In this paper, we design two types of Main Control Unit for Control Rod Control System and Control Element Drive Mechanism Control System, respectively, using a domestic Distributed Control System(DCS) developed to localize the instrumentation and control(I&C) system for nuclear power plant(NPP). There are many parts developed by domestic skills and being operated successfully in NPP, but the development of I&C system as an essential part has been slow in progress. We will show the great possibility of developing peculiar Korean I&C system by applying this domestic DCS to nuclear I&C system and confirming its successful operation.

In Korea, rotary implements are mainly utilized in the tillage operation. The attitude control system for rolling phenominon of tractors, which in caused due to uneven ground surfaces and sinkage of tractor wheels, is one of the most important control systems in agricultural tractors. The attitude control system of a rotary implement, attached on tractors, was designed and fabricated in this study. The control system was largely composed of four main units; a setting unit, a detection unit, a controller and a hydraulic unit. The implement was controlled by control signals from a computer proportional to controlled errors, on/off action of two directional solenoide valve and lift cylinder on the right lift rod. Response characteristic experiments for the control system fabricated in this study were carried out indoors and outdoors. The results of experiments showed the response characteristics sufficient to use as the attitude control system of rotary implements for agricultural tractors.

In this paper, an automatic lighting control system is developed using microprocessor. The developed system consists of a digital lighting control unit, an analog lighting control unit, and a lighting control simulator. In the developed system, ATMega128 is used as the main controller. The developed digital lighting control unit consists of eight modules and the developed analog lighting control unit consists of six modules respectively. Additional, the developed simulator consists of a digital and an analog lighting control simulation using graphic user interface. And so this developed system can be applied to the controller design of the interior and exterior lighting equipment.

In this paper, we propose the industrial controller with multi-function/multi-purpose in order to cope with a small-amount and large-items environments. The controller designed consists of Main Unit including all of information and Display Unit. The software in the Main Unit is composed of tasks and device drivers and each task is being processed in parallel by operating system supporting multitasking. The controller is structured in three levels to promptly address the control algorithm’s modification, MMI’s change, and so on. We can produce a controller without changing the first layer(hardware) and the second layer(firmware). We only modify the third layer(control algorithm) depending on control targets.

This paper represents the design of a real-time image preprocessing system. The preprocessing system performs hardware-wise mask operations and thresholding operations at the speed of camera output single rate. The preprocessing system consists of the preprocessing board and the main processing board. The preprocessing board includes preprocessing unit that includes a $5\times5$ mask processor and LUT, and can perform mask and threshold operations in real-time. To achieve high-resolution image input data($20485\timesn$), the preprocessing board has a linescan camera interface. The main processing board includes the image processor unit and main processor unit. The image processor unit is equipped with TI's TMS320C32 DSP and can perform image processing algorithms at high speed. The main processor unit controls the operation of total system. The proposed system is faster than the conventional CPU based system.

The total control system of main engine and transmission will be designed specially for use in drive systems in rail vehicles. The domestic diesel train was controlled by the relay control circuit. But the exportation to Europe and the Middle East was controlled by total control system. When the driver operates the train, the operating signals are sent to Voith Controller. The VTIC controls the main engine and transmission. The system communicates with TMS, and the data are displayed by TMS when the function switch at the display unit is operated. The this driving control system which is applied to reduce the maintenace load and cost at Turkey diesel multiple unit train is proposed.

The fuel charge is getting higher in navigation cost. Therefore, shipowners try to find the method for reducing oil consumption. ESS(Energy Saving System) is one of he method. ESS is the system consisted with two inverters, ESS control unit and monitoring system. Two inverters control two main sea water cooling pumps. In the ESS control Unit, the control algorithm finds optimized point to decrease a power consumption of main sea water cooling pumps. Monitoring system observes ESS not to work improperly. ESS is experimented in the laboratory with real condition and analyzed in every view. After experiment, the result of the experiment shows that the control algorithm works correctly and safely. ESS has a plan to be operated in the ship soon. In that case, additional devices are needed to connect ESS with cooling system of the vessel. So the development of addition device is needed and being studied.

In this paper, we propose Total RMS(Radiation Monitoring System) for nuclear and nuclear medicine. The proposed system can expand and control Stack Monitor, Area Monitor, and Water(Liquid) Monitor into one system, and can monitor the signals measured by each radiation detector in an integrated manner. The proposed system consists of a sensor module that detects the radiation, a display unit that displays the radiation dose near the radiation detection location, an alarm unit that reports the alarm when the detected radiation dose reaches the danger level, A Main Hub for collecting and storing the contents to the remote monitoring system, and an RMS Monitoring Unit for clearly displaying the measured radiation dose at the remote site. In order to evaluate the performance of Total RMS for the proposed nuclear and nuclear medicine field, it is confirmed that the measurement uncertainty is less than 8.5% and it operates normally within ${\pm}15%$ of the international standard.

This paper introduces a design and implementation of a digital control unit for an Oxygenaire Servo Baby Incubator. The control unit is designed and implemented according to international standards. The control unit is based on an AVR Atmel microcontroller unit. It is built for monitoring and control and displays the three main temperature values: set point temperature, baby skin temperature and air temperature. User friendly software is implemented. The implemented control unit was tested in the laboratory as well as in the field. The control unit is sensitive to change of $0.1^{\circ}C$. At startup, based on a unique control strategy, the incubator reaches its steady state in about 14 minutes. The system schematic diagrams are shown in the paper. Also, programs flow charts are presented. The control unit was designed and implemented based on a contract between the Electronics Research Institute (ERI) and ENGIMED Company. The authors would like to thank ERI and ENGIMED for introducing all required finance and shoring to complete this work.

In order to assess the reliability of the electronics control unit for vehicles, accelerated life test model and procedure are developed. By using this method, failure mechanism and life distribution are analyzed. The main results are as follows : i) the main failure mechanism is degradation failure that is, junction destruction of a semiconductor resin by high temperature. ii) the life distribution of the electronics control unit for vehicles is fitted well to Weibull life distribution and the accelerated life model of that is fitted well to Arrhenius model. iii) at the result of the life distribution, accelerated life test method is developed, and test time for life assessment will be shortened by 5,000 hours by this test method.
