PV system is easy to operate and maintain than the other power generating system since it generally contains no moving parts, operates silently and requires very little maintenance. A solar cell generates DC power from sunlight whose power is different at any instance according to condition of irradiation and temperature variables. In order to improve the system utility factor and efficiency of energy conversion, it is desirable to operate the PV system at maximum power point of solar cell under different condition This paper describes the experimental results of the PV system contain solar modules and a DC-DC converter(boost type chopper) using fuzzy controller. The experimental results show that the PV system always operates at maximum power point of solar cells having stabilized output voltage waveform with relatively small ripple component.

In this paper, we are designed a hierachical system controller and builed a robot system for high precision assembly consisting in multi-arms and multi-sensor. For the control of a multi-arms robot system, the robot system are consisted of cell controller, station controller and device. The Operating System of a cell controller is VxWorks for real-time multi-processing. Using by C-language, we are proposed a multi-arms robot control language based a RCCL, and this control language is partially implemented and tested in multi-robot control system.

In this paper, An immunized PID(I-PID) controller based on cell mediated immune response is proposed to improve the control performance of the controller with PID scheme. And it is applied to the vibration of the building structure in the port with active damper systems. The immune system of organism in the real body regulates the antibody and T-cells to protect the attack from the foreign materials which are virus, germ cell, and other antigens. It has similar characteristics that are the adaptation and robustness to overcome disturbances and to control the plant of engineering application. At firstly, we build a model of the T-cell regulated immune response mechanism. We have also designed an I-PID controller focusing on the T-cell regulated immune response of biological immune system. Finally, we show that some computer simulations of the vibraton control for the building structure system with wind force excitation. These results for the proposed method also show that is has performance than other conventional controller design method.

PID controllers, which have been widely used in industry, have a simple structure and robustness to modeling error. But They we difficult to have uniformly good control performance in system parameters variation or different velocity command. In this paper, we propose a nonlinear adaptive PID controller based on a cell-mediated immune response and a gradient descent learning. This algorithm has a simple structure and robustness to system parameters variation. To verify performances of the proposed nonlinear adaptive PID controller, the speed control of nonlinear DC motor is performed. The simulation results show that the proposed control systems are effective in tracking a command velocity under system parameters variation.

Generally, the buck converter controller was designed to control output voltage of the converter. However, design of the controller in photovoltaic power conditioning system is different from general design. the controller in photovoltaic power conditioning system controls input voltage of the converter(output voltage of the solar cell) for MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking). This paper proposes novel buck converter model which can control input voltage of the converter. We integrate this model with a model of solar cell. and linearize at the operating point(MPP). In addition, we determine whether or not suitable for the general linear controller design into small and large signal analysis.

Modern manufacturing systems should cope with the frequent changes in a product model and disturbances in manufacturing process. The control system of such systems must cover a constant adaptation and high flexibility. Holonic Flexible Manufacturing Cell(HFMC) is introduced to handle these issues more successfully. It is based on the concept of autonomous co-operating agent, called 'Holon', which is a building block of a manufacturing system for transforming, transporting, storing and/or validating information and physical objects. In this paper the basic structure of the HFMC is represented by using Unified Modeling Language and Open architecture cell controller is developed for effective integration components of a manufacturing system. Also a new control model, called MuLOM(Multi-Layered Operation Model), is suggested to represent the control behaviour for a holonic flexible manufacturing cell control system.

The demand for automatic manufacturing systems is increasing. One of the crucial obstacles to the Flexible Manufacturing System(FMS) is the lack of excellent strategies for efficient operations. The aim of this research is constructing an automaton scheme in the low level of factories where various machineries are involved. An operating strategy is established for an automation unit named as a cell which resides between the upper level computers and manufacturing shop floor. The cell is defined to fit into the total manufacturing system. The defined cell has more functions than conventional cells. A scheduling scheme is adopted for the shop floor operations. A set of software has been developed and tested through simulations and shop floor experiments.

The problem addressed in this paper is that of the on-line computational burden of time-optimal control laws for quick, strongly nonlinear systems like revolute robots. It will be demonstrated that a large amount of off-line computation can be substituted for most of the on-line burden in cases of time optimization with constrained inputs if differential point-to- point specifications can be relaxed to cell-to-cell transitions. These cells result from a coarse discretization of likely swaths of state space into a set of nonuniform, contiguous volumes of relatively simple shapes. The cell boundaries approximate stream surfaces of the phase fluid and surfaces of equal transit times. Once the cells have been designed, the bang- bang schedules for the inputs are determined for all likely starting cells and terminating cells. The scheduling process is completed by treating all cells into which the trajectories might unex- pectedly stray as additional starting cells. Then an efficient-to-compute control law can be based on the resulting table of optimal strategies.
