A distributed real-time system that is being used now is usually divided into three level : higher level, middle level, and lower level. The higher level network is usually called an information network, the middle level is called a control network, and the lower level is called a field network or a divice network. This dissertation suggests and implements a middle level network which is called PICNET-NP (Plant Implementation and Control Network for Nuclear Power Plant). PICNET-NP is based partly on IEEE 802.4 token-passing bus access methed and partly on IEEE 802.3 physical layer. For this purpose a new interface, a physical layer service translater, is introduced. A control network using this method is implemented and applied to a distributed real-time system.

An implementation scheme and some improvements are proposed to adopt public-licensed operating system, Linux and de-facto world-wide network standard, TCP/IP into the field of behavior-based autonomous mobile robots. To demonstrate the needs of scheme and the improvement, an analysis is performed on a server/client communication problem with real time Linux previously proposed, and another analysis is also performed on interactions among TCP/IP communications and the performance of Linux system using them. Implementation of behavior-based control architecture on real time Linux is proposed firstly. Revised task-scheduling schemes are proposed that can enhance the performance of server/client communication among local tasks on a Linux platform. A new method of TCP/IP packet flow handling is proposed that prioritizes TCP/IP software interrupts with aperiodic server mechanism as well. To evaluate the implementation scheme and the proposed improvements, performance enhancements are shown through some simulations.

Researches about scheduling of the distributed real-time systems have been proposed. However, they have some weak points, not scheduling both sporadic and periodic tasks and messages or being unable to guaranteeing the end-to-end constraints due to omitting precedence relations between sporadic tasks. So this paper proposes a new scheduling method for distributed real-time systems consisting of sporadic and periodic tasks with precedence relations and sporadic and periodic messages, guaranteeing end-to-end constraints. The proposed method is based on a binary search-based period assignment algorithm, an end-to-end laxity-based priority assignment algorithm, and three kinds of schedulability analysis, node, network, and end-to-end schedulability analysis. In addition, this paper describes the application model of sporadic tasks with precedence constraints in a distributed real-time system, shows that existing scheduling methods such as Rate Monotonic (RM) scheduling are not proper to be applied to the system having sporadic tasks with precedence constraints, and proposes an end-to-end laxity-based priority assignment algorithm.

Token bus protocols have been sidely accepted for Medium Access Control (MAC) in real-time networks such as those used in factory automation, distributed process control, nuclear power plant, aircraft and spacecraft. Token bus protocols provide timer-controlled priority mechanism, which offers multiple level of privilege of medium access to different type of traffic. This paper presents and approximate analytical model for the evaluation of variance of waiting time in the time-controlled proiority scheme of token bus protocols. Token bus system is assumed to be operated with singe-service discipline which is the practical case of real-time networks such as those used in distributed process control and factory automations. The approximate analytical model is validated by comparison with the simulation resuls.

In this paper, we discuss about the real-time distributed system for the control of to motors using uCOS-II kernel. Real-time kernel needs to process the tasks for two motors in desired time to synchronize motion. We used both semaphore and message mail box for synchronization. In the previous study, we used step motors for the actuator of two axes robot, but could not draw a clear line because of motor resolution and synchronizing step pulse. To resolve the problem we rebuilt the transfer robot with DC motors and the dedicated position servor which had built in out lab. Moreover we developed the PC based graphic user interface for generating planar drawing image control. Experimental results also presented to show the proposed control system is useful.

This paper proposes a distributed model predictive formation control algorithm for a group of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) with guaranteeing collision avoidance between UGVs. Generally, the model predictive control based formation control has a disadvantage in that it takes a long time to compute control inputs when considering collision avoidance between UGVs. In this paper, in order to overcome this problem, the formation control algorithm is implemented in a distributed manner so that it could be individually controlled. Also, a collision-avoidance method considering real-time is proposed. The proposed formation control algorithm is implemented based on robot operating system (ROS), open source-based middleware. Through the various simulation tests, it is confirmed that the formation control of five UGVs is successfully performed while avoiding collisions between UGVs.

This paper presents an architecture for distributed control systems and its underlying methodological framework. Ideas and concepts of distributed systems, artificial intelligence, and soft computing are merged into a unique architecture to provide cooperation, flexibility, and adaptability required by knowledge processing in intelligent control systems. The distinguished features of the architecture include a local problem solving capability to handle the specific requirements of each part of the system, an evolutionary case-based mechanism to improve performance and optimize controls, the use of linguistic variables as means for information aggregation, and fuzzy set theory to provide local control. A distributed traffic control system application is discussed to provide the details of the architecture, and to emphasize its usefulness. The performance of the distributed control system is compared with conventional control approaches under a variety of traffic situations.

DCS는 분산된 컴퓨터 네크워크를 이용한 통합된 EIC의 다양한 응용기술을 적용할 수 있는 원격 감시 제어가 요구되고 있다. 현재까지는 DCS는 원격 사이트의 플랜트에 대해 실시간성 보장은 기대에 미치지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 TM/TC 시스템을 위한 각 제어기를 기존의 PRS 하드웨어와 GWS, RPS, SRS로 광역화에 맞도록 설계하였으며, 또한 각 구현된 제어기의 실시간을 만족하는 통신처리시간, 시스템 부하율을 분석하여 타당성을 검토하였다.

These fields are integrated to visualize and finalize the proposed development, in simulation environment. SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems and distributed control systems (DCSs) are widely deployed in all over the world, which are designed to control the industrial infrastructures, in real ways. To supervise and control the various parts of designed systems; trends to require a deep knowledge to understand the overall functional needs of industries, which could be a big challenge. Industrial field devices (or network sensors) are usually distributed in many locations and are controlled from centralized site (or main control center); the communication provides various signs of security issues. To handle these issues, the research contribution will twofold: a method using cryptography is deployed in critical systems for security purposes and overall transmission is controlled from main controller site. At controller site, multimedia components are employed to control the overall transmission graphically, such as system communication, bytes flows, security embedded parameters and others, by the means of multimedia technology.
