  • Multi-media presentation system based on a distributed control network

    Creator:
    Baily, Albert L.
    Abstract:
    Control oriented local area networks (COLANs) are being installed in factories at an increasing rate. Traditionally, process control has operated with a master scheduler (computer) monitoring a number of points in a control grid. As the complexity of today's process control needs grow, the need to process information locally increases....

  • Hybrid-Meshnet, a local area mesh network with distributed control

    Creator:
    Kang, Cheoul Shin
    Abstract:
    Hybrid-Meshnet is a communication subnet architecture for local area networks (LANs) designed to achieve a high degree of network performance and flexibility. These objectives are achieved by utilizing a dual channel structure. A token ring is used for short or prioritized data transmissions. A complimentary mesh network with arbitrary data...

  • A controller for internet protocol routing of AX.25 packets

    Creator:
    Reinalda, Johannes K.
    Abstract:
    Amateur Packet Radio Networking presently uses the NET/ROM protocol to establish the network. NET/ROM is considered to be insufficient to support the expected growth of the network. This research work proposes to use the TCP/IP protocol suite instead to build the network. A comparison between features of both protocols supports...

  • Fault diagnosis in a fully distributed local computer network

    Creator:
    Kwag, Hye Keun
    Abstract:
    Local computer networks are being installed in diverse application areas. Many of the networks employ a distributed control scheme, which has advantages in performance and reliability over a centralized one. However, distribution of control increases the difficulty in locating faulty hardware elements. Consequently, advantages may not be fully realized unless...

  • CLASSLAN, an experimental personal computer network for classroom education

    Creator:
    Zhou, Yaqin
    Abstract:
    Interest in personal computer networks has grown rapidly in recent years. As the personal computer becomes more and more popular, implementing computer networks on those small computers has become an interesting topic. Such networks are usually inexpensive and can be easily installed and maintained. In this thesis work, CLASSLAN, such...

  • Tone burst deconvolution

    Creator:
    Rathja, Roy C.
    Abstract:
    The suitability of discrete least-squares optimal (Wiener) filters for deconvolution of tone-burst waveforms is studied. It is shown that: (1) such waveforms are not well suited to these filters without preprocessing, (2) the use of exponential weighting results in a significant improvement in filter performance and (3) that "phase-unwrapping" in...

  • Concurrent message transmission on short delay ring networks

    Creator:
    Xu, Mingcheng
    Abstract:
    Two new medium access protocols for ring type local area networks, CTR (Concurrent Token Ring) protocol and DRUID (Destination Removal withoUt Intermediate node Delay) ring protocol, are proposed, designed and analyzed. A destination partial removal technique is designed and used in these two protocols to support concurrent message transmission and...

  • 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...

  • Implementation of display control node for a distributed microcontroller network

    Creator:
    Xu, Yan, 1954-
    Abstract:
    As hardware becomes cheaper and cheaper, there is an increasing interest in the implementation of distributed control networks with microcontrollers. Such networks are usually inexpensive and of high performance. In this thesis work, a low-cost display control unit for COLAN, a control-oriented network, is designed. The system is based on...

  • 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...
