Programmable Logical controller based safety systems are spreading in the oil industry. Provided that some precaution are taken, PLC's can lead to good level of safety and fairly low rate of spurious shutdowns. However, some advances have to be made in the field of built-in self-monitoring devices, especially for input and output cards.

All existing decentralized control systems make use of different communication techniques between device-subsystems. This impedes the configuration of user systems with components from different sources and requires a common solution for bit serial process data transmission. On the background of industrial requirements two common approaches are presented, discussed and compared.

A development and test facility for microprocessor based control algorithms has been devised with emphasis on minimising hardware cost and making the maximum use of existing facilities. A minicomputer with resident cross assembler is used to develop control programs which can be directly transferred by a digital interface to a microprocessor acting as a digital controller in a hybrid simulation of the system dynamics. This configuration allows both hardware and software elements of any installation to be simultaneously evaluated. The facility is applied to the design of compensators for a chemical process.

A top-down design procedure for the early stages of a microprocessor based controller design problem is presented in this paper. Problem definition and preliminary design are treated. Information structure, algorithms, software and hardware have to be evaluated, assessed and chosen in this phase. Two examples demonstrate how the process can be applied to actual problems

This paper reviews the basic features of a high-level, interactive, conversational language called L-A-S (Linear AIgebra and Systems). Particular emphasis is placed upon recent developments of this computer-Aided Design (CAD) language. Unlike the conventional menu-driven approach of many CAD packages, L -A -S provides the user with considerable flexibility in the development and maintenance of linear algebra and control algorithms. L-A-S is both a language and an interpreter. Users or L-A-S write programes while interacting with the Interpreter. Programs may he edited, stored, recalled, and executed with the same or a differernt data set. L-A-S data strunures include matrices, polynomials (continuos or discrete). and matrices of polynomials. In this paper. we briefly review the basics or the L-A-S language. Then. we concentrate on those features of L-A-S which have been added within the last year. These include the Multiple Operator Statement (MOS), L-A-S lNT-delined suhroutines. and the most-reccnt “echo” feature for interaction with the interpreter. Example, accompany the text to illustrate each new feature.

The control system adopted for L-SAT is based on a zero-momentum concept relatively insensitive to spacecraft configuration changes. This flexibility is further enhanced by the use of a microprocessor based controller. The overall AOCS configuration adopted is described, the theoretical design aspects outlined and the functions and implementation of the controller discussed. The subsystem electronic configuration concentrates the majority of control sequence algorithm implementation, telemetry, telecommand and power control into the controller. This unit communicates to other subsystem equipments through use of a high reliability serial data bus. A similar data bus is used internally in the controller providing a highly modular design concept which enables a wide range of applications to be met using the flexibility of software.

This contribution refers to certain problems bearing upon the formation of a system generator programing medium of an automatic synthesis for the modular construction of a packaged program for real time technological process control. The package is made up of standard subroutines-functional modules, carrying out the basic control functions. The user defines the task in the problem-oriented "graf language" designed by an analysis of project documentation for automated systems of technological process control. From the viewpoint of software, this is an establishment of a communication and synchronization system, implemented by standard connectors and starting subroutines, operating over the central database and by a system of tables for recording required items of information on the structure of the control package.

The mathematical description of the process of property formation is an essential prerequisition for improving the control of particleboard plants by application of process control systems. The results of the process modelling in performing passive trials in industrial plants are reported on. The available measurement technique and the knowledge of technological relationships limit at present still the mathematical description of the overall process considerably. The paper emphasizes the presentation of possibilities for the stepwise development of process models.

This paper describes a realtime digital train simulator which was realized to develop real braking devices. The main originalities of this simulator consists in the solutions introduced in order to allow a true simulation of the reality at reasonable price. In particular, in the modelling, we simplified the coupling static characteristics. This made it possible an analytic solution of the motion and coupling equations and therefore a reduction of the computing power requirements. On the other hand, to limit the hardware cost, we adopted a multiprocessor architecture where the simulation processors work in pipeline.
