Mechanization, Automation, and Computerization for Greenhouse Production

Iupac Automation and Mechanization in Clinical Microbiology

It is widely recognized that the diagnostic clinical laboratory has been revolutionized during recent years by extraordinary progress and instrumentation in automation. The microbiology and immunology laboratories have not developed until quite recently a sophisticated instrumentation and automation methodology. However, such advances are dependent on both modification and expansion of conventi...

Formalization, Mechanization and Automation of Gödel's Proof of God's Existence

Mine Mechanization and Automation at CANMET, Natural Resources Canada

Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is a federal government department specializing in the sustainable development and use of natural resources—energy, minerals and metals, forests—and in Earth sciences. NRCan deals with natural resource issues that are important to Canadians. These issues are examined from both a national and international perspective, our expertise in science and technology, pol...

A Specification for an Autonomous Crop Production Mechanization System

This paper describes the specification of requirements and the functionality, of a novel agricultural mechanisation system based on small smart machines. It separates the current mechanisation methods from the original plant requirements and in doing so allows a new specification to develop based on agronomic, economic and environmental needs that can lead to a more sustainable production syste...

Globalization and Traceability of Agricultural Production: The Role of Mechanization

The topic evolved from the belief that the new trend on traceability of products is related also to an appropriate mechanization and that each machine has to answer to the quality requirements of food needed by the market (Prof. Giuseppe Pellizzi, personal communication, 2002). In this paper, we address the topic of traceability in agriculture and what traceability means to the future of agricu...
