The use cases address real world scenarios (e.g. servicing vehicles) in regard to the information access necessary to perform vehicle roadside assistance, inspection, diagnosis, repair and maintenance, including the updating and replacement of Electronic Control Units (ECU). The RMI systems used by personnel to perform the services consist of: — a Web-based system, which provides access to RMI needed to perform the service(s); — contact information for specific RMI; — a security framework to protect access to security related RMI. This part of ISO 18541 provides an overview of the entire standard and how it applies to the automotive industry.
