Disclosed is a method for designing an application task architecture for an electronic control unit based on an AUTOSAR operating system that is adaptable to a plurality of microcontrollers. Prior to association with a microcontroller, the method involves developing the application task architecture by using at least one virtual core different from the one or more cores of the microcontroller, the various tasks being assigned respectively to the at least one virtual core, and associating the at least one virtual core with the one or more cores of the microcontroller so as to allocate tasks assigned to the at least one virtual core to the core or among the cores of the microcontroller.

A method for the damping of mechanical vibrations in the drive train of an internal combustion engine by detection of vibration excitations in the drive train, and adjustment of the ignition angle of the internal combustion engine in the event of the occurrence of a vibration excitation in the drive train, in order to damp the vibration in the drive train, the adjustment of the ignition angle taking place in a flexible way.

After the start of an internal combustion engine, a check is made to see whether a positive change in a measurement signal is established. A positive change is established if the measurement signal lies below a predetermined threshold value when the internal combustion engine is started. A fault entry is made if, within a predetermined time period, the positive change in the measurement signal, expressed as the difference between the measurement signal when the internal combustion engine is started and a present value of the measurement signal when the time period has elapsed, does not reach an expected value.
