Abstract

A method for controlling and/or regulating the operation of an internal combustion engine, wherein the relevant specific relative locations of the intake camshaft with respect to the crankshaft are defined and/or controlled with the aid of regulating control values of the engine control unit, in particular for controlling the intake valves between the control value 1 for late and the control value 0 for early, and wherein a specific regulating control value curve and/or specific regulating control values for controlling the relative position of the intake camshaft is or are stored, at least for a specific control period for implementing the load jump, namely at least between the time of the start of the target load jump to the time of the end of the actual load jump corresponding to the target load jump.
