Motorola Inc hopes that it will get embedded PowerPCs into hundreds of thousands if not millions of cars made by Ford Motor Co, and IBM Corp hopes it has pulled off the same trick for its own variants of the same RISC with Daimler-Benz AG’s Mercedes -Benz unit. IBM and Mercedes will develop a new in-car network architecture that will monitor and control many parts of the vehicle, such as lights, engine and climate control. The new network architecture will be developed with particpation of automotive parts suppliers to ensure standardization.
