System, method, and apparatus for managing vehicle automation
A system including a vehicle having a network comprising a plurality of end points and a controller, where the controller includes an automation definition circuit, an automation management circuit, and an automation execution circuit. The automation definition circuit is structured to interpret a task description. The automation management circuit is structured to provide a task action plan in response to the task description. The automation execution circuit is structured to provide a task execution command in response to the task action plan, where an end point of the plurality of end points is responsive to the task execution command to implement a task for the vehicle.
1. A system, comprising:
a vehicle having a network comprising a plurality of end points;
a controller, comprising:
an automation definition circuit structured to interpret a task description;
an automation management circuit structured to provide a task action plan in response to the task description; and
an automation execution circuit structured to provide a task execution command in response to the task action plan;
wherein an end point of the plurality of end points is responsive to the task execution command to implement a task for the vehicle.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task comprises monitoring an operating condition of the vehicle.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task comprises selectively activating an actuator.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task comprises monitoring an external operating condition.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task comprises determining whether an event has occurred.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task comprises providing a report in response to at least one of the task execution command or a response from the end point.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task description further includes a task scheduling value, and wherein the automation management circuit is further structured to provide the task action plan in response to the task scheduling value.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task description further includes a task initiation value, and wherein the automation management circuit is further structured to provide the task action plan in response to the task initiation value.
