Automation Industries, when dealing with government, industry, financial and academic institutions. The aim of the BARA is to promote the use of, and assist in the development of Automation in British industry. If you are interested in purchasing Automation products, please check out our supplier information page . In order to help users of automation to keep up to date with automation technology we are running a seminar series and also building up a database of educational documents which may be of interest. If you have any requests for informaiton you would like to be included, or any information we could use, please email us.

This paper examines the implementation and functionality of the Sydney Water Operational Control Strategy utilising the IICATS System.
IICATS, the Integrated

Instrumentation, Control, Automation & Telemetry System, as the name
suggests, is a complete system from the instrumentation and controls on each operational asset through to the sophisticated human machine interfaces (HMI) used by water and wastewater system operators, maintainers, managers, developers, modellers and other business users and systems.
A key component in the design philosophy was for the control to be distributed to the lowest
levels of the system and, wherever possible, to remain autonomous from the next higher level.
This has resulted in sites being able to operate completely independently from the Telemetry Master.
All site calculations and profiles necessary for the control of the site are held in the RTU. Where
necessary the RTUs communicate via peer to peer calls to other RTUs to modify the local proce

seen in other electronic devices. Users need to increase the usage of RTUs in their networks if they are to realise the benefits of Metcalf’s law that states that the power of a network increases by the square of the number of nodes in that network. This paper discusses the issues surrounding this conundrum.

US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Artificial Intelligence to Man Air Traffic Control By Joshua Hill Thursday, February 14, 2008 I would be remiss
...
if I didn’t start this article out preaching some sort of dire warnings about the threat of artificial intelligence and robotic overlords. And when you hear of the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) creating an AI that can run air traffic control stations, you begin to wonder how wise it is letting DARPA have any money whatsoever. Thankfully, it isn’t as scary as it sounds – although, the simple fact is, DARPA produces technologies that almost always filter through in to the mainstream. For the moment however, the DARPA research is concentrating on providing assistance to US Military Air Fields with an AI that will help automate some procedures. The Generalized Integrated Learning Architecture (GILA) is intended to supplement and probably eventually takeover human controls to manage the load of increased air traff
