Abstract: A motion manager that is mounted on a vehicle includes a processor and a memory. The processor receives a motion request that corresponds to an application from individual applications. The processor arbitrates the received motion request. The processor generates, based on an arbitration result, an instruction value of an operation request to be output to a brake control unit. The memory stores, in advance, type information of an actuator to be controlled by the brake control unit. The processor generates the instruction value of the operation request using the type information.

Abstract: A control device, system and method that distribute a braking request to at least one of a powertrain and a brake based on a braking request by driver operation and a braking force that is generable by the power train. When the braking request is larger than the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, the device, system and method instruct a controller of the powertrain to generate the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, and to instruct a controller of the brake to generate a braking force corresponding to a difference between the braking request and the braking force that is generable by the powertrain.
