The controller also is configured to control the communication using a data distribution service (DDS) and with the network operating as a time sensitive network (TSN). The controller is configured to direct a first set ofthe vehicle devices to communicate using time sensitive communications, a different, second set ofthe vehicle devices to communicate using best effort communications, and a different, third set ofthe vehicle devices to communicate using rate constrained communications.
