An autopoietic information processing system which is an information processing system for collecting and outputting information includes: a means that inputs first information; a means that collects second information related to the first information; a means that selects third information from the second information; a means that outputs second or third information; a means that collects the second information by setting the third information as new first information; a means that merges the existing second information and new second information at a predetermined rate; a means that selects new third information from the merged second information; and a means that outputs the merged second information or the new third information. The means are recursively operated.

Abstract: In a control device for an internal combustion engine, when a fuel-supply cutoff process ends and fuel injection restarts, an increase ratio based on which a base injection amount is increased is set such that the increase ratio when a duration of the fuel-supply cutoff process is long is higher than the increase ratio when a duration of the fuel-supply cutoff process is short. In addition, the increase ratio is decreased with a lapse of time after fuel injection restarts. Further, a decrease rate that is an amount by which the increase ratio is decreased within a prescribed period of time is set such that the decrease rate in the case where the duration of the fuel-supply cutoff process is long is higher than the decrease rate in the case where the duration of the fuel-supply cutoff process is short.
