  • Publication number: 20240134709
    Abstract: A method for operating a computing unit including at least one processor core. The method includes: assigning one or multiple application programs executable by the computing unit to one of at least two zones, the zones characterizing resources of the computing unit, which are usable for an execution of a relevant application program, executing at least one of the application programs as a function of the zone to which it is assigned.

  • Publication number: 20230073830
    Abstract: A method for handling an anomaly of data, in particular in a motor vehicle. At least one sensor obtains data for the anomaly detection. The sensor examines the obtained data for anomalies, and generates an event as a function of the associated data when an anomaly is detected. It is decided whether the event is further processed, in particular stored and/or further communicated, at least in part.

  • Publication number: 20230073058
    Abstract: A method for handling an anomaly of data, in particular in a motor vehicle, is provided. At least one sensor obtains data for the anomaly detection. The sensor examines the obtained data for anomalies, and generates an event as a function of the associated data when an anomaly is detected. An event report is generated as a function of the event. The event report includes at least one variable that changes for each event report and/or is cyclically sent.

  • Publication number: 20230021594
    Abstract: A method for operating a computing device for a control unit of a motor vehicle. The computing device including a processor core, and is configured to control an exchange of data between a connectivity zone and a security zone. The security zone includes at least one component which is necessary to drive the vehicle and has an elevated relevance with regard to safety. The connectivity zone including at least one component whose operation requires communication outside of the vehicle but is not required to drive the vehicle and does not have an elevated relevance with regard to safety. At least one first program executable by the computing device is assigned to a non-trustworthy zone, and at least one further program is assigned to a trustworthy zone. The component of the connectivity zone is assigned to the non-trustworthy zone, and the component of the security zone being assigned to the trustworthy zone.

  • Patent number: 11204381
    Abstract: A device and a method for detecting a missing electrical connection of an energy store to an energy-supply system, particularly an electrical system of a motor vehicle, in which at least one current-sensing device senses at least one current flowing in the energy-supply system or energy store, at least one dispersion of the current being determined and compared to at least one threshold value in order to detect a missing electrical connection of the energy store to the energy-supply system.
