In this paper, we propose a new technique for implementing optimum controller for a conical tank. The objective of the controller is to maintain the level inside the process tank in a desired value. Hence an attempt is made in this paper as Internal Model Based PID controller design for conical tank level control. For each stable operating point, a first order process model was identified using process reaction curve method. The real time implementation is done in Simulink using MATLAB. The experimental results shows that proposed control scheme have good set point tracking and disturbance rejection capability.

Abstract
In mass production systems, line balancing plays a great role, but this is not easy even if it is a simple straight line. So, in order to
solve these problems Heuristic methods are very much desirable. It is also found that Heuristic methods play a great role in the
formation of metaheuristic methods.Therefore it is very much important to use more efficient heuristic methods. In this research
paper we presents a heuristic method that is based on critical path method for simple assembly line balancing. This research is
mainly concerned with objectives of minimizing the number of workstations, improvement of smoothness index, mean absolute
deviation (MAD) and increasing line efficiency.
Keywords-Heuristic methods,Assembly line balancing problem, Critical path method, Simple assembly line balancing.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Dear Students
There are many open-source simulation software’s available to execute PLC program Ladder Diagram
mode. Among these software LogixPro is one of the best platforms to learn the PLC Logic along with built
in simulations.
LogixPro is the ideal tool for learning the fundamentals of ladder logic programming. The look, feel and
operation of LogixPro's ladder rung editor so closely mimics Rockwell's world renown PLC editing
software, that many need a second look to be sure whose editor they're using. Of course, the give-away is the
window containing one of our ProSim-II Simulations. This is where LogixPro really out-shines typical PLC
training setups employing a PLC connected to a handful of switches and lights. By graphically simulating
process equipment such as conveyors, bottling plants, etc. in software, the synchronous and interactive
nature of real industrial processes, presents the student with a far more realistic and challenging
programming experience.

2. Introduction to Timer functions. Applications of timing functions in process control -- On Delay
Timer Function, Off-delay Timer Function
PLC timers are instructions that provide the same functions as on-delay and off-delay mechanical and
electronic timing relays. A PLC timer provides a pre-set delay to the control actions.
In general, there are three types of PLC timer delays, ON-delay timer, OFF-delay timer and retentive timer
on. The terms represented in the timer block in the PLC are a Pre-set value which means the delay period of
the timer, an Accumulated value which is the current delay of the timer.
A timer begins the counting on time-based intervals and continues until the accumulated value equals the
pre-set value. When the accumulated value equals the pre-set time, the output will be energized. Then the
timer sets the output.
a) TON timer or ON delay timer
An ON-delay timer is used where we need a time delay before the time delay before an instruction becomes
true. Timer number: The timer file name Time base: which is
shown in seconds, preset value: Numeric valve set as the delay
required to the timer. Accumulated value: The values are
counting is displayed from zero. Value becomes zero whenever
the timer is reset
• The timer starts operating when the rung condition becomes true. The timer delay starts counting when
the rung condition starts to accumulate.
• When the Pre-set value becomes equal to the accumulated value, the output is made true.
• The timed output becomes true sometime after the timer rung becomes true; hence, the timer is said to
have an on-delay.
• The length of the delay can be adjusted by setting the pre-set value.
b) TOFF timer or OFF delay timer:
A TOFF timer will keep the output energized for a pre-set time after the rung signal has gone false.
The TOFF timer will have all the contents as in the TON timer, with the
similar function.
• When the rung timer is true, the output will be true without any
delay. When the rung signal becomes false the timer starts
operating.
• The timer starts accumulating times when the rung condition becomes true, until the accumulated
value becomes equal to the Pre-set value.
• The output turns off when the output will turn false when the accumulated value equals the pre-
set value.

c) Retentive timer:
A retentive timer is used when you want to retain accumulated time value through the power loss or the
change in the rung state.
A retentive timer accumulates time whenever the
device receives power, and it maintains the current
time should power be removed from the device
Loss of power to the timer after reaching its preset
value does not affect the state of the contacts. The
retentive timer must be intentionally reset with a
separate signal for the accumulated time to be reset
An example logic is shown above.
• When the push bottom PB1 is pressed, the timer starts working and the reading starts
accumulating.
• When we push the PB1 button then rung become false and the timer stops working. Consider we
are switching ON the push after a time, the timer starts counting from the previous value before
the timer is stopped.
• We have to add another switch PB2 to reset the values in the timer
3. PLC counter functions, Applications of PLC counter function in process control
PLC counters are internal PLC instructions that can be used to count input or output signals in the PLC
program. These counters operate like relay counters but you cannot hold a PLC counter in your hand and
they do not need to be connected to wires to operate.
There are two main types of PLC counters, the count-up counter, and the count-down counter. For the
counter-up counters, we have a counter file name, a counter preset value, a counter accumulated value, a
counter count-up bit, and a counter done bit. For the counter-down counters, we have the same bits and
values. The only thing that is different is the counter-down bit on the output. As you can see below, we have
this as counter-up bit for the counter-up counter. three types of counter functions,
The inputs and outputs of these counter blocks have some inputs and outputs.
Inputs,

a) Count Up [CTU]
This instruction is used to count up the value. Whenever
there is a pulse at the input of the CTU block, it will
increase the accumulator value by 1.
When the accumulator value is equal to or greater than
the pre-set value, the DN bit is set. The DN bit is true
until the accumulator value goes below the preset value or CTU is reset using RES instruction.
b) Count Down [CTD]
This instruction is used to count down the value.
Whenever there is a pulse at the input of the CTD block,
it will decrease the accumulator value by 1.
When the accumulator value is equal to or greater than
the pre-set value, the DN bit is set. The DN bit is true
until the accumulator value goes below the preset value.
