Validation of Standards Interfaces for Machine Control

May 27, 1996
Author(s)
Frederick M. Proctor, John L. Michaloski, William P. Shackleford, Sandor S. Szabo
Open architecture controllers offer a multitude of benefits to users of machine tools, robots, and coordinate measuring machines, ultimately reducing the life-cycle costs of installing, operating, and maintaining manufacturing equipment. Aside from those

The ADACS Implementation of the UTAP Architecture

December 1, 1995
Author(s)
Robert Russell, John L. Michaloski, Keith A. Stouffer
The Advanced Deburring and Chamfer System is robotic workcell designed to put precision chamfers on parts made with hard metals. The project was funded by the United States Navy so that the technology developed could be applied to their air defense systems

Reference Architecture for Machine Control Systems Integration: Interim Report

January 1, 1994
Author(s)
M. K. Senehi, Thomas R. Kramer, John L. Michaloski, Richard Quintero, Steven R. Ray, William G. Rippey, S Wallace
The Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory (MEL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), has been conducting research on control of mechanical systems for more than sixteen years. The Intelligent Systems Division and the Manufacturing

ADACS - An Automated System for Part Finishing

April 1, 1993
Author(s)
Keith A. Stouffer, John L. Michaloski, B Russell, Frederick M. Proctor
This paper describes an automated finishing system called the Advanced Deburring and Chamfering System (ADACS). ADACS uses the Real-Time Control System (RCS), a hierarchical controller architecture that was developed at the National Institute of Standards

A Methodology for Integrating Sensor Feedback in Machine Tool Controllers

June 30, 1992
Author(s)
Frederick M. Proctor, John L. Michaloski, Thomas Kramer
A reference model architecture for real-time hierarchical control systems has been proposed by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and has been implemented on a variety of computing platforms for manufacturing and vehicle

Exploiting Computational Parallelism with a Hierarchical Robot Control System

April 29, 1988
Author(s)
John L. Michaloski, Thomas E. Wheatley, Ronald Lumia
Sequential machines do not provide enough computational perfomance for a real-time robot control system. Hierarchical structuring will be considered not only as a software development methodology, but also as a means for implementing a robot control system
