A change controller application, process and system tracks modification to a configuration of a computerized device by receiving a change request indicating a requested change to an existing configuration of the computerized device and preparing a change notification message identifying the requested change to the existing configuration of the computerized device. The change controller transmits the change notification message to at least one change notification recipient and determines if a change acknowledgement is provided in response. If a change acknowledgement is provided from a change notification recipient that indicates confirmation of receipt of the change notification message, the system allows the requested change to the configuration of the computerized device to take place. If the change acknowledgement is not provided from a change notification recipient, the system conditionally operates the computerized device so that a monitoring device networked to the computerized device perceives that a configuration change to the computerized device may have taken place.

A system and method for providing steering control for lane changing and lane centering purposes in an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle system. A vehicle vision system calculates roadway lane marking information, such as lateral offset, yaw angle and roadway curvature with respect to the vehicle's centered coordinate system. The roadway is then modeled as a second order polynomial equation. The method then predicts roadway lateral position and yaw angle over a pre-defined lane change completion time using a vehicle dynamic model. The method then compares a predicted vehicle path with a desired vehicle path to generate an error value, and calculates a steering angle command to minimize the error value, where the steering angle command is calculated as a function of vehicle lateral position, vehicle lateral speed, vehicle yaw rate and vehicle yaw angle. The steering angle command is then sent to the vehicle steering system.
