Abstract: A vehicle control device and a method thereof are provided. A master processor and a slave processor simultaneously receive, monitor or process signals of a vehicle, a power management module monitors the master processor via a first watchdog signal, and the master processor monitors the slave processor via a second watchdog signal. When the power management module sends the first watchdog signal to the master processor and no response message is received, the power management module sends a first reset signal to reset the master processor, and when the master processor sends the second watchdog signal to the slave processor and no response message is received, the master processor sends a second reset signal to reset the slave processor. When the master processor and the slave processor are abnormal, a forced wake-up module outputs a high level signal to forcibly wake up the master processor and the slave processor.

Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of biology, and in particular relates to an attenuated strain of African swine fever virus (ASFV) with IPTG-induced deletion of a D1133L gene and use thereof. In the present disclosure, it is firstly found that the D1133L protein of ASFV can inhibit production of IFN-? and downstream cytokines ISG-15 and ISG-56, and can be used as an immunosuppressant with a relatively strong immunosuppressive effect. In addition, the attenuated strain of ASFV with IPTG-induced deletion of the D1133L gene is constructed. Specifically, a screening expression cassette is inserted into a position before the non-structural protein gene D1133L of the ASFV using an Escherichia coli lac operator-repressor system, to obtain a recombinant virus. In the presence of the IPTG, the recombinant virus has similar characteristics to a wild-type virus; and in the absence of the IPTG, the expression of the D1133L protein is inhibited.
