The new engineering challenges lead to a control of a vehicle more and more complex. To tackle this issue, Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) simulation is used in the development of real-time embedded systems. In this paper, the control of a double parallel hybrid vehicle is validated using a reduced power HIL simulation. A graphical description is used in order to organize the emulation and control. Some experimental results of a versatile testbed are given for the Peugeot $3{\infty}8$ HYbrid4.

Many dynamic control have been proposed; however, most of them are limited within stage of simulation study. The main reason is that the computations required for inverse dynamics are far beyond the ability of the present commercially available microprocessors. In this paper, In order to achieve real-time processing in robot dynamic control, a parallel processing computer for robot dynamic control is implemented using two transputer. Two transputer compute two degree of freedom robot. The transputer is a special purpose MPU for parallel processing. Transputers are used in networks to build a high performance concurrent system. A network of transputers and peripheral controllers is constructed using point-to-point communication. To gain most benifit from the transputer architecture, the whole system is programmed in OCCAM which is a high level language for concurrent applications. This control algorithm is applied to the RHINO SCARA type manipulator. We could taked about 438.6 microseconds to compute robot dynamic with two-processors.

A real-time control system, composed of the controlled processor and the controller computer(s), may have a variety of task types, some of which have tight timing-constraints in generating the correct control input. The maximum period of those task failures tolerable by the system is called the hard deadline, which depends on not only fault characteristics but also task characteristics. In the paper, we extend a method deriving the hard deadline in LTI system executing single task. An algorithm to combine the deadlines of all the elementary tasks in the same operation-mode is proposed to derive the hard deadline of the entire system. For the end, we modify the state equation for the task to capture the effects of task failures (delays in producing correct values) and inter-correlation. We also classify the type of executing the tasks according to operation modes associated with relative importance of correlated levels among tasks, into series, parallel, and cascade modes. Some examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

The kinematics and control problem of a visual alignment system is investigated, which plays a crucial role in the fabrication process of flat panel displays. The first solution is the inverse kinematics of a 4PPR parallel alignment mechanism. It determines the driving distance of each joint to compensate the misalignment between mask and panel. Second, an efficient vision algorithm for fast alignment mark recognition is suggested, where by extracting essential feature points to represent the geometry of a mark, the geometric template matching enables much faster object recognition comparing with the general template matching. Finally, the overall visual alignment process including the kinematic solution, vision algorithm, and joint control is implemented and experimental results are given.

A large capacity power conversion system constructed by using two or more existing power converters has a lot of flexibility in how the power converters are used. However, at the same time, it has a problem of cross current flows between power converters. The cross current must be suppressed by controlling the system while miniaturizing the combination reactor. This paper focuses on two current control methods of a power conversion system constructed by using two power converters connected in parallel supplying the same power. In order to elucidate the control performance of cross current, each control method which are aimed at controlling cross current and not directly controlling it are examined in simulations.

The command of Subway is intended to adjust and control the train operation, and to play a key role of the total passenger transport and all kinds of affairs related to the safe train operation. Also, this can be considered as affairs to be controlled and operated by Total Traffic Control. For the purpose of developing the ATO system in using the new control technology by substituting the conventional ATS equipment, this technical document includes the technical points resulted from doing the replacement construction in the entire section of Subway Line 2 by Seoul Metro. The replacement work with the new ATO System should neither stop nor affect the system under operation while operating the current ATS System. The different systems should not interfere with each other while performing their individual affairs, and be composed to share the important data for the parallel operation. This technology is needed to proceed in assurance of a high degree of reliability.

This paper proposes a parallel processor system which processes cultural assets image recognition and retrieval algorithm in real time. A serial algorithm which is developed for the parallel processor system is parallellized. The parallel processor system consists of a control unit, 100 PE(Processing Elements), and 10 Park's multi-access memory systems which has 11 memory modules per each one. The parallel processor system is simulated by CADENCE Verilog-XL which is a package for the hardware simulation. With the same simulated results as that of the serial algorithm, the speed ratio of the parallel algorithm to the serial one is 81. The parallel processor system we proposed is quite effective for cultural assets image processing.

In this paper, the three dimensional Parallel Realistic Failure Process Analysis ($RFPA^{3D}$-Parallel) code based on micromechanical model is employed to investigate the bonding behavior in FRP sheet bonded to concrete in single shear test. In the model, the heterogeneity of brittle disordered material at a meso-scale was taken into consideration in order to realistically demonstrate the mechanical characteristics of FRP-to-concrete. Modified Mohr-coulomb strength criterion with tension cut-off, where a stressed element can damage in shear or in tension, was adopted and a stiffness degradation approach was used to simulate the initiation, propagation and growth of microcracks in the model. In addition, a Master-Slave parallel operation control technique was adopted to implement the parallel computation of a large numerical model. Parallel computational results of debonding of FRP-concrete visually reproduce the spatial and temporal debonding failure progression of microcracks in FRP sheet bonded to concrete, which agrees well with the existing testing results in laboratory. The numerical approach in this study provides a useful tool for enhancing our understanding of cracking and debonding failure process and mechanism of FRP-concrete and our ability to predict mechanical performance and reliability of these FRP sheet bonded to concrete structures.

In this paper a design of neuro-fuzzy-based predictive controller for nonlinear systems with time-delay is proposed. The proposed control system contains two neuro-fuzzy systems called ANFIS(Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System). One is run as a series-parallel mode and the other is run as a parallel mode. An ANFIS running in series-parallel mode emulates the response of the nonlinear system with time-delay. Another ANFIS running in parallel mode generates the predicted output of the nonlinear system to compensate for the time-delays. Therefore, the proposed control system can be thought of as an extension of Smith-predictor scheme to the nonlinear systems with time-delay. A detailed design Procedure is presented and finally computer simulations are executed for the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

As network resources have become faster and demands for multimedia service through network have increased, the demand for Media server system has increased. These kinds of media server solve their bottle neck problem of internal storage device by using parallel system which takes advantage of fast network resource. Many vendors have suggested each of their media server system to solve these problem radically, but most of them require major modification of infra component and additional drawback has added. For example, storage mechanism for specific media requires new file system which is totally different from traditional one, and algorithm for enhancing performance may not suit for traditional operating system environment. In this paper, we designed a parallel media server based on web interface of traditional system and implemented a program for media server. Implemented server system performs parallel processing through web interface without any modification of traditional system, and controls which is related to merging load by distributed data is charged only to client and control server and consequently load of storage server can be minimized. And also, data transfer protocol for streaming media includes Retransfer algorithm and client Admission control policy relevant to performance of whole system.
