| 1. Article of manufacture, comprising a storage medium having a computer program encoded therein for effecting a method to
control torque output from a transmission device during a gear-to-gear shifting event when an off-going torque-transfer device
is disengaged, the program comprising:
code comprising a predetermined preferred torque output from the transmission device;
code to control torque output from each of a plurality of torque-generative devices operative to transmit motive torque to
the transmission device; and,
code to control torque transmitted across a selectively actuated torque transfer device.
