  • Publication number: 20250135833
    Abstract: A vehicle system for an electrified vehicle that implements a race preparation mode for preparing the electrified vehicle for a race event is provided. The vehicle system includes a motor, a battery system, an instrument panel cluster and a controller. The controller initiates the race preparation mode based on user selection of the race preparation mode. The controller determines whether a drag race mode is selected and determines whether a measured temperature of the battery system is below a warm temperature threshold. The temperature of the battery system is elevated based on the measured temperature being below the warm temperature threshold. The controller determines whether a track mode is selected and determines whether a measured temperature of the battery system is above a cold temperature threshold. The temperature of the battery system is reduced based on the measured temperature being above the cold temperature threshold.

  • Publication number: 20250138999
    Abstract: A computer system manages the allocation of memory to an application program using a dependency tree. The dependency tree informs a memory manager of data inputs, data outputs, and intermediate values associated with execution of the application program. The memory manager allocates a single heap structure within a physical memory. Data associated with each node of the dependency tree is allocated to the heap structure so that data input values are allocated in a contiguous block, and intermediate values are allocated separately. In various examples, as execution of the application program proceeds, the separation of intermediate values from non-intermediate values within the heap reduces memory fragmentation providing improved performance of the computer system as a whole.
