  • Patent number: 6865459
    Abstract: An electronic system for a vehicle includes first components for carrying out control tasks in response to operating sequences and second components that coordinate a cooperation of the components for carrying out control tasks. The first components carry out the control tasks by using operating functions and basis functions, wherein the system is constructed such that the basis functions are combined in a basis layer, and a system layer is superimposed on the basis functions, which includes at least two of the second components. At least one open interface of the system layer is provided for the operating functions, and the system layer links the basis functions to any and all operating functions, such that the operating functions can be interconnected and/or used in a modular fashion.
