Throttle Control Malfunction

Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention, 2008
We have all heard stories about runaway vehicles that accelerate uncontrollably and collide with other vehicles, crash into buildings or run people over. The circumstances often sound familiar and are sometimes tragic. The vehicle accelerates for no apparent reason and the driver is said to have been rendered helpless in an out-of-control machine.

Adaptive control of automotive electronic throttle

Control Engineering Practice, 2006
An electronic throttle is a DC servo drive which provides precise, drive-by-wire positioning of the throttle plate. This paper presents an electronic throttle control strategy consisting of a PID controller, and nonlinear friction and limp-home compensators.

Throttle Control for Vehicle Following

Proceedings. The First IEEE Regional Conference on Aerospace Control Systems,, 2005
Throttle control design is an important part of Automated Vehicle Control System (AVCS). In this paper we design some throttle control schemes for vehicle following under constant time headway spacing policy. The schemes maintain a steady state inter-vehicle spacing decided by a desired time headway set by the driver.

DBMS workload control using throttling

Proceedings of the 2008 conference of the center for advanced studies on collaborative research meeting of minds - CASCON '08, 2008
Today's database management systems (DBMSs) are required to handle diverse, mixed workloads and to provide differentiated levels of service to ensure that critical work takes priority. In order to meet these needs, it is necessary for a DBMS to have control over the workload executing in the system.
