A Flashback on Control Logic Injection Attacks against Programmable Logic Controllers

open access: yesAutomation, 2022
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) make up a substantial part of critical infrastructures (CIs) and industrial control systems (ICSs). They are programmed with a control logic that defines how to drive and operate critical processes such as nuclear ...

To Automate or not to Automate? Is that the Question? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Applied Management and Entrepreneurship, 2014
Managers fear that not only are consumers less satisfied and loyal when they use technology-based interfaces but that increased satisfaction may not necessarily result in higher loyalty. The underlying assumption is that technology is responsible for differences in evaluative processes used to judge electronically provided services, which affects ...

The Automation of Science [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
The basis of science is the hypothetico-deductive method and the recording of experiments in sufficient detail to enable reproducibility. We report the development of Robot Scientist “Adam,” which advances the automation of both. Adam has autonomously generated functional genomics hypotheses about the yeast Saccharomyces ...

Process improvement and automation in construction: Opposing or complementing approaches? [PDF]

open access: yes
It is widely recognized that there must be wide-ranging changes in construction before automation can be implemented in practice. On the other hand, the innovation rate of construction is rather low, and thus it is unclear, how the steps necessary for ...

Stator-Rotor Contact Force Estimation of Rotating Machine

open access: yesAutomation, 2021
In turbomachines, dry friction resulting from stator–rotor contacts is a severe problem that may degrade lifetime of the machine or even lead to complete failure. Knowledge about the system states and contact forces is beneficial for system monitoring or
