1. A method for improving integrity in data representing a plurality of condition states of a variable, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining which condition states are operationally incompatible with one another using one or more processors; and
generating an array of transformed integer values using the one or more processors by changing initial integer values of each of the condition states to transformed integer values for the condition states, such that the transformed integer values for the condition states comprise a separate transformed integer value for each condition state, such that the transformed integer value for each condition state in binary form is at least two bit errors removed from any transformed integer value for an identified incompatible condition state in binary form.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is provided for improving integrity in data representing a plurality of condition states of a variable, including the steps of determining which condition states are operationally incompatible with one another, and generating an array of transformed integer values including a separate integer value for each condition state. The transformed integer value for each condition state in binary form is at least two bit errors removed from any transformed integer value for an identified incompatible condition state in binary form.

11. A method for improving integrity in data representing a plurality of condition states of a plurality of variables, the variables including at least a vehicle power mode variable (with condition states including at least power off, run, accessory, and crank), an engine run status variable (with condition states including at least not running, running and idling, and running and not idling), and a transmission gear status variable (with condition states including at least reverse and any gear except reverse), and wherein the method comprises the steps of:
-
receiving initial values representing a plurality of condition states for a variable representing a vehicle operational parameter; and generating an array of transformed integer values using a processor by changing the initial values of each of the condition states to transformed integer values for the condition states, such that the transformed integer values for the condition states comprise a separate transformed integer value for each condition state, such that; the transformed integer values are different for each condition state of the variable; and the transformed integer value for each condition state in binary form is at least two bit errors removed from the transformed integer values for each of the other condition states in binary form. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. An apparatus for improving integrity in data representing a plurality of condition states of a variable, the apparatus comprising:
-
means for receiving one or more initial values representing the condition states of the variable; means for determining which condition states are operationally incompatible with one another; and means for generating an array of transformed integer values by changing the initial values, such that the transformed integer values comprise a separate integer value for each condition state, such that the transformed integer value for each condition state in binary form is at least two bit errors removed from any transformed integer value for an identified incompatible condition state in binary form. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
