Industrial computer-based processors, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), have been developed to perform control functions and provide the operator with visual information to allow him to operate and control the plant. The PLCs are configurable, via specifically written software code, to perform a variety of control actions, and have the mathematical functionality required to control...

In this paper, we present the static analysis capabilities of Arcade.PLC: A tool to check software for Programmable Logic Controllers, which are frequently used in industry to control or monitor technical processes. These devices are usually programmed using domain specific programming languages and unorthodox programming practices such as a huge number of variables and large function size. Thi...

This paper presents various formal approaches in the development of logic control algorithms. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are commonly used in automation and the algorithms running on them tend to be quite complex. This motivates the application of formal approaches to PLC programming. The approaches range from completely formalized design methods on the one end over the verification ...

An intelligent fuzzy logic inference pipeline for the control of a dc-dc buck-boost converter was designed and built using a semi-custom VLSI chip. The fuzzy linguistics describing the switching topologies of the converter was mapped into a look-up table that was synthesized into a set of Boolean equations. A VLSI chip–a field programmable gate array (FPGA) was used to implement the Boolean equ...

The paper presents a methodology of designing control logic that is implemented by industrial programmable logic controllers. The approach is based on discrete-event model of a plant to be controlled and a set of interlock and sequential specification models. Supervisory control theory is used to test the controllability of the specifications and in the final stage, to derive a model of the adm...
