Relative System Response Elevator Call Assignments Abstract An elevator control system employs a micro- processor-based group controller which communicates with the cars of the elevator system to determine conditions of the cars and responds to hall calls registered at a plurality of landings in the building serviced by the cars under control of the group con- troller, to provide assignments of calls to cars based on the summation for each car, with respect to each call, a weighted summation of a plurality of system response factors indicative of conditions of the car irrespective of the call to be assigned, and indicative of conditions of the car relative to the call to be assigned, including factors relating to preferring cars which are running, which require motion to provide service already assigned to the car, which do not have lobby calls, which are not positioned at the lobby, which are not full, even though the car may have a car call at the floor of the hall call under consideration, which do not have excessive car calls in them, and so forth. Exemplary apparatus and logic flow diagrams are disclosed to illustrate the specific manner of assigning calls to cars in accordance with the in- vention, and to illustrate the environment in which the invention may be practiced.
