The Technical Committee “Automotive Control” has activities that cover all aspects of control functions in all types of vehicles. The activities have elements of modeling, supervision, control, and diagnosis of all types of automotive systems. The system areas are related to all types of dynamic systems that can be studied within and around vehicle. One system area is general vehicle motion where we study vehicle dynamic systems, considering vehicle motion planning and manoeuvres, including safety aspects, intelligent driver aids, and autonomous vehicles. Another dynamic system area is the propulsion of vehicles where control aspects for propulsion and powertrains, covering all types for example conventional-, electric-, fuel-cell-, hybrid- and alternative drive-vehicles. Are also included are the vehicle aspects: integrated traffic management, general automobile/road-environment strategies, distributed discrete-event systems, automotive sensors, in-vehicle communication networks, man-machine interfaces, and information displays/systems.
