Utilization of Autonomous Surface Vessel (ASV) technology on hydrographic surveys in the Arctic result in significant time savings to field operations while simultaneously improving safety and providing more capability.
With the development of civilization into urban areas, agriculture has been forced to adapt to less space and limited resources. Developments in urban farming and robotics have produced the personal food computer, a device producing a controlled environment for hydroponic plant growth. As many pharmaceuticals originate from chemicals found in plants, investigation of chemicals relevant to human health...
A real-time remote data acquisition and process monitor system based on ARM and Ethernet is designed for automatic filling line. The whole scheme of the system is analyzed and the hardware and software design of the system is discussed in details. Though obtaining intuitive image video information and analyzing the real-time display data or history date which come from the production line, people...
The fruit export market in Chile lacks of an online system or procedure for quality control of export fruit, which considers the minimum mandatory parameters that different types of fruit must meet in order to be exportable to different destinations. To solve this problem, we designed an information system that allows the online control quality of export fruits during the different stages of the productive...
A new structural diagram of the control system for the production process (PP) of proportional electromagnets is proposed. The device includes a device for monitoring and analyzing the electrical parameters of proportional electromagnets in order to obtain information on the PP progress. It is proposed to carry out the measurement of the dynamic magnetization characteristic (DMC) for quality control...
An imitating model for monitoring the work of a workshop that executes several technological processes was developed. Model was developed with usage of probability theory methods, mathematical statistics, and the theory of random processes. The model visualizes a certain set of states of the executed operations belonging to the technological process and allows user to track the percentage of failure...
A set of methods for estimating the parameters of the production process is proposed. This set includes expert assessments, Pareto analysis and elements of neural networks based artificial intelligence. The set forms up the methodology for assessing the state of the production process and forecasting its implementation. The sequence of application of individual methods is substantiated. Algorithms...
Scaling clusters is no longer the only struggle in moving towards exascale in HPC. While scaling components such as the network and file systems is a widely accepted need, monitoring, on the other hand, is often left behind in the procurement of these large systems. Monitoring is often quite an afterthought that is expected to be incorporated in existing infrastructure. While that often works for...
On the example of operations for manufacturing the “Axis” detail, the effectiveness of statistical control of the technological production process for the “Nalchik plant of highvoltage equipment” is demonstrated. Specific recommendations on the effective quality assurance of parts are given.
Development of science and technologies dictates need for development of new methods of management of quality. Along with already available methods and the systems of quality management new approaches appear. Some directions of improvement existing and creations of new tools, methods and the systems of quality management are shown in article.
Network traffic captures are necessary for a variety of security applications like identification of malicious patterns or training of intrusion detection systems. While monitoring of enterprise networks is common practice, it is rarely done for industrial production environments due to low bandwidth, confidential production data and sensitive legacy components. To address these challenges, we present...
Process control theory has developed to the point where advanced controllers are able to perform optimization and even planning functions on complex, possibly nonlinear, processes. Advances in digital technologies have enabled the industrial implementation of many of these automation strategies, resulting in the process industry achieving all-time highs in production with less need for human intervention...
Virtual flow metering (VFM) is an attractive and cost-effective solution to meet the rising multiphase flow monitoring demands in the petroleum industry. It can also augment and backup physical multiphase flow metering. In this study, a heterogeneous ensemble of neural networks and regression trees is proposed to develop a VFM model utilizing bootstrapping and parameter perturbation to generate diversity...
By means of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data, our aim in this work is to examine the ground deformation changes of eight agricultural plains in northwestern part of Turkey. This part of the country is tectonically active, highly vegetated, experiencing rapid human population growth and infrastructural change. All these influences make the agricultural plains monitoring and control...
Real time monitoring of vegetation conditions is of paramount importance, particularly for food insecure countries, to detect possible crop and pastures production drops as early as possible. This monitoring is classically based on remote sensing indicators of vegetation conditions (typically NDVI and rainfall produced every ten days at a resolution of 1 km or more) and many web portals now offer...
Nutraceutical products are functional foods consumed by many for its proclaimed benefits to health. Most nutraceutical products are not pharmaceutical drugs, hence has been treated as food. This made nutraceutical regulation more difficult since they do not fall under the jurisdiction of pharmaceutical regulatory authorities. Accordingly, Control of Drugs and Cosmetics Regulation 1984 and related...
Increased competition and customer' expectations forces industries (1st) to react more quickly and agile to marked trends, (2nd) to shorten their product release cycles, and (3rd) to create innovative and intelligent products able to self-adapt to their owners' or licensee' requirements depending on the current context. This paper presents (1st) an overview of a novel ICT engineering platform for...
Tapioca starch is the important for Thai agricultural industry economy. According to the 4th industrial revolution, cyber-physical system becomes the key technology to enable vertical and horizontal automation system integration. This study aims to develop cyber-physical system based production monitoring for tapioca starch production. To achieve the service oriented architecture (SOA) based solution...
In this work, we present a monitoring system for Self-Organizing Industrial Systems (SOIS). It is based on an anomaly detection approach which evaluates the movement of objects within a factory by putting them together from sub-trajectories. By introducing two metrics — relative user frequency and pathlet occurence per user — the existing method is extended so that not only anomalous trajectories...
About a decade ago, the fourth industrial revolution, also known as Industrie 4.0, has been ushered by the introduction of the Internet of Things and Services into the manufacturing environment. Since production and manufacturing control systems are increasingly networked and connected, the complexity of modern distributed cyber-physical production systems (CPPS) requires new tools for monitoring,...
