Abstract: A method for predicting a topography information item for a vehicle includes assigning at least one respective topography information item to each of the different travel positions of the vehicle, determining a future travel position, and querying at least one topography information item assigned to the determined future travel position.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to apparatuses, methods and computer programs for controlling a machine. The apparatus is suitable for a mobile communication device for providing a sensor input signal to a machine control entity to control a machine. The apparatus comprises one or more sensor modules for providing first user input sensor data and second user input sensor data. The apparatus further comprises a control module configured to determine the sensor input signal based on the first user input sensor data and the second user input sensor data. The control module is further configured to provide the sensor input signal for sensor data processing to the machine control entity to control the machine via an interface.

Abstract: A method for determining a control parameter of a power or torque distribution regulator for a hybrid drive of a work machine having the steps of automatically determining a work cycle that has just been performed by the work machine, and selecting of the control parameter as a function of the work cycle determined in the previous step.

Abstract: A data communication interface for an agricultural utility vehicle, particularly an agricultural tractor, having an interface connector that can be connected either to a first data communication network or to a second data communication network by means of an electrically operatable changeover device, wherein the first data communication network is terminated at a line end associated with the interface connector by means of a disconnectable terminating resistor, and having a control unit that connects the interface connector to the first data communication network by means of appropriate operating of the changeover device exclusively when it infers the presence of a control signal that is provided for disconnecting the terminating resistor.
