Default Please explain VarioCam Plus

Hello!
I've used the search and haven't found what I was looking for. Can someone explain to me how the variocam plus works?

Does it control the intake side, exhaust side, both sides?
Is it continuously variable or is there a cross over point?
Is it based on RPM, vacuum, or throttle position, some combination of these?

Please try to explain it to me like I'm not a mechanic or engineer.

Thanks!

Oh yea, my car is an '02 C2

Andy,
Check this to see if you have read this Link . Looks pretty intense. I have not waded thru it yet.
