12. A method of managing delivery of diagnostic conditions associated with a vehicle telematics unit, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) configuring a task manager for monitoring diagnostic data associated with a vehicle telematics unit; (b) monitoring at the task manager at least two conditions associated with a subtask including a first condition and a second condition, the first and second conditions having a THEN relation therebetween, the first condition being on the left-side of the THEN relation, the second condition being on the right-side of the THEN relation, wherein at least one of the first or second conditions is a diagnostic condition; (c) THEN-blocking evaluation of the second condition until the first condition receives a first evaluation event and is determined to be TRUE; and (d) after the first condition is evaluated TRUE, back-blocking evaluation of the first condition until the second condition receives a second evaluation event and has been evaluated at least one time. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method of task management for a vehicle telematics unit, comprising the steps of:
-
(a) receiving at a vehicle task manager (VTM) a requested vehicle telematics unit task; (b) presetting the state of a first condition to FALSE and the state of a second condition to FALSE, wherein the first condition and the second condition have a THEN relation, the first condition being on the left side of the THEN relation, the second condition being on the right side of the THEN relation; (c) receiving one or more evaluation events at the first condition; (d) based on step (c), evaluating the first condition as TRUE or FALSE for each received evaluation event; (e) THEN-blocking any evaluation of the second condition until the first condition evaluates as TRUE; and (f) back-blocking the first condition from re-evaluating any of the one or more evaluation events received at the first condition when the first condition evaluates TRUE until the second condition has evaluated an evaluation event received at the second condition at least once. - View Dependent Claims (20)
