Tools implementing

Integral error criteria are ideally suited to simulation applications since only one additional program statement is required for the simulation. The optimal control parameters Kp, Tj and Xq can be then found at minimal ITAE. For this, it is useful to be able to apply the available optimisation tools implemented in such programs as MATLAB, SIMUSOLV and ESL. 

Emerson Electric, a manufacturer of power tools, implemented a Waste and Energy Management Program to identify opportunities for pollution prevention. An audit resulted in the following actions5 ... 

The search starts from the initial state qo. The set W is a data structure which stores symbolic states which are not yet explored. The functionfinal decides whether the given symbolic state is a target state in which the production is completed. The symbolic reachability graph is step-wise constructed by evaluating the successor relation Succ(q), which computes the successor symbolic states of q. The best solution is returned in cost. Existing tools implement numerous extensions of the standard algorithm to improve the efficiency ... 

Centuries after man had started to use iron oxides as colouring agents, he discovered how to smelt them. The first iron was produced between 4000 and 2000 BC. Since then, this product of iron oxides has been used in weapons, utensils, tools, implements and construction. The extensive English iron ore deposits contributed to the lead England acquired in the Industrial Revolution. 

Internal models have to be mapped onto services of distributed platforms. In order to keep the realization of tool extensions or of new tools independent of the specifics of the underljdng platforms, we find basic models on layer 4. They are used for tool implementation and they have to be transformed to a chosen and specific proprietary platform. 

Finally, the realization of an integrated design environment with new, integrated, and synergistic functionality on top of existing tools was specifically difficult, as we aimed at tight integration and as we also tried to apply reuse techniques for tool implementation. 

In Chap. 3, we have discussed novel tools for supporting chemical engineering design processes. The development process of these tools essentially contributes to the PPM, because any tool construction process has to use the application layer of the PPM model. It has to extend it on lower levels, to fulfill the needs of tool implementation. This is the main message of this chapter which is discussed in the following three sections. 

A) The case study represented in Fig. 6.1 by column (b) uses one and the studies of column (c) and (d) use another specification methodology and tool implementation machinery, namely NATURE (b), see Sects. 3.1 and 6.2, and Graph Transformation for (c) and (d), see Sects. 3.2, 6.3 and 3.4, 6.4. Hence, these conceptual realization models differ tremendously. In the Graph Transformation approach (columns (c) and (d)), we specify tool behavior by corresponding before/after states of a document s internal form. Accordingly the description is an abstract implementation. 

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a well known and widely used safety tool, implementing a deductive, top down approach. It starts with a top level hazard, which has to be known in advance and "works the way down" through all causal factors of this hazard, combined with Boolean Logic (mainly AND and OR gates). It can consider hardware, software and human errors and identifies both single and multiple points of failure. Both a quantitative and qualitative analysis is possible. 

A schematic overview of various structural characterization tools implementable at different stages of ASD-based product development is provided in Fig. 14.6.

Furthermore, Graph-Tool implements all sorts of algorithms, statistics and metrics over graphs, such as shortest distance, isomorphism, cormected components, and centrality measures. 

Nehme and Lundqvist [6] describe a framework combining software tools for application verification and hardware platforms for execution and real-time monitoring. The tool translates safety critical VHDL code into a formal representation in a form of finite state machine (FSM) model. Formal techniques can then be applied on FSM representation to verify properties such as liveness and deadlock and to validate that the timing constraints of the original system are met. Three aspects of the tool implementation are discussed transformation of source code into an intermediate representation, verification of real-time properties, and some tool-related implementation issues. 

We present a methodology and tool implementation that application-specifically reduces experimentation efforts, allows to freely trade the number of FI runs for result accuracy, and provides information on all possible fault locations. After training a set of Pareto-optimal heuristics, the experimenting user is enabled to specify a maximum number of FI experiments. A detailed evaluation with a set of benchmarks running on the eCos embedded OS, including MiBench s automotive benchmark category, emphasizes the applicability and effectiveness of our approach For example, when the user chooses to run only 1.5 % of all FI experiments, the average result accuracy is still 99.84 %. 

These tools, implemented at each new test correlation, made it possible us to obtain quickly good numerical responses as presented hereafter, to describe the major phenomenological behaviours and to improve the data set, with common intrinsic parameters or with identified differences. 

We can note that any controller that this implementation was applied to would have to support the Player/Stage-supplied virtual hardware and 2D environment, but otherwise the robot software is independent of our approach and the tool implementation is completely independent of the specific control software used. It could easily be applied to alternative algorithms or rival software designs. 

Integer. These use the built-in integer arithmetic operators + and - to show how the s)mthesis tool implements standard operators.
