Safety of Computer Control Systems 1986 (Safecomp '86) Trends in Safe Real Time Computer Systems


Book Description

The proceedings of the fifth workshop in this subject continue the trend set by the previous four and discusses some of the current problems involved in the design and production of safe real-time computer systems. Topics covered include software quality assurance, software fault tolerance, design for safety, and reliability and safety assessment. Every paper details the theoretical and practical problems involved in the development of safe systems and should therefore be of interest to all those involved in systems design.




Real Time Programming 1985


Book Description

Examines the entire field of real-time programming, with emphasis on the most recent developments in industrial control and the design of process control systems. The topics covered include programming of statistical quality control applications, graphical languages for real-time programming, programming of personal computers and work stations for real-time applications. Contains 17 papers.




Distributed Computer Control Systems 1995


Book Description

The series of IFAC Workshops on distributed computer control systems (DCCS) provide the opportunity for leading researchers and practitioners in the field to discuss and evaluate recent advances and current issues in theory, applications and technology of DCCS. DCCS'95, the 13th IFAC workshop in the series was held in Toulouse-Blagnac, France. The topics covered at this meeting included: the role of real-time in DCCS specifications; scheduling methods for DCCS; real-time distributed operating systems and databases and industrial applications and experience with DCSS.







Distributed Computer Control Systems 1989


Book Description

The focus of the workshop was on recent advances in the theory, applications and techniques for distributed computer control systems. Topics included: tools and methods for inner layers of DCCS; application papers presenting operational DCCS; the infiltration of true real-time or "time critical" concepts and the emergence of artificial intelligence methods in DCCS applications, leading to novel computer architectures being integrated in computer networks. The book will be of interest not only to those involved in DCCS but also software engineers and distributed computing scientists.




Distributed Computer Control Systems 1986


Book Description

This seventh IFAC workshop on distributed control systems (DCCS) discusses the ideas of real-time synchronization and data consistency in industry, with emphasis on the Manufacturing Automation Protocol (MAP). The volume also debates the gulf between the computer scientist's approach to language and the needs of the application programmer. In addition to treating relevant topics, each session has an introductory paper and a panel discussion, to give a complete picture of the progress and research in this computer field today.




Distributed Computer Control Systems 1985


Book Description

Focuses on recent advances in the theory, applications and techniques for distributed computer control systems. Topics covered include: DCCS applications and case studies, DCCS communications, architectural considerations in DCCS, DCCS tools for design and development, DCCS communication management, function and resource allocation in DCCS, design methodologies for DCCS, DCCS applications and systems. Contains 22 papers.




Safety of Computer Control Systems 1990 (SAFECOMP'90)


Book Description

The market for safe, secure and reliable computer systems is expanding continuously and these Proceedings provide an opportunity to review the growth during the last decade and identify skills and technologies required for continued development in the area. The papers cover the experiences gained from specifying, creating, operating, and licensing computers in safety, security and reliability related applications. There are reviews of guidelines and industrial applications, with a section covering methods and tools used in designing, documenting, analysing, testing and assessing systems dependent on the SAFECOMP factors.
