Abstract

Vehicle state information is input, and a control amount, which is control state information, is calculated from the vehicle state information to control a controlled device. A control state is monitored by a monitor unit, and an abnormality is detected based on a state where the vehicle state information or the control state information exists in an abnormality region in which the vehicle state information or the control state information has not reached a failure region corresponding to a failure. The vehicle state information, the control state information, and monitor information are stored in a buffer for a period set in advance while always updating the latest vehicle state information, control state information, and monitor information. When the abnormality is detected, the above respective information before and after the abnormality detection including the information stored in the buffer are stored in a nonvolatile storage unit.
