Databases have been proposed as the chosen platform to develop automated control systems for environments where the state of the system changes rapidly, and actions need to be taken with timing constraints, such as stock trading, air tra c control, network management and process control to name a few. The workload in such systems consist primarily of two types: (a) updates, which report the sta...

In this paper the effect on energy consumption and pollution of fuzzy automatic control of a rotary kiln is investigated. The computer-based fuzzy control system is installed at the Larko ferronickel plant in Larymna, Greece, by the Danish firm F .L. Smidth & Co. A/S. Operation characteristics for the manual operation against automatic control are defined and compared. Preliminary results show ...

the estimation of metallurgical parameters of flotation process from froth visual features is the ultimate goal of a machine vision based control system. in this study, a batch flotation system was operated under different process conditions and metallurgical parameters and froth image data were determined simultaneously. algorithms have been developed for measuring textural and physical froth ...

conclusion scout views may be useful in determining dose and image quality in ct scanning; however, it is necessary to first determine the most appropriate scout view for ct scans. background while using the automatic exposure control technique in computed tomography (ct), the scout view determines the radiation dose for the ct scan by taking anatomical morphology into consideration. objectives...

controller design and optimization problems, with more than one objective, are referred as multiple objectives or multiple attributed problems. in this paper, a novel method is proposed for designing optimum pid controller that is called genetic multiple attributed decision making method (gmadm). this method is newer than the previous methods and in this paper some options are considered that h...
