Abstract: A method for error management in a system having a plurality of components, error conditions of the components being able to be indicated by status values, includes a first status value being determined as a function of an error condition of a first component, and of a second status value being determined as a function of an error condition of a second component and as a function of the first status value.

Abstract: A method and a controller are provided for controlling the execution of a computer program having multitasking capability on a computing element of a controller for controlling and/or regulating a system. The system may take up various possible system states.

Abstract: In a method for determining a target state in a system having multiple components, system states of different priorities being selectable in the system as a function of an availability of the components, the following steps are provided: ascertaining whether a highest-priority system state is selectable; determining the highest-priority system state as the target state if the highest-priority system state is selectable; and ascertaining whether a next-higher-priority system state is selectable if the highest-priority system state is not selectable, and determining the next-higher-priority system state as the target state if said state is selectable.

Abstract: A method and a device are provided for producing an error signal and carrying out measures based thereon in a motor vehicle equipped with a wheel-slip control system and/or a wheel deceleration control system. At least one function variable representing the functionality of the wheel-slip control system and/or wheel-deceleration control system may be monitored for an error and if at least one error is detected, the value of at least one error counter may be incremented. When there is at least one detected error, at least one error signal may be output when the value of at least one error counter exceeds a predeterminable limiting value. For at least one error counter, at least two different, predeterminable limiting values coexist simultaneously, and when each of these is exceeded by the counter reading of the at least one error counter, different error signals may be output.

Abstract: A method and a device for producing an error signal and carrying out measures based thereon in a motor vehicle equipped with a wheel-slip control system and/or a wheel deceleration control system. At least one function variable representing the functionality of the wheel-slip control system and/or wheel-deceleration control system is monitored here for an error and if at least one error is detected, the value of at least one error counter is incremented. Likewise when there is at least one detected error, at least one error signal is output when the value of at least one error counter exceeds a predeterminable limiting value.

Abstract: A method and a controller for controlling the execution of a computer program having multitasking capability on a computing element especially on a microprocessor, of a controller for controlling and/or regulating a system which is able to take on various possible system states. In order to coordinate the execution of computer program in such a way that the input quantities required for the execution of a function of computer program are present with certainty at the beginning of the execution of the function, for each possible transition from one system state into another system state, transition conditions are defined and the execution of computer program is controlled in such a way that the system is only carried over from a first system state into a second system state when all the transition conditions specified for this transition are fulfilled.
