Abstract: A system for controlling vehicle sensors includes one or more processors and a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing a sensor control module including instructions that control processor(s) to, if the vehicle is not moving, and responsive to occurrence of an event, control operation of at least one radar sensor to scan the vehicle occupant compartment at a first scanning rate. Responsive to an occurrence of another event following commencement of scanning at the first scanning rate, the processor(s) control operation of the at least one radar sensor to scan the occupant compartment at a second scanning rate different from the first scanning rate. After passage of a predetermined time period after commencement of scanning at the second scanning rate, it is determined whether a living object resides in the occupant compartment. If no living object resides in the occupant compartment, radar scanning of the occupant compartment is discontinued.

Abstract: A method and system for summarizing object interactions in an object-oriented software program is disclosed. A plurality of tabular inputs containing information about the object interactions in a software system are input into a computer system. The system then determines object information and interaction information from the input information and generates an object summary from the object information and interaction information. The object summary may comprise an object summary matrix indicating instances of interaction between the objects of the software program and a plurality of message summaries that indicate messages sent from and sent to a particular object of the software program.
