CARRUTHERS, JAMES F.CANADIAN FORCESCdr. James F. Carruthers is a native of Drumheller
Alberta Canada. He joined the Royal Canadian Navy in 1961 and attended the Royal Roads Military College from 1961 to 1963 receiving his BE degree in Electrical Engineering. Following Pre-Fleet Training he was assigned to HMCS Gatineau for watchkeeping and engineering training. Work on the prototype AN/SQS-505 Sonar ASROC Missile System and the prototype ASW Data System (ASWDS) followed including shipboard installation and evaluation of the system in HMCS Terra Nova during which time he was the “guinea pig” Combat Systems Engineer. Later during the construction phase of the Canadian Navy's Combined Support Center he acted as Principal Engineer subsequently returning to graduate studies at the Nova Scotia Technical College in 1971 from which he received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering designing and building a computer intended for ship machinery health monitoring in the process. Posted to Headquarters in 1974 he served as Project Officer for a mini command and control system known as ADLIPS his additional interests being that of originating plasma and digital television developments. It was during this period that the SHINPADS concept was first put forward and following a year at the Canadian Forces Command and Staff College he was promoted to his present rank in 1977 and posted as Head of the Naval Command and Control Design Authority (DCMS 7). Cdr. Carruthers is a registered Professional Engineer (Ontario). and as an author has had several technical papers published on digital design machinery health monitoring and the SHINPADS concept. At the present time he is Assistant Director Maritime Combat Systems at the National Defense Headquarters in Ottawa where his current responsibilities include all aspects of C2systems. A member of ASNE since February 1978 he is also a member of IEEE U.S. Naval Institute and the IEEE Computer Society.
The Shipboard Integrated processing And Display System (SHINPADS) is a Canadian Forces Trademark, and is not really a system. It is rather a concept of ship integration. Not combat system integration or propulsion and...

This book reflects the considerable current industrial interest and investment in processcontrolsystems. The use of computersystems in processcontrol can provide great benefits, and it is estimated that efficiency can be increased by up to 30%. It is not surprising, therefore, that there have been considerable efforts by system designers and users to introduce and use such systems. process hardware is integrated into a complete production system through data processing. It is for this purpose that technical specialists (e. g. electrical, mechanical, electronics, communication and process engineers and program mers) are involved in data processing. The scope of this book is therefore to assist in the selection of computer hardware and software that match the functional specification of the data processing component of a particular system. The principal points covered in this book are set out below. Part One: Production process hardware for a standard process is outlined and the information processing hardware is described. Large mechanical process hardware and process information devices (e. g. sensors and control elements involved in the process) create a coherent production unit, or system, which can be the control unit (i. e. the basic process unit). The hardware processes are described and the mathematics explained. This enables the application of control laws in order to linearize the process about its working point, as well as a stratification of processcontrol tasks.

The paper describes a computer-based system for the on-line control of the material flow in a large automated warehouse at ASEA, Västerås, Sweden. This warehouse contains a storage for up to 10, 000 pallets, served by 5 automatic stacker cranes as well as an automatic bar storage for 1700 cases. An ASEA System 1700 processcomputer performs a number of functions of which the more important are: - Dispatch of stackers and maneuvering of conveyors according to demands for storing and retrieving material, including planning for maximum of efficiency. - Allocation of storage space to different items according to decision rules based on frequency of demand and physical restrictions, aiming at optimum utilization of available space. - Issuing of picking lists to personnel at the picking stations. - Communication with the main computer centre, where the company's centralized material planning is accomplished in an IBH 360 computer. - Calculation of the optimum cutting procedure for bar material and presentation of the results to the personnel on a CRT display.
