    Abstract: A method, an optimization controller, and combustion engine are disclosed. The method includes determining, by an optimization controller, values of a performance parameter of a target vehicle using characteristics of at least two platoons travelling on a roadway, each of the values corresponding to a platoon of the at least two platoons; selecting, by the optimization controller, one of the at least two platoons based on a comparison of the values of the performance parameter, and coordinating, by the optimization controller, for the target vehicle to join the selected of the at least two platoons.

    Abstract: A system for a vehicle includes a powertrain system including an engine, a transmission, a drive shaft, and a final drive. The system also includes a controller communicably coupled to the powertrain system. The controller is structured to: receive vehicle operation data during operation of a vehicle; receive route data for a route of the vehicle, wherein the route data is received in advance of the vehicle traveling the route; determine a cylinder deactivation event has occurred based on the vehicle operation data; determine an adjustment to a shift schedule for the transmission based on at least one of the cylinder deactivation event and the route data; and provide a command to implement the adjustment with the transmission.

    Abstract: An alternator voltage may be controlled based on a proportional gain scheduling in response to an engine load of an internal combustion engine and/or a state of charge (SOC) deviation for a battery based on a target SOC of the battery and an actual SOC of the battery. The alternator voltage may be a voltage less than a current battery voltage under high engine loads to enable the battery to power an accessory system and the alternator voltage may be a voltage greater than a voltage of the battery under low engine loads or engine loads less than high engine loads to enable the alternator to charge the battery.
