1. A vehicle control system of a vehicle, the vehicle having mounted thereon a plurality of electronic control devices to each control an actuator, and a vehicle integrated control device to control the plurality of electronic control devices, wherein
the vehicle integrated control device includes processing circuitry to, during each of a plurality of successive control periods,
calculate a control target value to control the plurality of electronic control devices during the current control period based on a present state of the vehicle, and on a target trajectory generated based on a scheduled travelling route of the vehicle,
estimate a future state of the vehicle in the next control period, and calculate a prediction control value to control the plurality of electronic control devices during the next control period based on the state of the vehicle estimated and the target trajectory; and
acquire the control target value and the prediction control value, generate an operation instruction corresponding to the current control period to be transmitted to each of the plurality of electronic control devices based on the control target value, generate a prediction control instruction corresponding to the next control period to be transmitted to each of the plurality of electronic control devices based on the prediction control value, and generate an instruction signal including the operation instruction corresponding to the current control period and the prediction control instruction corresponding to the next control period, and wherein
each of the plurality of electronic control devices includes processing circuitry to selectively control the actuator during the current control period based on one of: the operation instruction included in the instruction signal generated in the current control period, and the prediction control instruction included in the instruction signal generated in the preceding control period.
