  • Method and apparatus for dynamic distributed services redistribution
    Patent number: 11030827
    Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to detect an application initiation request. The processor is further configured to determine whether current vehicle connectivity availability is sufficient to support remote execution of the application. Also, the processor is configured to launch a local version of the application, responsive to determining that current vehicle connectivity is insufficient to support remote execution. The processor is further configured to request that a remote server launch an instance of the application, once current vehicle connectivity is sufficient to support remote execution.
    Type: Grant

  • Vehicle control storage methods and systems
    Patent number: 10162625
    Abstract: A vehicle can include methods and systems to update controls for a plurality of vehicle systems that operate using updatable controls, wherein each control is mounted in vehicle persistent memory as an image. The controls are stored in non-volatile vehicle memory that has a size less than twice a size of all of the controls loaded thereon. A core system provides access to the control images in the memory.
