Patent ID: 7529601

Claim:
In a vehicle integrated-control apparatus that controls, in an integrated manner, multiple actuators mounted in a vehicle using multiple control units some of which are manager control units, one control unit among the manager control units comprises: a first coordination portion that coordinates a control target value that is derived based on an instruction from a driver or a first control unit, which is one of the multiple control units other than the manager control units, and that is expressed by a first unit of physical quantity, with an instruction value that is from a second control unit, which is one of the multiple control units other than the manager control units, and that is expressed by the first unit of physical quantity; a conversion portion that converts the control value, which has undergone a coordination process by the first coordination portion and which is expressed by the first unit of physical quantity, into a control target value expressed by a second unit of physical quantity; a second coordination portion that coordinates the control target value, which is derived by the conversion portion and which is expressed by the second unit of physical quantity, with an instruction value that is transmitted from a third control unit, which is one of the multiple control units other than the manager control units, and that is expressed by the second unit of physical quantity; and an output portion that outputs the control target value, which is derived by the second coordination portion, to a fourth control unit, which is one of the multiple control units other than the manager control units and which should achieve the control target value.
