Abstract
Hybrid vehicles and other vehicles with one or more torque producing devices operate more effectively with proper resolution of torque requests. In one aspect of the present invention, a plurality of vehicle force and torque requests are resolved at different levels depending on the vehicle architecture. In another aspect of the present invention, torque requests are resolved into base requests and fast requests depending upon response times of torque devices satisfying these requests.
