Vehicle Control Processor Comparison for Program Evaluation

The patent applies preliminary action by performing calculations with both the old and new control programs simultaneously before actual vehicle deployment. The electronic control device pre-evaluates performance differences by comparing calculation results from both programs, allowing evaluation to be completed before long-distance testing is required, thus reducing time consumption while maintaining evaluation accuracy.

The patent uses copying by creating a duplicate calculation system where the new control program's calculations are copied and compared against the old program's calculations. The electronic control device maintains parallel calculation paths, copying the evaluation process to compare results without requiring physical retesting, thereby reducing time and labor while preserving measurement precision.

The patent applies self-service by enabling the electronic control device to automatically perform evaluation comparisons without human intervention. The device autonomously calculates results using both control programs, compares them, and determines performance differences, eliminating the need for manual testing labor while maintaining high evaluation accuracy through systematic automated comparison.

The patent uses copying to replicate the evaluation process electronically rather than requiring physical replication of testing scenarios by human operators. By copying the calculation logic and comparing results digitally, the system eliminates labor-intensive manual testing while preserving evaluation accuracy through consistent, repeatable computational comparison.
