From Delphi

Goldilocks is a proposed serial communication protocol designed to find the "sweet spot" in trading off overhead, complexity, throughput, cost, and real time performance. Simple off line analysis of schedulability is a feature.. While backward compatible with CAN at the applications level, Goldilocks promises to be performance and feature competitive with FlexRay with less complexity and cost.
