METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING A SELF-DRIVING CAR

A method and device for operating a Self-Driving Car (SDC) are disclosed. The device executes in real-time a first processing pipeline including generating static attributes for a plurality of potential positions of the SDC on the road segment, and caching the static attributes in association with the respective ones of the plurality of potential positions. The device executes in real-time a second processing pipeline in parallel with the first processing pipeline including generating a graph-structure for operating the SDC on the road segment. The generating the graph-structure includes generating dynamic attributes for a given edge of the graph-structure, acquiring from the cache memory static attributes for the given edge of the graph-structure, such that the given edge in the graph-structure is associated with the static attributes generated by the first processing pipeline and with the dynamic attributes generated by the second processing pipeline.
