Abstract: A method for processing data with parameters of a vehicle, power train or power train component of different origin comprises reading out of the data and the carrying out a statistical analysis for determining the minimum and maximum axis values of the data associated with the same parameters. Subsequently, the data is converted and compressed into a common format, and the data associated with the same parameters is provided with common axes and the same number of sampling points, wherein the start and end figures of the axes results from the minimum and maximum axis figures. The data processed in this way may then be subjected to further processing.

Abstract: A torque management system and method is described by which the torque provided by an engine can be controlled based on a mass of the vehicle and, if available, instantaneous and/or predictive slope information. Also, in some modes of operation, torque can be controlled based on speed limit information for upcoming road segments to be traveled by a vehicle. In addition to controlling the maximum allowable torque, optionally the minimum allowable torque can also be controlled to prevent inadvertent decelerations of the vehicle. A driver/operator can optionally override the torque control and the history of override requests can optionally be used to adjust overrides of the system. A plurality of torque control approach sub-methods can be made available with the appropriate sub-mode being selected depending, for example, upon the extent of the available information.

Abstract translation: 描述了一种扭矩管理系统和方法，通过该扭矩管理系统和方法可以基于车辆的质量以及可用的瞬时和/或预测斜率信息来控制由发动机提供的扭矩。 此外，在一些操作模式中，可以基于车辆行驶的即将到来的路段的速度限制信息来控制扭矩。 除了控制最大允许转矩之外，还可以控制最小允许扭矩以防止车辆的无意的减速。 驱动程序/操作员可以选择覆盖转矩控制，并且覆盖请求的历史可以可选地用于调整系统的覆盖。 可以根据例如可用信息的程度，选择适当的子模式来选择多个转矩控制方法子方法。

Abstract: A vehicle having and engine and traction battery and a method of operating an engine are disclosed. A controller operates the engine according to quantized engine power levels. The quantization level depends upon a total power demand. For low values of total power demand, the selected quantization level may be at least equal to the total power demand. For high values of total power demand, the selected quantization level may be less than or equal to the total power demand. In between low and high values, the selected quantization level may be the quantization level nearest the total power demand. The traction battery may receive or provide power depending on the selected quantization level.

Abstract: An automatic shut-off of the engine of a motor vehicle is only activated if the motor vehicle has been moved according to a specific criterion after the last starting procedure of the engine. The undesired shut-off of an engine can thus be prevented in some situations, such as e.g. when a garage is being opened or when ice is being scraped off the windows of a motor vehicle.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to limiting the use of an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle by particular occupants based on permission data. More specifically, permission data may include destinations, routes, and/or other information that is predefined or set by a third party. The vehicle may then access the permission data in order to transport the particular occupant to the predefined destination, for example, without deviation from the predefined route. The vehicle may drop the particular occupant off at the destination and may wait until the passenger is ready to move to another predefined destination. The permission data may be used to limit the ability of the particular occupant to change the route of the vehicle completely or by some maximum deviation value. For example, the vehicle may be able to deviate from the route up to a particular distance from or along the route.
