Abstract

Cluster-based management of vehicle power consumption is provided. Electrical power consumption and processing power consumption of a vehicle is optimized by dynamically determining a cluster of vehicles for the vehicle to join based on input sensor data capturing functions, sensor data processing functions, communication functions, vehicle driving functions, and interior vehicle functions. In response to the vehicle joining the cluster of vehicles, an appropriate proportion of information the vehicle is to process is determined based on current input sensor data capturing functions, sensor data processing functions, and communication functions the vehicle is performing and current power consumption levels the vehicle is using, and current input sensor data capturing functions, sensor data processing functions, and communication functions other vehicles in the cluster of vehicles are performing and current power consumption levels the other vehicles in the cluster are using.
