This paper describes the results of applying States and Modes Analysis, one of the requirements analysis techniques, to the development requirements of flight control software for Smart UAV. State/mode table enabled us to investigate various operation and design concepts, and as a result essential requirements for flight control software were established without omitting necessary requirements. Through the use of scenario-specific state transition diagrams, dynamic behaviours and control/response interfaces between each state and mode could been clearly identified, which made it possible to establish requirements related to dynamic behaviours of states and modes which are essential to the design of flight control software.

In this paper, we describe about control system for eletro-hydraulic LVAD(Left Ventricular Assist Device) and control algorithm for two operation mode. One is asynchronous operation mode and the other is synchronous operation mode synchronized with natural heart's R pulse. We also present implementation method of software PI algorithm for velocity control of motor used in LVAD system and its response.

The ATO(Automatic Train Operation) System is used for train operation instead of drivers. It is interfaced with TCMS(Train Control and Monitoring System) and ATC/TWC system in the train and wayside facilities. In this paper describes configuration of ATO, specification of ATO hardware, construction of ATO software and the algorithm fur automatic train speed regulation in the carborn ATO system. ATO Application Software is consist of ART, SPR, REG, SRV and PSM tasks. ART task is main control part of the ATO that determine ATO control, ATO mode, state transition. SPR determine speed reference according to train motion status, track data, train data and restricted train speed. REG task regulated train speed form the starting of one station to the precision stop at the other station under the result of ART and SPR tasks. In this paper, a algorithm for the train speed regulation while running is described.

We present a software which we developed for the multi-purpose CCD camera. This software can be used on the all 3 types of CCD - KAF-0401E ($768{\times}512$), KAF-1602E ($1536{\times}1024$), KAF-3200E ($2184{\times}1472$) made in KODAK Co.. For the efficient CCD camera control, the software is operated with two independent processes of the CCD control program and the temperature/shutter operation program. This software is designed to fully automatic operation as well as manually operation under LINUX system, and is controled by LINUX user signal procedure. We plan to use this software for all sky survey system and also night sky monitoring and sky observation. As our results, the read-out time of each CCD are about 15sec, 64sec, 134sec for KAF-0401E, KAF-1602E, KAF-3200E., because these time are limited by the data transmission speed of parallel port. For larger format CCD, the data transmission is required more high speed. we are considering this control software to one using USB port for high speed data transmission.

Supervisory control is an approach based on formal language. it is used to model and control discrete event systems in which each discrete event process is represented as an automation. A supervisor is a generator that switches control patterns in such a way that a given discrete evenet process behaves in obedience to various constraints. A flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) is one of discrete evenet systems. Functions necessary for the operation of an FMC are characterized by operational components and informational compoments. The operational components can be modeled using the finite state machines and the informational components can be modeled using the abstract formalism which describes supporting operations of the cell controller. In this paper, we addressed function required for FMC control specification, software engineering aspects on FMC control based on supervisory control, a concept of event queue for resolving synchronization problem, and complexity reduction. Based on the mathematical model of an FMC. we synthesized the controller by integrating a supervisor for FMC with control specification that specifies event-driven operation of the cell controller. The proposed control scheme is stable mathematically so that the system always behaves on a controlled way even under the existence of uncontrollable events. Furthermore, using an event queue concept, we can solve a synchronization problem caused by the violation of instantaneity assumption of supervisory control theory in real life situation. And also, we can propotype a control software rapidly due to the modularity of the proposed control scheme.

Because the existing control system has been operating for about 20 years, it is necessary to upgrade the system for stable and efficient operation. But, there is a difficulty in maintenance by difference of manufacturer of each main control systems for boiler, turbine and generator. This developed IMCS(Integrated Monitoring and Control System) consists of more than 10,000 inputs and outputs for large scale thermal power plant. This paper consists of the development journey of IMCS MBC(mill and burner control) ; core binary protection & monitoring logic including prevention circuit of boiler explosion & implosion. In this project, the IMCS for boiler, turbine and generator was developed on basis of one communications platform. In this paper, the whole journey of development of IMCS MBC is dealt with designing software and hardware, coding application software, and validating software and hardware.

A full-scope replica type simulator whose MCR(main control room) has the same features and operation functions as MCR of the reference power plant has been developed for a fossil power plant. This simulator was developed with the model of Poryung Fossil Power Plant #3,4 which is the standard model of the Korean fossil power plant. It is the first localized simulator for the supercritical, variable boiler pressure type fossil power plant. The simulator provides various kinds of accidents which are in normal plant operation and thus enables operators to recover or reduce possible damages. To design and develop this kind of simulator, we need to integrate high technologies such as system analysis, plant operation and system integration of mechanics, physics, computer science. CASE(Computer Aided Software Engineering) tools were used to develop the dynamic model. This simulator will greatly contribute to the improvement of the safety and efficiency of the fossil power plant by implementing operator training. In this paper, the outline of software and hardware configuration and characteristics of the simulator are described, and the results of 30%, 50%, 75%, 100% load operation test will be discussed.

PLS(Pohang Light Source) is 2.5 Gev synchrotron radiation source in Pohang, Korea, which is under operation since 1995. The hardware and software of the old BPM(Beam Position Monitor) data acquisition system for the PLS storage ring was completely upgraded to increase its performance and stability. The new BPM data acquisition system is based on VME-based EPICS (Experimental Physics and Instrument Control System) IOC system. We used 16-bit resolution analog-to-digital conversion board to digitize analog BPM signals. We developed a data average software to average raw BPM data using reflective memory board. We also developed device drivers for VME I/O boards used, IOC database for PV's(Process Variables). The new BPM data acquisition system is currently running for routine operation with good performance and stability. In this paper, we present the hardware and software of the new BPM data acquisition system DTL water skid cooling system and Resonant Control Cooling.
