Control and Discovery of Environment Behaviour

IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 2022
An important ability of self-adaptive systems is to be able to autonomously understand the environment in which they operate and use this knowledge to control the environment behaviour in such a way that system goals are achieved. How can this be achieved when the environment is unknown?

Abstractions of control environments

BIT, 1983
This paper focusses on a language which allows to program and encapsulate control environments. The proposal is to tackle control related problems much the same way data type related problems have been tackled in recent programming language designs, that is introducing the possibility of building complex structures starting from a restricted set of ...

Controlling Cryptosporidium in the environment

Veterinary Record, 2015
Cryptosporidium is a zoonotic pathogen which can affect livestock, wild animals and people. If public water supplies become contaminated with the parasite, it can pose a public health risk. Recently, Beth Wells and colleagues from the Moredun Research Institute undertook a study looking at

Quality Control of Work Environments

American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1971
As concern for environment increases, the impetus to apply more sophisticated quality control techniques to the work place environment will develop. Control concepts which are presented in this paper are applicable in industrial hygiene practice to a wide variety of situations; the examples presented vary in scale from vapor control at a single process

Control of specimen orientation and environment

Journal of Electron Microscopy Technique, 1989
Application of electron microscopy in a wide variety of fields of investigation has placed ever-expanding demands on the various components of the instrument. In situ specimen manipulation is one such demand and can often be critical to the success of an experiment.

Using Technology to Control the Environment

The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 1987
Abstract Over the last 5 years, technological advances have resulted in specialized technical aids, such as electronic communication devices, computer input devices, and environmental control systems, which have made it possible for many persons who are severely physically disabled to enjoy greater functional independence within the home,

The Control Environment

1996
There is some confusion between understanding the importance of the control environment in which an organisation exists and dealing with accounting aspects, which are largely about presentation and form. It is important to distinguish between the two. In our view the more important area to focus on is the control environment because this provides the ...

Access control for collaborative environments

Proceedings of the 1992 ACM conference on Computer-supported cooperative work - CSCW '92, 1992
In this dissertation, previous work on access control for both collaborative and non-collaborative systems is surveyed. New access control requirements for general collaborative environments are identified, and it is shown that existing models do not completely meet these requirements.
