Vehicle deactivation control

A computer-implemented method for controlling heavy-duty vehicle deactivation, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a processor device of a computer system, a deactivation request to deactivate a heavy-duty vehicle;
• in response to said receiving, determining, by the processor device, a controlled partial deactivation instruction of at least one subsystem of the heavy-duty vehicle, wherein the controlled partial deactivation instruction is determined by an autonomous model;
• and
• controlling, by the processor device, the heavy-duty vehicle to execute the controlled partial deactivation instruction such that the heavy-duty vehicle is at least partially deactivated either immediately, or after a delay, as determined by the controlled partial deactivation instruction, wherein the autonomous model is configured to:
• receive input data, said input data comprising:
• historical usage pattern of the heavy-duty vehicle, the historical usage pattern comprising information of deactivation events and activation events of the heavy-duty vehicle having historically occurred at reference locations;
• usage data of the heavy-duty vehicle with reference to said reference locations, and
• the deactivation request,
• process the input data, wherein the process includes calculating a cost function, wherein said deactivation and activation events are associated with positive costs, wherein time periods between a deactivation event and a subsequent activation event among said deactivation events and activation events having historically occurred are associated with negative costs, and
• output the controlled partial deactivation instruction as a result of said processing of the input data.
