Human excreta and sanitation: Control and protection

A Statistical Method for Sequential Images – Based Process Monitoring

Today, with the growth of technology, monitoring processes by the use of video and satellite sensors have been more expanded, due to their rich and valuable information. Recently, some researchers have used sequential images for image defect detection because a single image is not sufficient for process monitoring. In this paper, by adding the time dimension to the image-based process monitorin...

A Method for USJ Process Control

Ultra-Shallow Junction formation is one of the most challenging areas of semiconductor processing to monitor. Most of the dopant characterization techniques, both electrical and optical, are primarily designed to monitor only one step of doping process: they can be used either to monitor implant induced defect density or to measure activated doping. The presented Surface Photo-Voltage (SPV) bas...

Infection control in healthcare settings: perspectives for mfDNA analysis in monitoring sanitation procedures

BACKGROUND Appropriate sanitation procedures and monitoring of their actual efficacy represent critical points for improving hygiene and reducing the risk of healthcare-associated infections. Presently, surveillance is based on traditional protocols and classical microbiology. Innovation in monitoring is required not only to enhance safety or speed up controls but also to prevent cross infectio...

A New Method for Time-Delay Compensation in Control Systems

In this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. The concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (Ir-TF), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. Ir-TFs, which are we...
