A Case Study: Practical Ethical Aspects for Technology Transfer and Change in Computer Control System Development
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper describes a positive case of practical application of ethics in the automatic control technology change in Poland. The case has its origin in the Automation Design Office of Elwro, the first Polish manufacturer of computers in late sixties. The severe limitations of the technology transfer in the beginning period of the Design Office forced to solve almost all problems with the local staff and home equipment. The paper discusses some results of such conditions. The paper discusses also some negative aspects of the technology transfer process ethics where the recipient countries are treated as lay labour only. Copyright © 2005 IFAC.

Passivity-Based Stability Analysis and Robust Practical Stabilization of Nonlinear Affine Systems with Non-vanishing Perturbations
This paper presents some analyses about the robust practical stability of a class of nonlinear affine systems in the presence of non-vanishing perturbations based on the passivity concept. The given analyses confirm the robust passivity property of the perturbed nonlinear systems in a certain region. Moreover, robust control laws are designed to guarantee the practical stability of the perturbe...

متن کاملDeveloping Reliable yet Flexible Software through If-Then Model Transformation Rules
Developing reliable yet flexible software is a hard problem. Although modeling methods enjoy a lot of advantages, the exclusive use of just one of them, in many cases, may not guarantee the development of reliable and flexible software. Formal modeling methods ensure reliability because they use a rigorous approach to software development. However, lack of knowledge and high cost practically fo...
متن کاملA High Performance Feedback Active Noise Control System
In many active noise control (ANC) applications, an online secondary path modelling method that uses a white noise as a training signal is required. This paper proposes a new feedback ANC system. Here we modified both the FxLMS and the VSS-LMS algorithms to raised noise attenuation and modelling accuracy for the overall system. The proposed algorithm stops injection of the white noise at the op...
