EHR ATTRIBUTE-BASED ACCESS CONTROL (ABAC) FOR FOG COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTcsandit
Liquid level tanks are employed in many industrial and chemical areas. Their level must be keep
a defined point or between maximum-minimum points depending on changing of inlet and outlet
liquid quantities. In order to overcome the problem, many level control methods have been
developed. In the paper, it was aimed that obtain a mathematical model of an installed liquid
level tank system. Then, the mathematical model was derived from the installed system
depending on the sizes of the liquid level tank. According to some proportional-integralderivative
(PID) parameters, the model was simulated by using MATLAB/Simulink program.
After that, data of the liquid level tank were taken into a computer by employing data
acquisition cards (DAQs). Lastly, the computer-controlled liquid level control was successfully
practiced through a written computer program embedded into a PID algorithm used the PID
parameters obtained from the simulations into Advantech VisiDAQ software
INVESTIGATING HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACES’ EFFICIENCY IN INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY AN...IJITCA Journal
The twenty-first century has seen a vast technological revolution characterized by the development of
cyber-physical systems, integration of things, and new and computationally improved machines and
systems. However, there have been seemingly little strides in the development of user interfaces,
specifically for industrial machines and equipment. The aim of this study was to assess the efficiency of the
human-machine interfaces in the Kenyan context in providing a consistent and reliable working
environment for industrial machine operators. The researcher employed a convenient purposive sampling
to select 15 participants who had at least two years of hands-on experience in machines operation, control,
or instrumentation. The results of the study are herein presented, including the recommendations to
enhance workforce productivity and efficiency.
The objective of the paper is to investigate the possibility of using a 2DOF controller in disturbance rejection associated with delayed double integrating processes. The effect of time delay of the process in a range between 0.1 and 0.9 seconds is considered. The controller is tuned using MATLAB optimization toolbox with three forms of the objective function in terms of the error between the step time response of the closed-loop control system and the desired zero value. Using the proposed controller with the fractional delayed double integrating process indicates the robustness of the controller in the time delay range used. The 2DOF controller is able to complete with the PID plus first-order lag controller , but it can not compete with other types of controllers such as the I-PD and PD-PI controllers..
Keywords — Delayed double integrating process, 2DOF controller, controller tuning, MATLAB optimization toolbox, Control system performance.

Integrating fault tolerant scheme with feedback control scheduling algorithm ...ijics
In order to provide Quality of Service (QoS) in open and unpredictable environment, Feedback based
Control Scheduling Algorithm (FCSA) is designed to keep the processor utilization at the scheduling
utilization bound. FCSA controls CPU utilization by assigning task periods that optimize overall control
performance, meeting deadlines even if the task execution time is unpredictable and through performance
control feedback loop. Current FCSA doesn’t ensure Fault Tolerance (FT) while providing QoS in terms of
CPU utilization and resource management. In order to assure that tasks should meet their deadlines even
in the presence of faults, a FT scheme has to be integrated at control scheduling co-design level. This paper
presents a novel approach on integrating FT scheme with FCSA for real time embedded systems. This
procedure is especially important for control scheduling co-design of embedded systems.
The problem of controlling an unstable delayed double integrating process with fractional delay using a
feed forward first-order lag-lead compensator is studied. The effect of time delay of the process in a range between
0.1 and 0.9 seconds is considered. The compensator is tuned using MATLAB optimization toolbox with five forms
of the objective function in terms of the error between the step time response of the closed-loop control system and
the response steady-state value. Using the proposed compensator with the fractional delayed double integrating
process indicates the robustness of the compensator in the time delay range used with superior time-based
specifications compared with other technique based on PID controller.
Keywords — Delayed double integrating process with fractional delay, Feed forward lag-lead first-order
compensator, compensator tuning, MATLAB optimization toolbox, Control system performance.

On an LAS-integrated soft PLC system based on WorldFIP fieldbusISA Interchange
Communication efficiency is lowered and real-time performance is not good enough in discrete control based on traditional WorldFIP field intelligent nodes in case that the scale of control in field is large. A soft PLC system based on WorldFIP fieldbus was designed and implemented. Link Activity Scheduler (LAS) was integrated into the system and field intelligent I/O modules acted as networked basic nodes. Discrete control logic was implemented with the LAS-integrated soft PLC system. The proposed system was composed of configuration and supervisory sub-systems and running sub-systems. The configuration and supervisory sub-system was implemented with a personal computer or an industrial personal computer; running subsystems were designed and implemented based on embedded hardware and software systems. Communication and schedule in the running subsystem was implemented with an embedded sub-module; discrete control and system self-diagnosis were implemented with another embedded sub-module. Structure of the proposed system was presented. Methodology for the design of the sub-systems was expounded. Experiments were carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed system both in discrete and process control by investigating the effect of network data transmission delay induced by the soft PLC in WorldFIP network and CPU workload on resulting control performances. The experimental observations indicated that the proposed system is practically applicable.
This presentation provides an overview of the book Control Loop Foundation. The book authors gave this presentation as a short course at Emerson Exchange 2010.

Implementation of T-Junction Traffic Light Control System Using Simatic S7-20...IJERA Editor
A conventional traffic light control system is designed by using devices such as timers, relays and
contactors etc. The critical timing operation is required to be carried out under the existence of heavy
traffic situations. This conventional practice leads to many problems that need additional maintenance
cost and subsequent delay for a long time. With the help of a PLC, the requirement of fast automation
and effective optimization of traffic light control system can be achieved. Use of PLC helps us to
develop this process not only for traffic signal on the roads, but also on the movement of trains and
the transfer of containers in ports in maritime works. In order to provide a solution to the above
problem, this paper introduces an execution and implementation of T-junction traffic control system
using SEIMENS S7-200 PLC. Programming in PLC is written in ladder logic with the help of STEP7

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
