In this paper we present Emergencia, a software tool prototype to support the coordinator of an emergency (e.g. at a large industrial site) in the process of taking the appropriate decisions to solve the emergency situation with minimal impact on safety and devastation. Such a coordinator usually performs this task with the help of an emergency plan, a printed document describing relevant procedures to follow during an emergency. Emergency plans of large sites can easily contain hundreds of pages and might be difficult to use when decisions need to be taken quickly. Instead of browsing such a document in search for the relevant procedures, Emergencia guides the coordinator through this document and pro-actively suggests appropriate procedures to follow and pertinent decisions and measures to take, by considering the current status of the emergency situation.

The real-time performance of control network between process control system(PCS) in a nuclear power plant is an important factor to ensure safety and reliability of power plant. Ethernet network is widely adopted in modern PCS even though it does not guarantee hard real-time performance in the non-safety region of a nuclear power plant. To achieve better real-time performance and QoS(Quality of Service), PCS usually uses switched Ethernet with the priority feature, which is based on the IEEE 802.1Q/p protocol. However, the IEEE 802.1Q/p protocol also has a priority inversion problem when transmission of a higher-priority frame is requested during transmission of a lower-priority frame. To resolve this problem, this paper proposes Preemptive Switched Ethernet(PSE) that is based on the IEEE 802.1Q/p protocol with a preemption mechanism. This paper shows that PSE provides better real-time performance than the standard IEEE 802.1Q/p protocol especially when non-real-time and real-time traffics are mixed together. This paper also implements PSE controller using the FPGA (Virtex-4) and MicroBlaze processor. From the implementation results, PSE controller shows an improved latency and jitters of transmission period compare to the normal Ethernet controller. Experiment result shows that the jitter of real-time packet is 50% less than the standard 802.1Q/p protocol.

This paper provides a classification of high efficiency switching power-gyrator structures and their use as cells for energy processing in photovoltaic solar facilities. Having into account the properties of these topologies presented in the article, their inclusion in solar facilities allows increasing the performance of the whole installation. Thus, the design, simulation and implementation of a G-type power gyrator are carried out throughout the text. In addition, in order to obtain the maximum power from the photovoltaic solar panel, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is mandatory in the energy processing path. Therefore, the practical implementation carried out includes a control loop of the power gyrator in order to track the aforementioned maximum power point of the photovoltaic solar panel.

Conventional reliability testing of microelectronic power devices requires dedicated test systems. In order to test a statistically meaningful set of devices, only simplified stress pattern generation through a centralized controller is performed due to cost restrictions. Knowledge about device performance and failure time is commonly obtained by periodically removing the device from the test setup and performing a measurement on a different test hardware. In this paper, we propose a distributed power semiconductor stress test and measurement architecture to overcome limitations of existing test systems. We show that a local smart controller close to the tested device reduces the centralized system complexity by dividing the reliability testing problem into smaller tasks.

This paper presents a hybrid MAC layer design for UWB based sensor networks to handle multiple access with the ability to combine localization and data communication. UWB networks allow high precision ranging and robust data communication in harsh environmental conditions and for this are well suited for typical automation applications. To minimize localization errors in this applications, e. g. by moving sensor nodes, rangings have strong realtime requirements and must be done in a distinct pre-defined order. This can not be guaranteed in common MAC layer implementations, which are typically based on the IEEE 802.15.3 standard with contention access (CSMA/CA) and contention free access part (TDMA). The MAC scheme proposed in this paper overcomes this limitations as the contention access part is replaced by a TDMA/CDMA scheme. Evaluation results presented in this paper show that this novel approach outperforms existing schemes and fulfils the requirement for realtime ranging and communication.

Increasing awareness of ICS security issues has brought about a growing body of work in this area, including pioneering contributions based on realistic control system logs and network traces. This paper surveys the state of the art in ICS security research, including efforts of industrial researchers, highlighting the most interesting works. Research efforts are grouped into divergent areas, where we add “secure control” as a new category to capture security goals specific to control systems that differ from security goals in traditional IT systems.

In this work we describe a cognitive model to infer the more likely user's states in data-intensive contexts. Stress, mental fatigue, or even inaptitude, are selected to be inferred by the model based two sources of information: context and psycho-physiological sensors network. As long as a complex, high demanding context will predict those cognitive states that, in turn, will be diagnosed by the set of sensors (EEG and ECG). All these input variables are represented in a probabilistic model in which links are defined based on the literature. The outcome of the model is a probability of being inapt to perform in a suitable way. In case of inaptitude, assistance should be delivered to the user to normalize the current user's state.

Emergency response applications require the processing of large amounts of data, generated by a diverse set of sensors and devices, in order to provide for an accurate and concise view of the situation at hand. The adoption of semantic technologies allows for the definition of a formal domain model and intelligent data processing and reasoning on this model based on generated device and sensor measurements. This paper presents a novel approach to emergency response applications, such as fire fighting, integrating a formal semantic domain model into an event-based decision support system, which supports reasoning on this model. The developed model consists of several generic ontologies describing concepts and properties which can be applied to diverse context-aware applications. These are extended with emergency response specific ontologies. Additionally, inference on the model performed by a reasoning engine is dynamically synchronized with the rest of the architectural components. This allows to automatically trigger events based on predefined conditions. The proposed ontology and developed reasoning methodology is validated on two scenarios, i.e. (i) the construction of an emergency response incident and corresponding scenario and (ii) monitoring of the state of a fire fighter during an emergency response.

The interaction between business processes and technical processes is getting more and more important. Throughout this paper, we present how concepts that are used in automation technology can be transferred into concepts that are suitable for use in business process modeling, too. An important aspect is the description of the procedures which have to be executed. In contrast to technical systems, humans as executing agents can, but do not have to follow predefined procedures due to their ability to use their knowledge to work independently in different situations. In a second part, the paper discusses the generation of business processes by project business processes on a meta model, and provides a reference model for a project business layer model.

This paper presents an evaluation of the SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm against two scenarios related to industrial automation. The first one is related to automated inspection systems. The second scenario describes a vision-based robot and vehicle navigation. The evaluation was performed in the sense of verifying if SIFT complies with the requirements of both scenarios, and identify how this is done.
