4 features that define a good conformance testing suite for EVCCs

As automakers launch electric vehicle models to meet global consumer needs, the need to find a comprehensive conformance testing suite for compliance with diverse charging standards has never been stronger.

The global outlook for the electric vehicle market is complex and driven by regional factors. According to McKinsey’s Electric Vehicle Index (EVI) for 2019 and the first quarter of 2020, Europe continues to see strong growth, while China and the USA have seen a drop in sales due to changes in government policy, as well as the Covid-19 pandemic.

“EV growth will pick up again if OEMs and Tier 1s closely monitor each market for changes in infrastructure, regulation and customer preference”

In the longer term however, McKinsey holds that growth will pick up again if OEMs and Tier 1s closely monitor each market for changes in infrastructure, regulation and customer preference.

As automakers gear up to meet these challenges, making sure new models of EVs are compliant with varying charging standards across the world is a key issue they will need to tackle. A comprehensive conformance testing suite for EVCCs must:

a) Be Compliant with leading industry-standard tools such as dSPACE

b)Include and cover all industry standards

c)Have modular architecture which can accommodate additional use cases of the on- board charger, if required by clients

d)Last but not least, be able to work on different hardware and software combinations.

Why KPIT?

The conformance testing suite developed by KPIT using industry-standard tools brings with it all these features. In addition to being easy to use, it can be customized without difficulty or extended to include additional test cases apart from the ones mentioned in the standard. The conformance testing suite is part of KPIT smart charge solutions that offer a customizable and scalable EVCC platform for OEMs and Tier1s.

Customizable and scalable EVCC platform by KPIT for OEMs and Tier1s help accelerate Time to Market and reduce the overall engineering cost by ~ 20%

KPIT smart charge solutions are AUTOSAR compliant, offer ASPICE compliant software development process, and have a reference hardware design ready for the charger. Most importantly, smart charge solutions help accelerate OEM’s and Tier1’s Time to Market and reduce the overall engineering cost by ~ 20%.

World building Wednesday: Academia in Evelow

This week I want to talk about higher education in Evelow ! There's the standard grade levels stuff (elementary, high schools, etc.) but I want to talk about colleges, that's more interesting lol

of course college isn't necessary for Evelonians, but because Evelow is such a hot pot of history, art, and science, there's lots of opportunities to learn more.

map of Evelow for reference. Ignore the landmarks outside the city.

There are two community colleges, one for the east village and one for the west village. If you don't live in one of these villages and you don't want to commute, there are online courses available. They're sister schools so they're just called east village and west village community colleges (evcc and wvcc).

Since many of my ocs live in the east village, some of them are currently enrolled. Heidi is taking some general courses and may or may not transfer to university, but she also thinks university is kind of a scam, so she's indecisive.

Advik is also taking art classes there. Which, speaking of art classes...

There's an art school in the golden district. (You can't see the tiny font, but it's at the top of the map) The Golden district is already a major hub for the arts, so no wonder they'd have the art school there. Music, theater, etc. is all found here.

Also, no. Advik did not want to live in the golden district. Which is why he doesn't want to go to the "bigger fancier" art school.

There's one university, but it's rather large and includes graduate programs. University of Evelow, what a title. It's located downtown, but they have a satellite campus in the East Village, which is where Avery currently goes for her masters degree in history. (I had an accompanying picture for this in mind, but I don't have time to start that today, so we may see it later this week lol)

With this in mind I just wanted to make a collection of all of my ocs currently in school:

As mentioned, Heidi is at EVCC for communication and Advik for fine arts

Avery is at Uni (I really don't want to call it UE..) for masters in History. The academics have had conflicts with the scholars (those are two different things, yes, i can explain) and since Avery has worked in the temple, she is at a crossroads

Echo is pursuing their doctorates in genetics. Just because their clone has the degree doesn't mean Echo is automatically entitled to it. Clone laws only get you so far, you have to earn some things lol

Ian is at Uni for communication. (Heidi rolls her eyes)

Celeste takes a class or so at the university for funsies. She's not intending on majoring in anything, she just likes learning about the world.

The Future of WSU Everett-Introducing the Degree Partnership Program

Where did WSU Everett students go? In 2017, Washington State University opened the doors to their newest campus. The WSU Everett building cost roughly $64.6 million. It houses state-of-the-art engineering labs, modern amenities, and offers nine programs. The one things it is missing is students. COVID-19 shook the world to its core and WSU Everett’s enrollment rates declined. Countrywide, over 1.4 million students in higher education were lost since the pandemic began. So how is WSU healing now? On Nov. 28, 2022, WSU Everett Chancellor Paul Pitre and EvCC President Darrell Chain signed an agreement called the Degree Partnership Program(DPP). "The DPP will launch in Fall 2023 with the Business Administration and Hospitality Business Management programs." It will eventually extend into more programs at WSU Everett. The transfer process will be streamlined: Students at EvCC will be able to transfer their credits as they complete them and follow a more specific pathway to their four-year degree.

Woop, there it is: we’re sitting here waiting in the lobby of the EvCC-campus CHC clinic, listening to a loud, insistent prescription-opioid addict demanding from the receptionist that her oxycodone & muscle-relaxant prescriptions be printed on paper asap & given to her personally, even though those are usually sent electronically to the pharmacy… 🤷🏻‍♀️

The Man in the Glass Box: WSU Everett Student is Finding His Way to Success

Assignment #1 Curiosity

Matthew Dollison was stumped. He stared at the equations on the board and looked around at the other students in his math class.  Dollison had hoped to pursue engineering but very quickly was realizing this was not the path for him. He turned to the people at his table and told them, “I’m just going to the bathroom real quick.” He slung his backpack over his shoulder and walked out of Everett Community College, fully intending not to return at all.

Dollison had initially graduated from EvCC’s Advanced Manufacturing and Education Center (AMTEC) and landed a job in precision machinery. His father had worked for McDonnell Douglas, an aerospace manufacturing corporation, so it seemed only natural that Dollison work in the trades as well. In 2019, the company Dollison worked for went bankrupt. “They had all of us gather in the parking lot and then they laid us off all at the same time,” he said.

Dollison had a new opportunity to rewrite himself. Though he could have looked for another precision machinery job, he switched gears and returned to school. “Engineering wasn’t clicking with me, but then when I left that class there was a student that stopped me in the parking lot and asked if he could interview me. “

Colin Burns, a student staff writer for The Clipper, may have caught Dollison at the perfect time. Burns was writing a piece called “Loneliness on Campus” about the feeling of isolation during the pandemic. “I asked him what exactly The Clipper was and he told me it was the student newspaper, which piqued my interest. It reinvigorated that feeling again,” said Dollison.

“Even though the money was great, and I was utilizing skills I learned in high school and trade school, I never felt fulfilled,” said Dollison. The journalism program at EvCC provided Dollison a new way to express himself. He ended up joining The Clipper in 2020and wrote about topics he was truly interested in, “mainly mental health and student life on campus (and) what it was like to be a student during the pandemic.” Dollison graduated in the spring of 2021 and transferred to Washington State University Everett in the fall of that same year.

 “I always believed my communication skills and creativity should be utilized, but I just didn’t know how. At the time I was already making music and beats so I decided I might venture into a field that allowed me to grow those passions.”

Dollison makes and sells his own music and beats using BeatStars, a music streaming platform where he can license and sell beats. “I’ve sold albums,” said Dollison, “they sell for anywhere between 300 and 600 bucks. When I make beats and do graphic design on my own, I have my own grand scheme of things...to be very versatile in my own creations.”

On top of producing beats, Dollison is a full-time student at WSU Everett in the Integrated Strategic Communications program, a student-worker, a graphic design intern, and a package handler for FedEx. Brandon Buckingham, Program Coordinator at WSU Everett and Dollison’s manager, states that, “Matt is an incredibly driven and creative individual. When we hired him (in 2021) he was working two jobs and yet he gives it his all.” Dollison is an office assistant for Buckingham. “He’s approachable which is very important because of where he sits…up on the second floor behind glass.” Buckingham also adds, “I’m absolutely excited to see where he goes in life.”
