A vehicular control system, comprising a plurality of control nodes connected to a network and control targets respectively controlled by the control nodes, for controlling each of the control targets in association with the plurality of control nodes based on a driving state of a vehicle,the vehicular control system comprising:
- a user parameter input module for inputting a user parameter corresponding to an operation of a driver;
an external parameter input module for inputting an external parameter resulting from an outside environment of a vehicle;
means for setting a plurality of objective functions for each control characteristic and calculating an internal parameter of each of the control targets from the user parameter and the external parameter;
a policy setting module for setting policies indicating a driving index of the driver for the objective functions, respectively,wherein the policy setting module is configured to include policy data of the driver based on an election by the driver of plural ones of objective functions on a display;
a parameter adjusting module for respectively weighting the plural objective functions based on the policies and including an internal parameter adjusting module for adjusting the internal parameter in accordance with the policies to optimize the internal parameter among the plural weighted objective functions,wherein the internal parameter indicates the shift of the individual values on each objective function, the internal parameter adjusting module compares the shifts of the values between the plurality of objective functions for each internal parameter, and the internal parameter is adjusted based on the comparison result; and
an output module for issuing, as a command;
the internal parameter obtained in the parameter adjusting module to that one of the control nodes which corresponds to the internal parameter,wherein the parameter adjusting module further calculates, in every control cycle from a start of driving to an end of driving, the internal parameter using the user parameter and the external parameter as inputs so that each of the plurality of objective functions takes an optimum value.

Abstract
A vehicular control system which includes a user parameter input module, an external parameter input module, a plurality of objective functions, a policy setting module, and a policy node. The user parameter input module Inputs a user parameter. The external parameter input module inputs an external parameter resulting from an outside environment. The objective functions are set for each control characteristic, respectively, so as to calculate an internal parameter of each control target from the user parameter and the external parameter. The policy setting module sets policies indicating a control index of the user for the objective functions respectively. The policy node weights the objective functions on the basis of the policies, adjusts the internal parameter in accordance with the policy so that the internal parameter is optimized among the objective functions, and issues a command to a control node corresponding to the internal parameter.
