The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for starting or stopping a motor-driven motor vehicle having motor functions () and motor-independent vehicle functions () which can be used independently of the type of drive and independently of the type of motor start or motor stop. For a start operation or a stop operation, at least one command to the motor functions () to start or stop the motor () of the motor vehicle is imparted by the vehicle functions () via an interface (). At least one status datum as to the motor () and/or the motor functions () is transmitted by the motor functions () via the interface () to the vehicle functions.

Method and arrangement for starting or stopping a motor-driven vehicle

A method and a device for controlling a vehicle, in which a coordinator forms an acceleration variable for the drive train and/or a setpoint acceleration variable that is realized by the brake control, from at least two setpoint acceleration variables.

Method and device for controlling a vehicle

An electronic system for a vehicle includes first components for carrying out control tasks in response to operating sequences and second components that coordinate a cooperation of the components for carrying out control tasks. The first components carry out the control tasks by using operating functions and basis functions, wherein the system is constructed such that the basis functions are combined in a basis layer, and a system layer is superimposed on the basis functions, which includes at least two of the second components. At least one open interface of the system layer is provided for the operating functions, and the system layer links the basis functions to any and all operating functions, such that the operating functions can be interconnected and/or used in a modular fashion.

Electronic system for a vehicle and system layer for operational functions

A method and an arrangement for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle are suggested. In a first step, input quantities, which are independent of the drive unit, are applied to form a first input quantity. In a second step, a second input quantity is formed from at least this first input quantity and at least one engine-specific input quantity, the second input quantity influencing at least an actuating quantity of the drive unit. In addition, an interface is described between the engine-independent part and the engine-specific part of the engine control.

Method and device for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle

A method and a device for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle are provided, in which, in addition to the selection variable for an output variable of the drive unit, another setpoint variable representing the required dynamic setting of the output variable is preselected. The manipulated variable of the drive unit to be influenced is selected on the basis of the selection variable and the additional setpoint variable.

A method and a device for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle are provided, setpoint selection variables and characteristic variables being received, which represent the way the setpoint selection variable is set. In a coordinator, setpoint selection variables and characteristic variables are coordinated independently from one another and one of the variables is selected, on which the control of the drive unit is based. In a converter, the selected setpoint selection variable and characteristic variable are converted into control signals, the control signals being selected on the basis of the setpoint selection variable and the characteristic variable, optionally considering further operating variables, for example, the operating state of the drive unit.

A computer system for controlling the operation of a drive of a motor vehicle includes a plurality of different predetermined components each including at least one functional unit. Such components include a first component representing the motor vehicle as a whole and second component representing the drive. A plurality of interfaces is interposed between these components, being operative for transmitting data between such components. At least one storage stores information concerning such components and interfaces. The functional units mentioned above and the vehicle as a whole are controlled by controlling the above-mentioned components inclusive of the first component. In performing the control, request signals and inquiry signals are generated and transmitted through the interfaces between the components. The operation of the drive is controlled in dependence on the data exchanged between the components through the interfaces.
