CREATION OF COST FUNCTION
First Claim
1. A method for creating a cost function for use in a motor vehicle, which cost function depends on at least a first and a second term, indicates a mutual relationship between said at least first and second terms, and assumes a function value, characterised in that said cost function is configured such that dependency on at least one further term can be introduced into said cost function, which will thereupon maintain said mutual relationship between said at least first and second terms and indicate a mutual relationship between said at least one further term and said at least first and second terms.

Abstract
Disclosed is a cost function that depends on at least a first term and a second term which have a mutual relationship between them. The cost function is also so configured that it is easy to expand to cover one or more further terms. The cost function is created such that when it is expanded to depend on the first term, the second term and at least one further term the cost function still maintains the same mutual relationship between the first term and the second term. The cost function also indicates a mutual relationship between the at least one further term and the first and second terms.
