Cyber-physical systems, such as learning robots and other autonomous systems, employ high-integrity software in their safety-critical control. This software is developed using a range of tools, some of which need to be qualified for this purpose according to international standards. In this article, we first evaluate the state of the art of tool qualification for proof assistants, checkers (e.g., model checkers), and generators (e.g., code generators, compilers) by means of a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis. Our focus is on the qualification of tools in the three mentioned categories. Our objective is to assess under which conditions these tools are already fit or could be made fit for use in the practical engineering and assurance of high-integrity controlsoftware. In a second step, we derive a viewpoint and a corresponding range of suggestions for improved tool qualification from the results of our SWOT analysis.2023 Published by Elsevier B.V.

A third generation controlsoftware system for turbogas power units, in a series of modernization projects, is presented. Main objective was to reduce the complexity of its predecessors, to facilitate the integration of new control strategies to enhance the unit’s performance. The automation, control and protection functions performed by previous generations served as requirement specifications. Adaptation of a generalized functional structure for industrial process control in defining the control system software architecture became the project key point. Real-time structured design, and programming lead to the desired higher quality system. Successful integration of a fuzzy speed controller fulfilled the objective.

This paper deals with a new display analysis about characteristics of feedback control systems. By using of computer graphics we construct colour patterns and three-dimensional characteristic diagrams newly. In addition, pole-zero placement and root locus of feedback control systems can be investigated by different points of view. The basic idea of this method is that each dot of colour CRT is assumed to be corresponding with a complex number. In this process there is no need to solve polynomial equation or characteristic equation which has been analyzed using numerical methods. First, complex plane is separated into four open subsets that are coloured respectively by testing signs of the real part and the imaginary one. The neighbourhoods of pole and zero on complex plane are characterized by these coloured subsets. In this way, a colour pattern is introduced on CRT display and it is possible to point approximately pole-zero placement and root locus of control system even though it has time lag. Several examples of colour patterns are shown in order to prove the effectiveness and usefulness for analyzing practical control systems. Lastly, it is suggested that the concept of positive real function is related to the expression considered here, and it can be expanded to three-dimensional display space.

The inverse system problem of robot control is resurveyed. It is found, that the body-fixed coordinate system also plays an important role in computational efficiency of inverse dynamical formulations. The driving-axis coordinate system, whose origin locates on the driving axis of each link, is proposed to derive the recursive Newton-Euler formulation of manipulator inverse dynamics. The new algorithm with considering trivial calculations is implemented using the Assembly language on an INTEL 8086/8087 microprocessor (5 MHz clock). The measurement of computational efficiency shows that this software package marginally satisties the sampling rate criterion of robot control even with a 16-bit microprocessor

A reduced-delay compensation technique is presented to reduce the phase lag caused by the zero-order-hold and transportation lag in digital control systems. Reducing the phase lag would allow a higher control bandwidth to be used in closed loop digital control systems that one could normally achieve. The developed digital compensation can be easily integrated with the original digital controller by means of simple software modifications
