Industry 5.0, the latest wave of industrial revolution, is redefining traditional manufacturing and production landscapes by leveraging advanced technologies, promoting sustainability, fostering a human-centric approach. An inevitable consequence this progression Quality next phase quality control assurance. 5.0 aims to transcend limitations conventional techniques, which are typically reactive...

In this paper we discuss the suitability of standard discrete-time control models for the analysis and design of control loops implemented over Networked Control Systems. In fact, depending on the specific control loop topology, different control approaches may apply. We distinguish between control approaches that offer synchronous and asynchronous actuation. Through simulation results we show ...

In collaborative software development, the utilization of Version Control Systems (VCSs) is a must. For this, a multitude of pessimistic as well as optimistic VCSs for model artifacts emerged. Pessimistic approaches follow the lock-edit-unlock paradigm whereas optimistic approaches allow parallel editing of one resource, which are therefore the preferred ones. To be flexible for the ever increa...

This article gives an overview of the Mechanism Model paradigm. The mechanism model paradigm provides a framework to modeling mechanisms for robotic control. The emphasis is on the unification of mathematical models of kinematics/dynamics, geometric information and control system parameters of a variety of robotic systems (including serial manipulators, wheeled and legged locomotors), with algo...

The traditional control curricula organization is not adequate for the new generations of students. This paper proposes the challenge to change completely the sequence of traditional control subjects. Firstly it proposes to develop control as a branch of information processing sciences. Paradigms for information are proposed: integral-differential paradigm, data-paradigm, linguistic paradigm. T...
