▼ Research into the effect of
automation on human multitasking performance is primarily focused on Decision
Automation (a machine suggesting a certain course of action for a human operator to take) and Action
Automation (a machine carrying out a certain course of action on behalf of the human operator) while Acquisition
Automation (a machine provides assistance which helps a human operator in sensing information) and Analysis
Automation (a machine provides information predicting the future state of a system) have been acknowledged as types of
automation but largely ignored. The inclusion of the former in systems which require human multitasking is beneficial, while the effects of the latter are unclear. In order to determine said effects a study was conducted using a low fidelity simulation of a multitasking system with No
Automation, Acquisition
Automation, and Analysis
Automation states, as well as failure states for those systems with
automation included. Results show no statistically significant difference in performance between systems with the
automation enabled versus those with the
automation in a failed state, nor was there any statistically significant difference between the performance of groups with no
automation present and those with
automation present (in both active and failed states).

▼ The position control system one of the interesting term in control system
engineering. Nowadays, several control system algorithm have been applied in
that application. PID controller is a well known controller and widely used in
feedback control in industrial processes. In position control system, PID
controller sometimes cannot accurate for this application because of nonlinear
properties. Therefore in this research, the fuzzy logic controller is proposed to
overcome the problem of PID controller. Fuzzy logic controller has ability to
control the nonlinear system because of the algorithm is concentrate by emulating
the expert and implemented in language. Based on the experimental result, the
fuzzy logic controller designed able to improve the performance of the position
control system compared to the PID controller in term of rise time (Tr) is 50%,
settling time (Ts) is 80% and percentage overshoot (%OS) is 98% can be reduced.

▼ The objective of the project is to simulate the real time Radar detection and tracking operations using MATLAB software. Radar system use modulated waveforms and directive antennas to transmit electromagnetic energy into a specific volume in space to search for targets. Objects (targets) within a search volume will reflect portions of this energy (radar returns or echoes) back to the radar. These echoes are then processed by radar receiver to extract target information such as range. Velocity, angular position, and other target identifying characteristics. The project mainly concentrates on the radar displays and different radar types to collect the information of the flying objects, such as the range, speed, distance, angles. The display types are A-scope, B-scope, C-scope, PPI, and RHI, which are used in modern radars. While others are either obsolete or are found only in very specialized applications. Signals displayed on these scopes can be raw video, synthetic video (detected video) or computer-generated symbols. The radar types consider in the project are CWT (Continuous Wave Transmission), Pulse, Doppler, and MTI (Moving Target Indicator). For each display, all the values related to the object are calculated in different patterns and graphs for the corresponding formulated values and angles.

▼ Drilling
automation initially gained acceptance in the Oil & Gas industry as a solution to increase rigsite safety. While safety-related drilling
automation has been implemented, many companies are beginning to recognize that drilling
automation o?ers possibilities of performance enhancement also. Decision making in manual oil ?eld operations is dependent on how quickly the driller can recognize the problem, how knowledgeable the driller is regarding the problem and how quickly he/she can ?nd a solution for the problem. There is also a distinct lag in interpreting data and then taking corrective action. Such ine?ciences are eliminated by adopting automated systems in place of human labor. In this work, the current state of
automation in drilling engineering ?eld was studied and barriers to
automation were identi?ed.
Mathematical models developed for automated drilling operations are to be simulated before testing them on a physical system. For this purpose, a simulation environment or a Drilling Simulator has been developed in LabVIEW. Automatic Managed Pressure Drilling using Constant Bottom-Hole Pressure technique was modeled using a PID controller and simulated on the Drilling Simulator. The simulator is open to design modi?cations. A model rig with fully automatic capabilities has been designed and constructed with design limitations on drilling parameters. To improve the performance, an optimization algorithm is proposed which makes use of Mechanical Speci?c Energy to maximize Rate of Penetration. The Drilling Simulator and the model rig can be used in conjunction to experiment with di?erent models and control methodologies.

▼ Syftet med examensarbetet var att projektera en fysisk robotcell till Haldex i Landskrona, tillverkare av bromshävarmar, då det finns ett behov hos dem att effektivisera sin produktion för att kunna bibehålla konkurrenskraften och tillverkningen i Sverige. Bromshävarmen är en mogen produkt vilket medför att det inte skulle bli lönsamt att omforma den utan istället fokusera på tillverkningen. Därför vore lösningen att automatisera den del av monteringslinan som inte tillför något värde till slutprodukten. Robotcellen kommer att placeras på bromshävarmarnas monteringslina som en automatiserad station vilken ska utföra kvalitetskontroll av bromshävarmarna. Examensarbetet ingår i ett pågående forskningsprojekt på Mälardalens högskola inom Lean Automation, med Robotdalen och Haldex. Lean Automation handlar om att vid användandet av Lean Produktion utgå från ett automationsperspektiv.Slutprodukten av examensarbetet skulle innefatta projektering av en robotcell. Den skulle bestå av konceptuell design av robotcell samt konstruktion av robotstativ och gripfingrar. Utifrån den slutliga cell-layouten skulle en testcell på Mälardalens högskola tas fram vilken skulle motsvara den cell som kommer att implementeras på Haldex i Landskrona. Arbetet skulle även innefatta framtagning av ritning till robotstativ med tillhörande hållfasthetsberäkningar och gripfingrar till given chuck. Dessa skulle tas fram och levereras till Haldex.Genom konceptgenerering arbetades cell-layouten fram. Detta utfördes genom att först besöka fabriken för att samla information, därefter togs skisser fram och arbetet med att skapa visualiseringar i 3DCreate påbörjades. Detta gav alla involverade en gemensam bild av koncepten. De koncept som inte blev godkända av uppdragsgivaren ratades och arbetet med kvarvarande koncept fortsatte. Tillslut togs ett koncept fram som gemensamt med Haldex bedömdes att bli den slutliga cell-layouten. Till den nya robotcellen på Haldex behövdes ett stativ till roboten att stå på, som placerade den på en lämplig arbetsnivå i cellen, vilket var i höjd med inbanan på 1220 mm eftersom roboten hade bäst räckvidd inom detta arbetsområde. Stativet konstruerades i SolidWorks där även beräkningar i SolidWorks simulation genomfördes, för att påvisa att stativet skulle klara av tilltänkta externa laster. Efter godkända beräkningar skickades ritningar till Haldex för tillverkning. Då arbetet på stationen i nuläget sker manuellt, fanns inga gripfingrar som är lämpade för den uppgiften som roboten ska genomföra. Därför skulle nya tas fram, lämpade för uppgiften. Gripfingrarna togs fram genom att utgå från befintliga gripfingrar som följde med den chuck Haldex skickade till MDH. Dessa granskades och de nya gripfingrarna blev en variant av de gamla men de kunde nu greppa bromshävarmen. Gripfingrarna konstruerades i SolidWorks och frästes fram i en CNC-maskin på MDH. De seghärdades för ökad hållfasthet innan de skickades till Haldex.Rekommendationerna till Haldex var att testa gripfingrarna då det inte gjordes i samband med framställningen.…

▼ Due to the competitive nature of the global economy, organisations are continuously seeking ways of cutting costs and increasing efficiency to gain a competitive advantage. Field service organisations that offer after sales support seek to gain a competitive advantage through downtime minimisation. Downtime is the time between service requests made by a customer or triggered by equipment failure and the completion of the service to rectify the problem by the field service team. Researchers have identified downtime as one of the key performance indicators for field service organisations. The lack of real-time access to information and inaccuracy of information are factors which contribute to the poor management of downtime. Various technology advancements have been adopted to address some of the challenges faced by field service organisations through automation. The emergence of an Internet of Things (IoT), has brought new enhancement possibilities to various industries, for instance, the manufacturing industry. The main research question that this study aims to address is “How can an Internet of Things be used to optimise field service automation?” The main research objective was to develop and evaluate a model for the optimisation of field services using an IoT’s features and technologies. The model aims at addressing challenges associated with the inaccuracy or/and lack of real-time access to information during downtime. The model developed is the theoretical artefact of the research methodology used in this study which is the Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM). The DSRM activities were adopted to fulfil the research objectives of this research. A literature review in the field services domain was conducted to establish the problems faced by field service organisations. Several interviews were held to verify the problems of FSM identified in literature and some potential solutions. During the design and development activity of the DSRM methodology, an IoT model for FSA was designed. The model consists of:The Four Layered Architecture; The Three Phase Data Flow Process; and Definition and descriptions of IoT-based elements and functions. The model was then used to drive the design, development, and evaluation of “proof of concept” prototype, the KapCha prototype. KapCha enables the optimisation of FSA using IoT techniques and features. The implementation of a sub-component of the KapCha system, in fulfilment of the research. The implementation of KapCha was applied to the context of a smart lighting environment in the case study. A two-phase evaluation was conducted to review both the theoretical model and the KapCha prototype. The model and KapCha prototype were evaluated using the Technical and Risk efficacy evaluation strategy from the Framework for Evaluation of Design Science (FEDS). The Technical Risk and Efficacy strategy made use of formative, artificial-summative and summative-naturalistic methods of evaluation. An artificial-summative evaluation was used to evaluate the design of the model.…

▼ Automation for the oil and gas industry is driven by the need to improve efficiency, productivity, consistency, and personnel safety, while reducing cost. Fully automated systems alleviate the physical toll on human operators and allow them to focus on monitoring unsafe well events and machinery maintenance. Complex systems like drilling rigs and snubbing units require supervisory controllers that can safely coordinate equipment and processes, overcome interoperability challenges and allow for functional scalability without sacrificing safety, security, and consistency of operations. The primary objective of this report is to explore the feasibility of developing a modular supervisory controller architecture which addresses these concerns by modifying and extending existing architectures. Such modifications include the use of non-homogeneous models in sub-system modules, including discrete event models for control and physics-based models for collision avoidance, addition of a system compilation module (Meta Module) to identify simple design errors, and implementation of an algorithm for synthesis of modules and filters to replace missing sub-systems. This report discusses the implementation results of the modular supervisory control architecture (modMFSM) on a simplified two-machine drilling system for assessment of design practices. Simulations for three test cases were executed to assess the ability of the controller to correctly perform error-free operations, detect and react to possible collisions, and adapt to missing equipment. The report then discusses the possibilities of extending the modMFSM architecture to control large complex systems such as drilling rigs, using snubbing operations as an example.

▼ Automation is frequently used in everyday life. However,
automation can err and thereby complicate human-
automation interactions. Current human-
automation literature has investigated cues (e.g., frequency) people use to know that an
automation issue has occurred (e.g., Itoh, Abe, & Tanaka, 1999) but has lacked investigation into the interpretation people have of the issues. Additionally, there is a need to understand how people respond to
automation issues when the constraints of an experimental setting are lifted and response options can range beyond continuing to use the
automation or ceasing use of the
automation (e.g., Dzindolet, Peterson, Pomranky, Pierce, & Beck, 2003). The present study utilized two different interview methods to qualitatively examine the cues people used to interpret an
automation issue, their interpretation of the issue, the reasons they use in deciding how to respond, and the response strategies they have for an
automation issue.
Results demonstrate the generalizability of cues currently in the human-
automation literature and reveal previously undocumented cues (e.g., measurement comparison). Further, users do not always interpret issues causally, and may instead interpret issues generally or may understand where the issue occurred but not why (i.e., specifically). The cues people use to understand
automation issues differ on if they interpreted an issue generally, specifically, or causally. Results also documented the additional response strategies of (1) gather information or seek help to get the issue fixed, (2) change or monitor the user’s behavior in the situation, and (3) try to fix it on my own. The reasons people gave for their responses included various types of knowledge, the importance of the issue for their purpose of use, the ease with which the response could be implemented, the availability of alternative actions, the frequency and size of the error, and the range of situations within which the issue occurred. These reasons people use in selecting a response strategy differ depending on the strategy they select.
Conceptual models of issue interpretation and response selection are presented to document the different relationships between cues to errors and issue interpretation, and between reasons and responses. To help with troubleshooting, designers should incorporate cues to errors to help promote the necessary understanding by the user and incorporates reasons for responses to help promote the necessary actions of the user.

▼ This thesis analyses the background of the kinematics and control of an articulated robotic arm in order to control it’s motor controllers with a custom controller using PLC programming. The goal was to create a MATLAB simulation of a manipulator and then establish a working configuration. This would then later be used by the division of Signals and Systems at LTU to educate students in PLC programming for autonomous setups with the robotic manipulator. The thesis was successful following the schedule established at the beginning and most of the objectives were accomplished. The results were a functioning control framework of Siemens PLC that could control the manipulators motor controllers to preform pickand place tasks in conjunction with a conveyor belt.

▼ This thesis details the applications of a new method of agent-based structure synthesis. The goal of this research is to create structures that meet a structural goal within a simulated physics environment. The method proposed works as an iterative process of changing the structure, evaluating the new structure and using this evaluation to inform the next change to the structure. Five example problems are used to elaborate the methods proposed in this research. Two are used to other compare this agent-based approach to other optimization methods and the remaining three show the ability of this method to develop emergent solutions.

▼ The manufacturing industry is constantly looking for ways to reduce production costs and at the same time to increase productivity.
Automation of common manufacturing operations is one of these methods. By automating common manufacturing operations; various machines, robots, control systems and information technologies are used to reduce the overall human input requirement (mental and physical). Recent advances in technology have made it possible to now also automate (or facilitate) the maintenance requirement of these machines and tools. Modern tools and machines, which can estimate when it will fail or when failure is imminent have obvious advantages for predictive maintenance purposes. Another function of this technology is to determine how efficiently a tool or machine operates, or what the quality of the produced goods is. Predictive maintenance can decrease manufacturing plant or machine down times – which have a positive effect on cost-savings – has gained considerable importance over the last two decades

▼ The increasing demand for high-density soil data, and the high labor cost associated with manual methods, have encouraged the development of autonomous alternatives. In this study, a mobile robot named ‘AgTracker’ was developed as a platform for an autonomous soil sampling machine. The robot, equipped with a low-accuracy GPS, a LIDAR scanner, an electronic compass visited human-defined locations through its auto-navigation system. This system also had a user-friendly interface, which enabled operators to set waypoints by clicking on Google Maps®. Locations could also be remotely monitored in real time through this interface. An Xbee wireless network was built to make the remote waypoints set up and monitoring possible.
The robot was tested on campus of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It could visit waypoints one by one successfully in most cases. The robot’s localization errors, which were the distances between its true visited locations and set waypoints, were evaluated. An average error within 0.2 m was achieved.

Electrical Engineering, Wright State University, 2007. Autonomous
Home or Office Coffee Maker Using Intelligent Control Methodology
Home coffee machines have improved over time with the addition of
features such as self-activating timers and crude temperature
controlled heating elements. However, home coffee brewer
development has stagnated and has yet to achieve full
automation
status. Present coffee machines leave the user burdened with the
mundane and messy task of preparing the coffee maker every time.
Also, should the user decide to prepare less than an entire pot,
he/she must estimate the correct amount of water and coffee to add.
This can lead to a weak or strong brew, giving undesirable results.
In order to make another pot, the user is then forced to clean the
used coffee grounds and remove any unused coffee. The objective of
this thesis is to design and construct a functional, fully
automated coffee maker. The coffee maker, with its need for user
input, varying grounds and water volume necessity, and sequential
method of operation, is a prime candidate for fuzzy control
implementation. The main focus of this project is a controller,
which is implemented on a standard 486 computer running Linux Red
Hat 7. The system is included in this project, but only as a means
to test the functionality and efficiency of the controller. User
input includes the amount of coffee desired, the strength of that
coffee, and the ratio of regular to decaffeinated. These input
variables can be effectively and easily defined by fuzzy membership
functions. Also, when the coffee maker is not making coffee, the
processor monitors water temperature for the next time it is needed
and performs any necessary cleaning. Results demonstrate that the
water and coffee temperatures can be kept within a tolerance of
three degrees Fahrenheit. The open-loop coffee-dispensing
controller is validated by expert evaluation since taste is the
deciding factor. The efficiency of the water controller is
determined by the accuracy of the volume of water obtained.
Overshoot and steady-state-error are kept within strict tolerances
for this specific application.

▼ Many security systems employing different methods have been proposed to protect buried oil pipelines transporting petroleum products from the well head via the refinery to: depots and other receiving stations. Currently there is a security gap in the monitoring of these buried pipelines in real time and in keeping them protected from third party interference. This thesis addresses the problem of monitoring these systems by developing an automated image analysis system with the aid of a low-cost multisensory Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for monitoring of buried pipeline right-of-way (ROW). The method used in this research is based on the identification of threat objects of interest from the video frame sequences of the pipeline right-of-way acquired by the UAV. This is achieved by training the system to recognise objects of interest using trained correlation filters. To determine the geographical location of detected objects, the Video frame sequences captured by the UAV platform were ortho-rectified to form ortho-images which were then mosaicked to form a seamless Digital Surface Model (DSM) covering the test area using a photogrammetry model. The DSM formed from the mosaicking of ortho-images is then emerged with a digital globe for geo-referencing of detected objects. Experiments were carried out on a test field located in United Kingdom and Nigeria, where video and telemetry data were collected, then processed using the techniques created in this research. The results demonstrated that the developed correlation filter was able to detect objects of interest despite the distortions that come with the object image, due to the fact that the expected distortion was compensated for using the training images. When compared with the 6 control points in the digital globe the accuracy of the two-dimension DSM gave a misalignment error of between 2 and 3 metres.

▼ Automation has played a big role in the development of the industry in the last century. Despite the desire to automate the tedious and repetitive work in greenhouses by robots, the
automation level in the horticulture is still far from desired. However, the last decade shows a lot of progress in the horticulture
automation and more is expected due to the increasing need for automated processes in this area. Priva B.V. started the Tomation project in 2002 to automate the task of cutting off the leaves of tomato plants. Cutting off the leaves of tomato plants is one of the crop handling tasks done on a regular basis to ensure optimal growth and ripening of the tomatoes.
This report presents research concerning the Tomation Project of Priva B.V., aimed at solving the problem of autonomous movement of the leaf-cutting robot in the greenhouse. The robot has to move autonomously in the path and periodically change from path to path. The focus in this report is on the path-to-path movement in the greenhouse. This is a movement where the vehicle rides off the rail, moves to the next path and finally drives back on the rail again to continue with the leaf cutting process. The robot platform is a vehicle equipped with omni-directional mecanum wheels and powered by stepper motors from Nanotec®. These mecanum wheels are omnidirectional wheels and are able to move the vehicle in a lateral direction. The vehicle will move with mecanum wheels on the concrete path and with flanged wheels on the rail.
The vehicle with the mecanum wheels encountered difficulties driving sideways at a critical weight on the platform. Undesired movements occur at these weights, because the stepper motor is not performing all the steps. The scope of the project includes the autonomous path-to-path movement of the robot. The vision system for navigational purposes is not installed yet on the platform. Hence, the inputs from the system are entered manually in this project. It has to be taken into account that the vision system can only look at the front. The path-to-path movement should meet requirements on accuracy, time, speed and the payload of the vehicle. Furthermore, the vehicle has to be able to cope with cracks and obstructions on the road during the movement. Finally, it has to deal with rails that are shifted, because they are not fixed properly on the concrete path. Using the positional feedback of the encoders of the available stepper motor and inputs of a vision system a proper control system is required.
To get a good starting point to develop the autonomous movement of the platform, it was important to have a good understanding of the stepper motor and a clear view on the possibilities and modes of use of the motor. The working principle of the stepper motor is explained by describing the common step modes: the full step, the half step and the micro step mode. The difference between the stepper motor and a servo motor is explained. Based on the differences between these motors, the choice on the stepper motor has been reasoned. The…

▼ The concept of organisational culture and its role and effect on organisational performance gained a lot of popularity in the 1980s and has remained a subject matter of great interest. Scholars and organisations are interested in organisational culture for many reasons, most commonly, how it affects employee commitment, satisfaction on the job, retention, and performance. Organisational culture has a lot of implications for strategy development, implementation, and organisational performance. It is therefore little wonder that managers are also seeking to understand more and more what organisational culture is and ways to leverage it for performance.
This study’s objectives were to understand the organisational culture of Process and Plant Automation Limited, the organisation’s view of performance and the perception of the way organisational culture and performance relate to one another.
This study employed a mixed method approach using structured questionnaires and structured interviews to understand the culture of PPA LTD premised on four cultural elements namely; adaptability, involvement, mission and consistency. Organisational performance based on financial and non -financial measures of performance and the effect organisational culture has on performance are also explored.
The study found that the culture of the organisation is one of high involvement and mission. The study also found organisational culture to related positively with organisational performance and organisational performance to be a combination of both financial and non-financial indicators.

▼ Electrospark Deposition (ESD) is a specialized micro-bonding process which is used to coat a base material, known as the substrate, with a stronger, tougher, and more durable top layer, the electrode. Short durations of electrical pulses ranging from milliseconds to microseconds are used to deposit the electrode onto the substrate. This process can be used to repair damaged parts, tools or equipment, or to improve and extend tool and equipment life.
The objective of this study is to develop a better understanding of the TiCp/Ni Metal Matrix Compound (MMC) coating process on RSW electrodes for the purpose of automation. Key aspects of the process are identified to aid in developing a method and approach for process automation.
In order to test the effects of automating this ESD process three automation solutions were considered and tested. The first was a Manual-Automated Hybrid setup which involved the use of a manual vibrating TiCp/Ni electrode applicator which was mounted on a CNC lathe. The second solution was the novel Actively Controlled Rotating and Reciprocating mechanism which replaced the vibration of the manual applicator with an actively controlled reciprocating mechanism and added rotational control of the TiCp/Ni electrode. The third solution was the novel Actively Controlled Rotating and Vibrating mechanism which used the rotational portion of the Actively Controlled Rotating and Reciprocating mechanism but replaced the reciprocating mechanism with a vibrational one.
Observations of initial tests lead to an understanding of how the TiCp/Ni electrode wears during the process while using a manual applicator as opposed one of the novel mechanisms and helped to solidify a method to ensure even wearing of the TiCp/Ni electrode for automation.
Further testing of the Actively Controlled Rotating and Reciprocating mechanism provided information about the electrical characteristics of the process and the effects of these results on the process. These test results were used to develop a constraint on the contact duration between the TiCp/Ni electrode and the RSW Copper electrode.
Force measurements of the manual operators at Huys Industries Ltd, the Actively Controlled Rotating and Reciprocating mechanism, and the Actively Controlled Rotating and Vibrating mechanism were used to identify differences in the process results based on the mechanism used. With the use of this data an upper limit for the contact force for this process was specified in order to ensure damage free coatings.
The Actively Controlled Rotating and Vibrating mechanism was used to specify a minimum travel speed for the TiCp/Ni electrode along with a minimum number of passes required to ensure gapless coatings.
The Actively Controlled Rotating and Vibrating mechanism produced relatively decent coatings of TiCp/Ni on the RSW Copper electrodes and serves as a proof of concept and basis for automation of this process.

▼ Functional cardiovascular assessment is important in the study of fetal pathology, and is becom- ing an increasingly popular tool in clinical practice. The myocardial performance index (MPI) is one particularly important index for evaluating global myocardial function, as it combines assessment of both systolic and diastolic function and has been shown to be a sensitive indicator of cardiac dysfunction. Moreover, the MPI can be obtained non-invasively, and it is indepen- dent of ventricular geometry and heart rate. However, the current method for MPI calculation, which is obtained by manually annotating the time intervals required for the MPI calculation, can be time-consuming and demonstrates poor inter-operator repeatability; this is evidenced by a broad variation in normal ranges of MPI values reported in the literature. Therefore, there is motivation to develop an automated method for MPI calculation, which o↵ers a convenient and consistent way to estimate the MPI, hence making fetal cardiac functional evaluation based on the MPI easier and more reliable. In this thesis, automated fetal MPI calculation algorithms for both left and right ventricles have been developed by investigating manual measurement as well as exploring morphological characteristics of ultrasound images. The performance of these algorithms has been validated, demonstrating excellent agreement with aggregated manual an- notation performed by experts. These algorithms have also been deployed in clinical studies evaluating fetal MPI beat-to-beat variation, tissue Doppler-derived MPI, and developing normal MPI reference ranges.

▼ Robotic applications in aerospace manufacturing and aircraft assembly today are limited. This is because most of the aircraft parts are relatively small or have complex shapes that make tasks like robotic drilling and riveting more challenging. These challenges include tool accessibility, path planning, and motion planning.
In this thesis, a process methodology was developed to overcome the tool accessibility challenges facing robotic drilling and riveting for aircraft parts. The tool accessibility was analyzed based on the Global Accessibility Area and the Global Accessibility Volume to determine the accessible boundaries for parts with zero, one and two surfaces curvatures. The path planning was optimized based on the shortest distance, least number of steps, and minimal tool orientation change. The motion planning was optimized based on the s-curve using the robot’s maximum velocity and acceleration for minimum cycle time and maximum production rate. A software application was developed to simulate the tasks.

▼ Modern trends in customer demand have resulted in the development of a class of
manufacturing system known as Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMS).
Reconfigurable systems are designed around the idea that they must be able to be
reconfigured in both their production capacity as well as in the machining processes they
perform. A subset of the RMS paradigm is a group of machines called Modular
Reconfigurable Machines (MRMs). Modular machines are built up from different hardware
modules. They offer the user the possibility of only purchasing the required tooling for the
specific need at the time. As reconfigurable machines are able to offer flexibility in
machining functions, their ability to have easy access to a variety of machine tools would
greatly influence their effectiveness and production capacity. This project presents a
machine tooling system that would provide MRMs with an efficient way to change tools.
A major requirement of the unit was that it should automatically calibrate itself in terms
of its position relative to the machine it was servicing. In order for the unit to realize this
requirement, it needed a method that would provide it with real-time 3D tracking of the
spindle with which it was interacting. Commercially available systems that offer this
facility are very costly. A popular gaming controller, the Nintendo Wii remote, was used to
provide the tool-changing unit with a very economical real-time 3D tracking capability.
This dissertation details the design, implementation and testing of the positioning system
for the tool-changing unit.

▼ Pelbagai usaha dirancang dan dilaksanakan untuk memanfaatkan sains, teknologi dan
inovasi termasuklah pengenalan kepada program inkubator yang bertindak untuk
membimbing usahawan yang berasaskan teknologi. Walaubagaimanapun, PKS yang
berasaskan teknologi ini didapati menghadapi kesukaran dalam mencapai inovasi
yang cemerlang. Kajian lepas mendapati kepimpinan merupakan satu daripada tiga
faktor utama yang memastikan keberkesanan inovasi. Justeru itu, kajian ini
djalankan untuk mengenalpasti gaya kepimpinan yang diamalkan di dalam PKS
yang berasaskan teknologi. Di samping itu, kajian ini juga turut melihat pengaruh ciri
profil demografi pemimpin terhadap gaya kepirnpinan yang diamalkan. Bag
mencapai objektif kajian, kaedah kajian tinjauan diaplikasikan dengan
menggunakandua set borang soal seliQk. Set yang pertama t e r b daripada enam
item yang berkaitan dengan ciri profil demogr&i, manakala set yang kedua
merupakan borang soal selidik MLQ-5X yang dibangunkan oleh Bass dan Avolio.
Data-data yang diperolehi dianalisis dengan menggunakan perisian Statistical
Package for Sociul Science yang melibatkan analisis statistik desknptif dan analisis
statistik iderensi Hasil analisis yang dijalankan mendapati bahawa gaya kepimpinan
transfomasional rnerupakan gaya kepimpinan yang seringkali kamalkan
olehusahawan PKS yang berasaskan teknologi. Gaya kephnpinan yang diamrtlkan ini
juga didapati mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan umw, pengalaman dan
juga tempoh perkhidmatan pernimpin di dalam syarikat. Memandangkan kajian yang
melibatkan kepirnpinan di dalam PKS yang berasaskan teknologi adalah dalam
kuantiti yang sedikit dan lebih tertumpu kepada negara-negara luar, kajian ini akan
dapat menyumbangkan sedikit pengetahuan yang boleh dimanfaatkan di dalam
bidang berkaitan daripada perspektif situasi di Malaysia. Selain itu, kajian ini
dijalankan dengan rnengambil lura penilaian para pekerja terhadap para pemimpin
berbanding perspektif pernimpin itu sendiri. Ini kerana, perspektif daripada para
pekerja dapat mernberikan gambaran yang lebih komprehensif terhadap pemimpin
berbanding analisis daripada perspekhf pemimpin itu sendiri.

▼ Knowledge transfer is the process whereby the reciever unit identifies and learns
specific knowledge resides in the source unit, and applies the knowledge in another
context. This study explores the impact of client, vendor and Transactive Memory
System (TMS) in facilitating knowledge transfer between IT outsourcing project
teams. Recent research in information system has highlighted the importance of
transactive memory in improving the knowledge process's ability and subsequently
team performance. A Transactive Memory System is a group-level concept, referring
to the aspect of the knowledge that a person has about what another person knows.
However, there is limited research reported on the contribution of TMS for knowledge
transfer in IT outsourcing particularly among Malaysian Public Agencies. To address
this gap, the ultimate aim of this research is to contribute towards a viable knowledge
transfer model and suggest the implementation guidelines for TMS to facilitate the
knowledge transfer process. To achieve this purpose, the study incorporates three
underlying theories; knowledge-based view, organisational learning theory and social
exchange theory for the ideation of concepts. In response to the research aim, six
research objectives with 16 hypotheses have been outlined to be tested. The data were
collected via a cross-sectional self administered survey, which yielded 195 usable
questionnaires from IT personnel at three e-government lead agencies located in
Putrajaya and Cyberjaya. The measurement opted was based on subjective perception
instead of objective measures as the respondents are doubt to sufficiently quantify the
volume of transferred knowledge. This study employed various types of multivariate
analysis and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) to
analyse the collected data. The result of the goodness of fit index satisfies the
recommended value while 12 hypotheses were suppgrted. Hence, the developed
model is considered acceptable. The validation results revealed that the entire model
fit is appropriate and indicated the stability of theory used in building a model.
Additionally, the findings showed that knowledge transfer in IT outsourcing is
significantly affected by three sets of factors; the client factor, vendor factor and TMS
factor. Specifically, the results depicted that credibility and disseminative capacity of
the vendor's are crucial in affecting knowledge transfer in IT outsourcing. The
research confirmed that TMS routines do exist among project members with the
referral and allocation routines yielding the most significant routines that affect
knowledge transfer. In addition, the research proved that knowledge transfer has a
significant effect towards IT outsourcing project success. The present research will
provide some usehl insights not only for IT project managers to better manage the
transferred knowledge; however, to effectively develop the IT outsourcing team's
TMS as the more value this TMS has to prevent knowledge or skill loss. Additionally,

▼ In recent years there have been logarithmic upsurges of test demands placed on medical laboratories. Currently, there is a pre-existent and progressive shortage of medical technologists. The widening gap has in part been closed by automation. Automation is being heavily utilized to an increasing degree in most areas of the laboratory with enhanced accuracy and precision, decreased professional effort and significantly decreased cost to the patient as coincidental returns. Through automation mass screening is being performed and maximum quality control can be exercised. The urinalysis may be the last major hiatus still remaining. Inasmuch as the clinical laboratory scientist is dedicated to providing maximum excellence in patient care and because present methodologists (spot testing) in the area of urinalysis provide suboptimal clinical information, a study was undertaken to devise methodologies and essential equipment to improve laboratory diagnosis in the area. The routine urinalysis consisting of test for pH, specific gravity, protein, sugar, hemoglobin and ketones was studied. Two additional tests, creatinine and bilirubin, were also incorporated. Color determination was investigated colorimetrically and pH was studied with an electrometer. Methods utilizing micro-quantities of specimen were devised and adapted to two systems. One system was a urine analyzer designed and built especially for the study. The second system was fabricated from existing laboratory apparatus. The feasibility of automating urinalysis was established for both systems. Using healthy volunteers, the normal ranges and other pertinent data were established for each method. Pathologic specimens were included in the study. Comparison with existing spot test proved the value of the automated quantitative approach. Several innovations resulted from this study. The use of a double beam colorimeter eliminated possible background errors introduced by reagents or intrinsic pigments in the specimens. A new test for glucose was designed using a previously unreported coenzyme analog which permitted linear colorimetric readings up to 10000mg/100 ml without pretreatment of the specimen. Creatinine was determined for the first time on undiluted urine with a linear range up to 375 mg/ 100 ml. A novel approach for analyzing bilirubin was developed. A relatively “noise free” turbidimetric protein test system was adapted to continuous flow automation. Hemoglobin was estimated using O-dianisidine, with a degree of sensitivity five times greater than preciously attainable. An electronic system was proposed and fabricated which enabled three orders of signal magnitude to be compressed into one scale sweep. In summary, the automation of the urinalysis was achieved. In summary, the automation of the urinalysis was achieved. The quantitative automated approach appears technically and clinically superior to the qualitative manual method.

▼ In the construction industry, one of the aspects that affect the productivity
of the construction crew is the availability of tools and supplies. Unavailability of
tools and supplies results in a delay of the project, which in turn increases the
cost of the project. If any such delays on job sites could be reduced, it would
help the construction industry in reduction of time and cost losses. The
construction industry is in need of a technology that would improve the presentday
tool management system (TMS) to reduce the construction costs from
delays in projects.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology offers the possibility
that tools and supplies, tagged with RFID devices, could be tracked down
automatically. Although the potential of RFID is real, it does have limitations
like any other technology. Without understanding and working with the
limitations of RFID, this technology may disappoint many before its true and
significant capabilities are realized. Before the technology is executed fullfledged,
it needs to be tested for reliability on construction sites in particular.
Researchers, from many parts of the world, have performed tests to understand the reliability of the RFID technology considering variables like metal
interferences, reading range, multiple tag identification, etc. But these tests
conducted could not discuss all the factors that may affect the reliability of the
technology.
This paper identifies other factors that might affect the reliability of RFID
technology and tests are conducted to understand the influence of these factors
on the readability of the RFID tags. Number of tools and the velocity with which
tools are taken across the portal are two variables that are tested for reliability of
RFID. Tests are conducted using the experiment setup that resembles a
construction site tool management room entrance/exit.
Results show a radical decrease in the readability of tags, while the
numbers of the tools are increased gradually. And also, when the tools were
taken across the RFID portal with gradual increasing velocity, the readability
reduced. These results prove that both the tested parameters have an effect on
the reliability of RFID technology for tool tracking.

▼ An automated instrument based on a single-board microcomputer
was developed for use in voltammetric analyses. Operator input of
numerous experiment parameters allows any type of voltammetric
analysis to be implemented and multiple scans to be run unattended.
A three operational amplifier potentiostat is used to control
the cell voltage and convert the cell current to a voltage signal. A
16-bit digital-to-analog converter allows the computer to determine
the cell voltage. A 12-bit analog-to-digital converter converts the
signal to digital form for the computer to manipulate, store and display.
The potentiostat is isolated electrically from the computer
through the use of opto-isolators.
The computer is interfaced to solid state switches, 3-way
valves and pumps for control of electrode rotation, outgassing of 0₂.
filling of the cell with a buffer solution, and evacuation of cell
solution. Injection of spike solutions and rapid washing of the cell
is also under computer control. Data manipulation handled by the
microcomputer includes waveform generation, data acquisition,
automatic background acquisition and subtraction, polynomial fitting
of the baseline, and peak potential and peak current calculations.
Instrument parameters were optimized in the differential pulse
anodic stripping voltammetry mode with a rotating thin mercury film
electrode on a glassy carbon disc support. With this system the
heavy metals, Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu, were quantitated at 1 μg/L levels
with five minute deposition periods and at 0.1 μg / L levels with
thirty minute deposition.
Metal speciation studies were carried out to evaluate the
automation
abilities of the instrument and to observe and demonstrate
important problems in metal speciation studies with ASV. Pseudopol
arography was used to confirm that EDTA formed a quasi-labile
complex with Cu. Humic acid was adsorbed by the mercury electrode
and reduced the response to metals. The ASV determinable Zn, Cd, Pb
and Cu concentrations in a river water sample were found to be 4.0,
0.32, 0.15 and 0.40 μg/L, respectively. Some complexation capacity
was observed as was adsorption of organics onto the electrode.
