PLATO, ARTIS I.GAMBREL, WILLIAM DAVIDArtis I. Plato:is Head of the Design Work Study/ Shipboard Manning/Human Factors Engineering Section
Systems Engineering and Analysis Branch Naval Ship Engineering Center (NAVSEC). He graduated from the City College of New York in 1956 receiving his Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering degree. Following this he started work at the New York Naval Shipyard in the Internal Combustion Engine and Cargo Elevator Section. During 1957 and 1958 he was called up for active duty with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and served in Europe with a Construction Engineer Battalion. After release from active duty he returned to the shipyard where he remained until 1961 when he transferred to the Naval Supply Research and Development Facility Bayonne New Jersey. Initially he was in charge of an Engineering Support Test Group and the drafting services for the whole Facility. Later he became a Project Engineer in the Food Services Facilities Branch with duties that included planning and designing new afloat and ashore messing facilities for the Navy. In 1966 he transferred to NAVSEC as a Project Engineer in the Design Work Study Section and in this capacity worked on selected projects and manning problems for new construction and also developed a computer program (Manpower Determination Model) that makes accurate crew predictions for feasibility studies. In 1969 he became Head of the Section. He has been active in the U.S. Army Reserve since his release from active duty and his duties have included command of an Engineer Company various Staff positions and his present assignment as Operations Officer for a Civil Affairs Group. He has completed the U. S. A rmy Corps of Engineers Career Course and the Civil Affairs Career Course and is presently enrolled in the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College non-resident course. Additionally he completed graduate studies at American University Washington D.C in 1972 receiving his MSTM degree in Technology of Management and is a member of ASE ASME CAA U. S. Naval Instit
The purpose of this paper is to discuss a system analysis technique called “Design Work Study”, that is used by the U.S. Navy for the development of improved ship control systems. The Design Work Study approach is o...

The techniques for the production of diagnostic messages through the use of a message generator are reviewed briefly. A detailed description of the implementation of such a message generator for the PLUTO PL/I student compiler is presented. Statistics on the performance of this generator are presented to show that significant savings in storage space are obtained while maintaining a very high level of program detail reporting in the diagnostic messages.

This paper presents extensions of the differential performance sensitivity of infinitesimal parameter variations when a minimum fuel performance is to be implemented. The system is assumed to be linear with free end time, and with initial and final target manifolds. A result previously obtained by Rootenberg and Courtin (1973) was instrumental in establishing the relations that led to the current extension. The expression, that relates the variations of the performance index for the bang-bang control implementation, is shown to represent the performance sensitivity when a minimum fuel performance is implemented, thus generalizing the expression of differential sensitivity to a wider class of optimal systems.
Increased usage of prefabricated structural components and the advantages offered by folded plate roofs necessitates the optimization of their configurations. In order to reduce the material expenditure, transportatio...
