A method to determine a preferred operating point for an internal combustion engine includes determining a current set of candidate operating points for a current search iteration. The method further includes iteratively determining an operating cost for operating the internal combustion engine at each candidate operating point of the current search iteration, and determining the preferred operating point for operating the internal combustion engine after a predetermined number of search iterations.

An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) assembly (23) for an internal combustion engine, including an EGR valve (54) having a valve stem (55) reciprocating within a housing (61), between open (FIG. 3) and closed positions. Preferably, the EGR assembly is mounted on the exhaust manifold (15), and the EGR valve can communicate exhaust gas back to the intake manifold (13) in a known manner. The EGR assembly includes an electric motor (41), and a gear train (65) to move the EGR valve (54) in response to changes in an electrical input signal. A plurality of power electronic components (97) are disposed within a controls housing (91), which defines a slot (99) in face-to-face relation to a cooling chamber (81) defined by the housing (61) surrounding the valve stem (55). The cooling chamber (81) and the slot (99) cooperate to define a coolant passage, and the valve stem (55) and the power components (97) are in close proximity to the coolant passage, thus permitting the use of less expensive electrical components, rated for relatively lower temperatures.

A valve control system for an internal combustion engine including a poppet valve (21) and high lift (15) and low lilt (31) cam lobes. A latchable rocker arm includes an outer rocker arm (33) and an inner rocker arm (35), and a slider mechanism (37) which is biased by a spring (67) to the high lilt mode (FIG. 1). An actuator assembly (27) includes and arm (103) biased by a spring (101) into engagement with the slider (37), biasing the slider toward the unlatched (low lift) mode (FIG. 2 ). The actuator (27) includes an electromagnetic coil (83) which moves an armature (87) into engagement with the arm (103), biasing the arm in opposition to the force of the actuator spring (101), but aided initially by the force of the slider spring (67).
