  • Distributed architecture and fast parallel algorithms in real-time robot control

    Creator:
    Binder, Eli Eliyahu
    Abstract:
    Control algorithms for accurate and fast moving robots require the use of the complete dynamic model of the robot. The complete dynamic model takes into account the nonlinearity and coupling terms of the whole structure. The time of computing the dynamic equations determines whether they are usable in practical applications....

  • COLAN IV, a local area network for communications and control

    Creator:
    Thye, Yong
    Abstract:
    This thesis discusses the design and development of a viable local area network (LAN) which supports both communications and control applications. The emphasis was to develop a practical and cost effective system which offered high performance while utilizing low cost components. System cost was kept low by utilizing a twisted-pair...

  • A multiprocessor node for communication and control

    Creator:
    Atluri, Venkata Ram
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the design and implementation of "A multiprocessor node for communication and control" (MPCC). MPCC is a high speed, high performance local area network capable of performing real time control tasks. This is achieved by the concurrent operation of two 8051 microcontrollers, a dual port RAM and the...

  • Taskmaster II, a versatile distributed system for control

    Creator:
    Schaal, Hans-Werner
    Abstract:
    This thesis discusses a special type of a versatile, distributed control system, the Taskmaster II. It includes a detailed specification of a readily realizable Taskmaster system utilizing a layered communication among units, oriented on the ISO OSI seven layer model. The specification was developed from the analysis of previous research...

  • A programmable system scheduler for control oriented local area networks (COLAN)

    Creator:
    Lim, Choo-chiang
    Abstract:
    The Control-Oriented Local Area Network (COLAN) is a distributed control system for a series of networked microcontrollers, which has been under development at Oregon State University since 1986. A reliable master controller, functioning both as a task scheduler and as a network controller, is required to allow users to perform...

  • COLAN III, a control-oriented LAN using CSMA/CD protocol

    Creator:
    Eum, Doo-hun
    Abstract:
    COLAN III is a control oriented LAN designed to achieve reasonable network performance and flexibility at low cost. These objectives are achieved by utilizing inexpensive microcontrollers (8031s) and hardware support. The CSMA/CD network protocol with single bus structure has been employed in COLAN III as an arbitration method to control...

  • A simple local area network, COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network)

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yuepeng
    Abstract:
    COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network ) is a redesign of the Task-Master, a daisy-chain structure distributed control system. COLAN is a simple bus structure communication subnetwork intended for distributed control applications. Low cost and simplicity are two main design criteria. Point-to-point and broadcast communications are possible. A packet switching...
