The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Definition And History Of The PLC
• A PLC is a user-friendly, microprocessor-
based specialized computer that carries out
control functions of many types and levels of
complexity.
• Its purpose is to monitor crucial process
parameters and adjust process operations
accordingly.
• Used extensively because the PLC
– Is easy to set up and program
– Behaves predictably
– Ruggedized
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-4Electrical & Computer Engineering
Definition And History Of The PLC
• It can be programmed (to a degree),
controlled, and operated by a person
unskilled in operating (programming)
computers.
• Essentially, a PLC's operator draws the lines
and devices of ladder diagrams with a
keyboard/mouse onto a display screen.
• The resulting ladder diagram is converted
into computer machine language and run as
a program.

Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-6Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC basics
• Some PLCs are
– integrated into a single unit (Picocontroller),
– whereas others are modular (PLC5, SLC500)
– The Micrologix product lies somewhere between
the PLC5 and the Picocontroller
• Integrated PLCs are sometimes called
brick PLCs because of their small size
– These PLCs have embedded I/O (i.e. the I/O is a
part of the same unit as the controller itself)
– Modular PLCs have extended I/O
4. 1-4
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-7Electrical & Computer Engineering
Components in a PLC system
• CPU module, containing the processor and
memory
• Input and output modules, to allow the PLC
to read sensors and control actuators
– A wide variety of types are available
• Power supply for the PLC, and often sensors
and low power actuators connected to I/O
modules
• A rack or bus so the PLC can exchange data
with I/O modules

Additional PLC components
• A programming unit is necessary to create,
edit and download a user program to the PLC
• Additional components can include:
– Network interfaces: to allow PLCs to function in
a networked environment
– Communication adapters for remote I/O
devices: so I/O devices do not have to be
physically close to the CPU module
– Operator interface devices: allow monitoring
and/or data entry by operators
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-10Electrical & Computer Engineering
Definition And History Of The PLC
• The PLC takes the place of much of the external
wiring required for control of a process.
– http://www.xl-technology.com/control-upgrades.html
• The PLC will operate any system that has output
devices that go on and off (known as discrete, or
digital, outputs).
• It can also operate any system with variable
(analog) outputs.
• The PLC can be operated on the input side by on-off
devices (discrete, or digital) or by variable (analog)
input devices.
6. 1-6
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-11Electrical & Computer Engineering
Definition And History Of The PLC
• The first PLC systems evolved from
conventional computers in the late 1960s and
early 1970s.
– These first PLCs were installed primarily in
automotive plants.
• Traditionally, the auto plants had to be shut
down for up to a month at model changeover
time.
• The early PLCs were used along with other
new automation techniques to shorten the
changeover time.
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-12Electrical & Computer Engineering
Definition And History Of The PLC
• One of the major time-consuming
changeover procedures had been the wiring
of new or revised relay and control panels.
• The PLC keyboard reprogramming procedure
replaced the rewiring of a panel full of wires,
relays, timers, and other components.
• The new PLCs helped reduce changeover
time to a matter of a few days.

Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-13Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Flexibility
– In the past, each different electronically controlled
production machine required its own controller; 15
machines might require 15 different controllers.
– Now it is possible to use just one model of a PLC
to run any one of the 15 machines.
– Furthermore, you would probably need fewer than
15 controllers, because one PLC can easily run
many machines.
– Each of the 15 machines under PLC control would
have its own distinct program (or a portion of one
running program).
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-14Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Implementing Changes and Correcting
Errors
– With a wired relay-type panel, any program
alterations require time for rewiring of panels and
devices.
– When a PLC program circuit or sequence design
change is made, the PLC program can be changed
from a keyboard sequence in a matter of minutes.
– No rewiring is required for a PLC-controlled
system.
– Also, if a programming error has to be corrected
in a PLC control ladder diagram, a change can be
typed in quickly.
8. 1-8
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-15Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Large Quantities of Contacts
– The PLC has a large number of contacts for each
coil available in its programming.
– Suppose that a panel-wired relay has four
contacts and all are in use when a design change
requiring three more contacts is made.
• Time would have to be taken to procure and install a new
relay or relay contact block.
– Using a PLC, however, only three more contacts
would be typed in.
• Contacts are now a “software” component
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-16Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Lower Cost
– Increased technology makes it possible to
condense more functions into smaller and less
expensive packages.
– Now you can purchase a PLC with numerous
relays, timers, and counters, a sequencer, and
other functions for a few hundred dollars.
• Pilot Running
– A PLC programmed circuit can be evaluated in the
lab. The program can be typed in, tested,
observed, and modified if needed, saving valuable
factory time.
9. 1-9
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-17Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Visual Observation
– A PLC circuit's operation can be seen during
operation directly on a CRT screen.
– The operation or mis-operation of a circuit can be
observed as it happens.
– Logic paths light up on the screen as they are
energized.
– Troubleshooting can be done more quickly during
visual observation.
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-18Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Ladder or Boolean Programming Method
– The PLC programming can be accomplished in the
ladder mode by an engineer, electrician or
possibly a technician. Alternatively, a PLC
programmer who works in digital or Boolean
control systems can also easily perform PLC
programming.
• Reliability and Maintainability
– Solid-state devices are more reliable, in general,
than mechanical systems or relays and timers.
Consequently, the control system maintenance
costs are low and downtime is minimal.
10. 1-10
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-19Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Advantages
• Documentation
– An immediate printout of the true PLC circuit is
available in minutes, if required.
– There is no need to look for the blueprint of the
circuit in remote files.
– The PLC prints out the actual circuit in operation
at a given moment.
– Often, the file prints for relay panels are not
properly kept up to date. A PLC printout is the
circuit at the present time; no wire tracing is
needed for verification.
Dr. D. J. Jackson Lecture 1-20Electrical & Computer Engineering
PLC Disadvantages
• Fixed Program Applications
– Some applications are single-function applications. It does
not pay to use a PLC that includes multiple programming
capabilities if they are not needed.
– Their operational sequence is seldom or never changed, so
the reprogramming available with the PLC would not be
necessary.
• Fail-Safe Operation
– In relay systems, the stop button electrically disconnects the
circuit; if the power fails, the system stops.
– This, of course, can be programmed into the PLC; however,
in some PLC programs, you may have to apply an input
voltage to cause a device to stop. These systems may not be
fail-safe.
