Embedded Software Requirements  Recommended Practice". 
This effort is based on input from the software experts of both the automotive  OEMs, 
the automotive electronic module supplier base, related software suppliers, and consultants to the  industry. 
There is growing interest that this potential recommended practice may be suitable for all OEMs,  module suppliers, and third-party software providers. 
Why? With the increase of in-vehicle software  continuing, a portion of the industry is requesting that the automotive embedded software engineering  community 
adopt a set of general purpose software requirements which will improve the quality of vehicle  module software. 
For example, how to use interrupts, how to apply the use of a watchdog timer, or how to  employ non-volitile memory are all addressed in this agenda.
