Embodiments for operating an engine in a partial deactivation mode are provided. In one example, a method for an engine having a first cylinder group and a second cylinder group includes responsive to engine operation in a first engine speed-load region, deactivating one or more cylinders of the second cylinder group, and responsive to the deactivating, adjusting exhaust valve timing of one or more cylinders of the first cylinder group. The method further includes responsive to engine operation a second engine speed-load region, adjusting exhaust valve timing of the one or more cylinders of the first cylinder group, and responsive to the adjusting, deactivating the one or more cylinders of the second cylinder group. 1. A supercharged internal combustion engine , comprising:{'sub': 1,ex', '1,ex, 'at least three cylinders, each cylinder having at least one outlet opening which is adjoined by an exhaust line for discharging exhaust gases via an exhaust-gas discharge system, each cylinder further having at least one inlet opening which is adjoined by an intake line for supply of charge air via an intake system, the at least three cylinders arranged into at least two groups with in each case at least one cylinder, each cylinder of a first group of the at least two groups being a cylinder which is in operation even in the event of partial deactivation of the internal combustion engine, and each cylinder of a second group of the at least two groups being formed as a load-dependently switchable cylinder, at least one outlet opening of at least one cylinder of the first group equipped with an at least partially variable valve drive, with an oscillating outlet valve which opens up or shuts off an associated outlet opening and which is adjustable at least with regard to a control time for opening, the oscillating outlet valve realizing a valve lift Δhbetween an open position and a closed position and opening up the associated outlet opening during an opening duration Δt;'}an ...
