This study was an attempt to control and monitor Computerized Numerical Controller (CNC) machines anywhere and anytime for the development of a ubiquitous machine (u-machine). With a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) phone, the machine status and machining data of CNC machines can be monitored in wired and wireless environments, including the environments of IMT2000 and Wireless LAN. Moreover, CNC machines can be controlled anywhere and anytime. The concept of the anywhere-anytime controlling and monitoring of a manufacturing system was implemented in this study for the purpose of u-manufacturing and u-machines. In this concept, the communication between the CNC controller and the PDA phone was successfully performed anywhere and anytime for the real-time monitoring and control of CNC machines. In addition, the interface between the CNC controller and the developed application module was implemented by Object linking and embedding for Process Control (OPC) and shared CNC memory. For communication, the design of a server contents module within the target CNC was based on a TCP/IP. Furthermore, the client contents module within the PDA phone was designed with the aid of embedded c++ programming for mobile communication. For the interface, the monitoring data, such as the machine status, the machine running state, the name of the Numerical Control (NC) program, the alarm and the position of the stage axes, were acquired in real time from real machines with the aid of the OPC method and by sharing the CNC memory. The control data, such as the start, hold, emergency stop, reserved start and reserved stop, were also applied to the CNC domain of the real machine. CNC machines can therefore be controlled and monitored in real time, anywhere and anytime. Moreover, prompt notification from CNC machines to mobile phones, including cellular phones and PDA phones, can be automatically realized in emergencies.

This paper provides a real-time loading strategy for batch processing machines in which a number of jobs are simultaneously processed as a batch. The batch processing machines can be seen in both manufacturing industries (e.g., semiconductor, automobile and metal working) and service industries (transportation vehicles, mail shipment and theme park). This paper focuses on batch processing machines in semiconductor manufacturing. We present a look-ahead loading strategy for tardiness minimization where future arrivals and due dates are taken into consideration. Simulation tests are performed on the presented strategy and some existing loading heuristics under various production settings with different traffic intensities and forecasting errors. Experimental results show that our strategy provides the performance of good quality.

Kernel machines are used widely in real-world regression tasks. Kernel ridge regressions(KRR) and support vector machines(SVM) are typical kernel machines. Here, we focus on two types of KRR. One is inductive KRR. The other is transductive KRR. In this paper, we study how differently they work in the interpolation and extrapolation areas. Furthermore, we study prediction interval estimation method for KRR. This turns out to be a reliable and practical measure of prediction interval and is essential in real-world tasks.

The paper considers the problem of improving the productivity of surface mounting in the printed circuit board(PCB) assembly line. This problem is generally divided into two problems ; real assignment problem and pick-and -place sequencing problem which are known to have no polynomial time algorithms. In the last ten years algorithm designers have been trying to solve them separately. However they need to be solved jointly because they are highly interrelated. This paper proposes an evolutionary algorithm which can consider the two problems jointly and thus yield a better solution. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm computer simulation is performed on real-life surface mounting machines. The proposed algorithm is expected to reduce the assembly time of surface mounting machines and thus improve the productivity.

The parallel machines scheduling problems is one of the combinatorial optimization problems that often occurs in the real world. This problem is classified into two cases, one of which is the case which processing time are identical and the other, nonidentical. Not so much researches have been made on the case that nonidentical parallel machines scheduling problem. This study proposes Tabu Search methods for solving parallel machines scheduling problems related to due dates: minimizing mean tardiness, minimizing the number of tardy jobs, minimizing the maximum tardiness.

This paper presents the organisation and the technical structure of a remote controlled laboratory in the field of high dynamic drives and motion control. It is part of the PEMCWebLab project with the goal of providing students with practical experience on real systems in the field of power electronics and drives. The whole project is based on clear targets and leading ideas. A set of experiments can be remotely performed on a real system to stepwise identify a two axes positioning system and to design different cascaded control loops. Each single experiment is defined by its goals, the content of how to achieve them, and a verification of the results as well as the achieved learning outcomes. After a short description of the PEMCWebLab project, the structure of the remote control is presented together with the hardware applied. One important point is error handling as real machines and power electronics are applied. Finally, a selection of experiments is presented to show the graphical user interface and the sequence of the laboratory.

Rotating machines are an integral part of large electrical power machinery in most of the industries. Any degradation or outages in the rotating electric machinery can result in significant losses in productivity. It is critical to monitor the equipment for any degradation's so that it can serve as an early warning for adequate maintenance activities and repair. Prior research and field studies have indicated that the rotating machines have a particular type of signal structure during the initial start-up transient. A machine performance can be studied based on the effect of degradation in signal parameters. In this paper a data-acquisition system and the FFT algorithm has been design and model using the MATLAB and Simulink. The implementation had been carried out on the TMS320 DSP Processor and various testing and verification of the machine performance had been carried out. The results show good agreement with expected results for both simulated and real-time data. The real-time data from AC water pumps which have rotating motors built-in were collected and analysed. The FFT algorithm provides frequency response and based on this frequency response performance of the machine had been measured.The FFT algorithm provides only approximation about the machine performances.

This study presents the performance analysis of real-time orbit determination and prediction for navigation message generation of Regional Navigation Satellite System (RNSS). Since the accuracy of ephemeris and clock correction in navigation message affects the positioning accuracy of the user, it is essential to construct a ground segment that can generate this information precisely when designing a new navigation satellite system. Based on a real-time architecture by an extended Kalman filter, we simulated orbit determination and prediction of RNSS satellites in order to assess the accuracy of orbit and clock prediction and signal-in-space ranging errors (SISRE). As a result of the simulation, the orbit and clock accuracy was at 0.5 m and 2 m levels for 24 hour determination and six hour prediction after the determination, respectively. From the prediction result, we verified that the SISRE of RNSS for six hour prediction was at a 1 m level.

Manufacturing environment is getting characterized by unstable market demand,short product life cycle and timebased competition. For adapting this environment,machine tools have to be further versatile functionally in order to reduce part's set-up time. Unlike existing manufacturing systems mainly to focus on part flow, it is important to control tool flow using fast tool change device and tool delivery device in parallel machines consisting of versatile machine tools, because complete operations on a part can be performed on one machine tool in a single machine set-up. In this paper, under dynamic tool allocation strategy to share tools among machine tools, we propose a real-time tool allocation and operation esequence model with an objective of minimizing flow time using autonomy and negotiation of agents in parallel machines
