51Fan control — is the management of the rotational speed of an electric fan. There are many types of electric fans and many types of fan controls. This article principally describes the control of a computer fan, to provide adequate cooling while lowering noise …
52Orchestra Control Engine — is a suite of software components (based on Linux/RTAI) for the planning, development and deployment of real time control applications for industrial machines and robots. Orchestra Control Engine has been developed by Sintesi SpA in collaboration …
53Vector control (motor) — Vector control (also called Field Oriented Control, FOC) is one method used in variable frequency drives to control the torque (and thus finally the speed) of three phase AC electric motors by controlling the current fed to the machine.MethodThe… …
54Monitoring control and surveillance — Monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS), in the context of fisheries, is defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations as a broadening of traditional enforcing national rules over fishing, to the support of the… …
55Job control — in computing refers to the control of multiple tasks or Jobs on a computer system, ensuring that they each have access to adequate resources to perform correctly, that competition for limited resources does not cause a deadlock where two or more… …
56Automatic gain control — (AGC) is an adaptive system found in many electronic devices. The average output signal level is fed back to adjust the gain to an appropriate level for a range of input signal levels. For example, without AGC the sound emitted from an AM radio… …
57Job control (Unix) — On operating systems that support executing multiple processes in parallel or in series (batch processing), job control refers to the orchestration of multiple batch jobs.Unix shellWhen using Unix or related operating systems via a terminal, a… …
58Open system (control theory) — An open system is a feedforward system that does not have any feedback loop to control its output in a control system in systems theory. The system is an open system because it does not have a feedback loop in its control. In contrast, a closed… …
59C0 and C1 control codes — Most character encodings, in addition to representing printable characters, may also represent additional information about the text, such as the position of a cursor, an instruction to start a new line, or a message that the text has been… …
60Engine control unit — An engine control unit (ECU) is an electronic control unit which controls various aspects of an internal combustion engine s operation. The simplest ECUs control only the quantity of fuel injected into each cylinder each engine cycle. More… …
