1. A computer-implemented method for configuring one or more systems related to the operation of a vehicle, the computer-implemented method comprising:
in response to receiving input data indicative of a user being about to initiate an operation of the vehicle:
determining an identity of the user,
loading first data representative of one or more mapping rules from a first memory device,
selecting and loading second data representative of one or more generic settings from a second memory device, wherein selecting the second data is based on the identity of the user,
transforming, based on the mapping rules, the generic settings into vehicle-specific settings, wherein transforming the generic settings based on the mapping rules comprises translating a value from a generic scale to a vehicle-specific scale by an analytic function or a mapping table, or executing a heuristic algorithm or an artificial neural network, and
configuring, based on the vehicle-specific settings, the one or more systems related to the operation of the vehicle.
