Method for operating a control unit

Abstract

A method for operating a computing arrangement. The computing arrangement includes: a plurality of single-chip systems, wherein the single-chip systems are configured to obtain the same sensor data, and at least one degradation mechanism configured to perform functions of a failed single-chip system on another single-chip system. In the method, when a failure of at least one of the single-chip systems is sensed, a switch takes place to another single-chip system o perform a function assigned to the failed single-chip system. A degradation mechanism is additionally performed.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
