Common control apparatus and vehicle control system
First Claim
1. A common control apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of controllers for providing processing; and
an interface unit for interfacing with the plurality of controllers in terms of establishing communication, wherein information is acquired from and provided for each of the plurality of controllers through the interface unit independently from processing of each of the controllers; and
a common control unit for managing the plurality of controllers that control respective function domains of controlled objects in a vehicle by performing common control that is common for the plurality of controllers through the interface unit, whereinthe plurality of controllers respectively perform behavior control of controlled objects in the function domains,the common control is independent from the behavior control of the controlled objects, andthe common control apparatus serves as a vehicle control apparatus for use in a vehicle.

Abstract
A common control unit in an intra box performs common control that is independent from behavior control for controlled objects extracted from function domain controllers. A control condition management unit manages control conditions that are commonly used by the function domain controllers for performing the behavior control. An inspection unit inspects abnormality of the behavior control by the function domain controllers. A resource management unit manages distribution as well as residue amount, storage, and use restriction of commonly owned resource. A plug and play management unit manages system configuration of a vehicle control system. By using the above units, the vehicle control system reduces processing load of function domain controllers for performing the behavior control in respective function domains as well as adaptation operation of the function domain controllers to the system configuration.
