But, because they are not connected with other industry homepages and don't offer a place that workers can express their thoughts and share common interests with other industry workers, cyber cultures among industry workers couldn't have built. In this paper, we propose an Online Community Among Industry workers (OCAIw) that workers in different industries can interchange or share their technical information, participate in discussion of their experiences on work, share their common interests, and be provided latest news in real-time. Our results show that OCAIw can contribute to make a healthy virtual culture.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132320018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Phase Locked Loop (PLL) is an important component of such systems. This paper describes the development of a three phase PLL for utility angle measurement using a new Bit-Stream control technique, which has several advantages when used for power electronics applications. The PLL structure is developed from standard design equations, and then modeled in full detail using VHDL descriptions of Bit-Stream components. Comparisons of VHDL simulation results with Matlab / Simulink models of the PLL shows that the Bit-Stream version behaves as expected, demonstrating that the Bit-Stream technique is suitable for the implementation of PLL systems.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130140588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the first step an AUV, named URASHIMA was built in 1999, and sea trials have been held since 2000. URASHIMA dived to 3,518m depth in 2001.

This functionality works cooperatively to translate pan stage industrial process models, used during the forward prediction of pan stage operating conditions, to a time scale basis by dynamically allocating forecast processing quantities to predefined intervals over the prediction horizon. The innovative dynamic allocation procedure outlined underpins the prediction ability of the process models, acting in a backbone capacity, to establish forecasting capabilities for the system. The primary topic of this paper will be a description of the approach and how it supports the predictive modelling with focus on: (1) design features, (2) implementation and (3) application to the prediction of syrup quantities to the pan stage from cane receival and juice processing information.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132908759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the polynomial fuzzy modeling, we can obtain the linearized tracking error dynamics such that both LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) and SOS approaches can be applied. Since SOS approach handles more nonlinear system characteristics than LMI, we can obtain the better tracking performance, which is demonstrated in the numerical simulations. The proposed method has advantages in that the control structure can be simplified and it can be further extended to accommodate the input saturation, disturbance compensation, etc., which is well developed for LMI control methods.","PeriodicalId":405687,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology","volume":"126 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133009501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
