Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle control apparatus in which a function stop caused by an access conflict when a high load is applied can be suppressed. The vehicle control apparatus according to the present invention determines the occurrence tendency of access conflicts by using a function expressed by the number of times of performing exclusive control on a shared storage area and by the number of the resultant access conflicts.

Abstract: This invention detects deviations from design without hindering the real-time nature of interrupt processing, and assists in analyzing the impact of faults caused by unintentional interrupt processing, with the goal of curbing erroneous detection. In order to resolve this problem, this vehicle control device comprises; a deviation determination unit 129 which determines if execution timing of an execution body has deviated from design settings, and transitions to a monitoring state; and a run-time verification unit 130 which verifies the impact of deviation at timing which differs from that of the interrupt processing.

Abstract: Provided is a technology for reducing a time when the information processing device is not controllable by a program update accompanying with a function change. An information processing device includes a storage unit and a processing unit, wherein the storage unit stores a program which contains a function and a jump table which defines calling of the function by the program, and wherein the processing unit determines the function to be called with reference to the jump table when the program is executed and, when the program is updated accompanying with a change of the function, writes a new function which is a function after the change and update the jump table to call the new function.

Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle control device with which, even when an abnormality is detected in a core in a multi-core processor, it is possible to reduce the time needed until the core in which the abnormality is detected restarts and re-executes application software. The present invention is characterized by being provided with: a diagnostic means for carrying out a diagnostic process when starting a processor core, the diagnostic process including hardware diagnosis performed by hardware and software diagnosis performed using software after the hardware diagnosis; and a diagnostic process information change processing means for changing the method for executing the diagnostic process when all of the processor cores are started and when one of the processor cores is restarted.

Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle control device capable of realizing access authority definitions by the number equal to or greater than the number of access control registers provided in a memory protection device. In the vehicle control device according to the present invention, the whole or a part of a storage device that stores the access authority definitions used by the memory protection device to control the access authorities, is allocated fixedly to a memory area in advance and the rest is allocated dynamically.

Abstract: In the present invention, computational efficiency degradation is suppressed when diagnosing a shared storage area in a vehicle control device in which a plurality of computing units are employed. This vehicle control device suppresses computational efficiency degradation by changing an access destination in a storage device while diagnosing a shared storage area that the storage device has.

Abstract: Provided is a vehicle control device capable of reducing a control gap that occurs when a system is restored to a normal state after a malfunction is corrected, thereby achieving smooth driving performance for a user. A vehicle control device according to the present invention has a first travel control mode and a second travel control mode. When in a transitional state from the second travel control mode to the first travel control mode, the vehicle control device calculates and checks a first control parameter used in the first travel control mode, calculates a second control parameter used in the second travel control mode, and uses the second control parameter for traveling control.

The present invention is characterized by being provided with: a diagnostic means for carrying out a diagnostic process when starting a processor core, the diagnostic process including hardware diagnosis performed by hardware and software diagnosis performed using software after the hardware diagnosis; and a diagnostic process information change processing means for changing the method for executing the diagnostic process when all of the processor cores are started and when one of the processor cores is restarted.

Abstract: Provided is a vehicle control apparatus with which it is possible to allocate programs to multiple cores so as to satisfy a deadline even when software programs having two or more control cycles are intermixed. The vehicle control apparatus pertaining to the present invention allocates tasks to processor cores in consideration of the execution order of the tasks, the execution cycles of the tasks, and the cost of communication between the processor cores.

Abstract: A computer system is so configured as to be divided into a control system which should have high reliability and high responsiveness and an information system which does not access the control system. They are connected via a transmission path (transmission path of control system and transmission path of information system). Centralized management of development and maintenance is performed from a software maintenance system. In development and maintenance of software, management according to the feature of each software such as processing contents of each software, demanded reliability, and version up frequency is performed from a maintenance system for exclusive use by using a transmission path of information system. Thereby, development and maintenance having high reliability and expandability is realized.
