ADVANCED CONTROL FRAMEWORK FOR AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS

Advanced vehicle control systems are disclosed. Within a vehicle system having several subsystem controllers dedicated to separate tasks in the vehicle, the subsystem controllers may use supplied control parameters. In this context, a centralized optimization unit is configured to receive prediction data, determine, within a prediction horizon, a modification to at least one supplied control parameter using the prediction data; and communicate the modification to the at least one supplied control parameter to at least one subsystem control unit.
