A wheel end computer, WEC, () for hosting and executing one or more motion support device abstraction modules (MSDA,) configured to monitor and/or to control operations of one or more respective motion support devices, MSDs, () on a heavy duty vehicle, where an MSDA provides a control and/or a monitoring interface between an external vehicle unit computer (VUC,), and a respective MSDs operational functionality, wherein the WEC () is arranged to identify a matching MSDA for each MSD in a set of MSDs, such that each MSD connected to the WEC is matched to a respective MSDA, and wherein the WEC () is arranged to receive a monitor and/or a control command from the VUC () for monitoring and/or controlling an MSD connected to the WEC, and to control the MSD via the respective matching MSDA.

Vehicle control architecture based on central coordination of locally applied and updatable motion support device abstractions
