Using Event-B for Critical Device Software Systems

Using Event-B for Critical Device Software Systems

Keith Glover

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
nidottu
Using Event-B for Critical Device Software Systems serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students of formal methods. The assessment of critical systems development is applicable to all industries, but engineers and physicians from the health domain will find the cardiac pacemaker case study of particular value.This allows the key issue - that formal methods are not currently integrated into established critical systems development processes - to be discussed in a highly effective and informative way.This is assessed and evaluated via a standard case study: the cardiac pacemaker. Additionally a formalisation of an Electrocardiogram (ECG) is used to identify anomalies in order to improve existing medical protocols.this book adopts a rigorous safety assessment approach explored via several layers.

Minimum Entropy H_ Control

Minimum Entropy H_ Control

Denis Mustafa; Keith Glover

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1990
nidottu
This monograph is concerned with the design of feedback controllers for linear multivariable systems, which are robust to system uncertainty. System uncertainty can be realistically represented by including perturbations with bounded H?-norm, and this is the approach taken here. For a given H?-norm bound, there is a family of robustly stabilizing controllers, and the central question in this book is which of these controllers to choose. One choice to take is that which minimizes the enthropy of the resulting closed loop transfer function, and the derivation and properties of this solution occupies most of this monograph. Explicit formulae are obtained for the minimum enthropy solution, which is a precisely defined compromise between the Linear Quadratic Gaussian optimal solution and the H?-optimal solution. The book will be appropriate for graduate classes requiring only a first course in state-space methods, and some elementary knowledge of H? control and Linear Quadratic Gaussian control.

Robust Controller Design Using Normalized Coprime Factor Plant Descriptions

Robust Controller Design Using Normalized Coprime Factor Plant Descriptions

Duncan C. McFarlane; Keith Glover

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1989
nidottu
This monograph concerns the design of feedback controllers for multivariable linear dynamic systems. The particular approach is to consider a coprime factor description of the plant's transfer function and to represent a family of systems by perturbing the numerator and denominator. The design of controllers to robustly stabilize such a family is posed as an H? optimization problem and some explicit solutions are obtained. Similarly, procedures for reduced order modelling and controller design are derived. Finally, the results are exploited to give a systematic loop shaping control system design procedure that is assessed on several aerospace examples. The book will be appropriate for advanced undergraduate or graduate classes requiring only a first course in state-space methods. It also gives a good introduction to multivariable control and the use of H? methods.

Black Cowboys of Rodeo

Black Cowboys of Rodeo

Keith Ryan Cartwright; Danny L. Glover

University of Nebraska Press
2021
sidottu
Winner of the 2023 Best Book Award from American Book Fest They ride horses, rope calves, buck broncos, ride and fight bulls, and even wrestle steers. They are Black cowboys, and the legacies of their pursuits intersect with those of America’s struggle for racial equality, human rights, and social justice. Keith Ryan Cartwright brings to life the stories of such pioneers as Cleo Hearn, the first Black cowboy to professionally rope in the Rodeo Cowboy Association; Myrtis Dightman, who became known as the Jackie Robinson of Rodeo after being the first Black cowboy to qualify for the National Finals Rodeo; and Tex Williams, the first Black cowboy to become a state high school rodeo champion in Texas.Black Cowboys of Rodeo is a collection of one hundred years of stories, told by these revolutionary Black pioneers themselves and set against the backdrop of Reconstruction, Jim Crow, segregation, the civil rights movement, and eventually the integration of a racially divided country.

Governing the Wind Energy Commons

Governing the Wind Energy Commons

Keith Taylor

West Virginia University Press
2019
sidottu
Wind energy is often framed as a factor in rural economic development, an element of the emerging “green economy” destined to upset the dominant greenhouse- gas-emitting energy industry and deliver conscious capitalism to host communities. The bulk of wind energy firms, however, are subsidiaries of the same fossil fuel companies that wrought havoc in shale-gas and coal-mining towns from rural Appalachia to the Great Plains. On its own, wind energy development does not automatically translate into community development.In Governing the Wind Energy Commons, Keith Taylor asks whether revenue generated by wind power can be put to community well-being rather than corporate profit. He looks to the promising example of rural electric cooperatives, owned and governed by the 42 million Americans they serve, which generate $40 billion in annual revenue. Through case studies of a North Dakota wind energy cooperative and an investor-owned wind farm in Illinois, Taylor examines how regulatory and social forces are shaping this emerging energy sector. He draws on interviews with local residents to assess strategies for tipping the balance of power away from absentee-owned utilities.

It’s the Government, Stupid

It’s the Government, Stupid

Keith Dowding

Bristol University Press
2020
sidottu
Governments have developed a convenient habit of blaming social problems on their citizens, placing too much emphasis on personal responsibility and pursuing policies to ‘nudge’ their citizens to better behaviour. Keith Dowding shows that, in fact, responsibility for many of our biggest social crises – including homelessness, gun crime, obesity, drug addiction and problem gambling – should be laid at the feet of politicians. He calls for us to stop scapegoating fellow citizens and to demand more from our governments, who have the real power and responsibility to alleviate social problems and bring about lasting change.

Economic Perspectives on Government

Economic Perspectives on Government

Keith Dowding; Brad R. Taylor

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019
sidottu
“Dowding and Taylor offer student and scholar alike a clear and compelling perspective on the foundations of political economy. Their narrative coherently frames the scholarship of the last half century, and persuasively applies it to the recurring problems facing groups, markets, and whole societies.”—Kenneth A. Shepsle, Harvard University, USAThis book introduces and applies the economic way of thinking to public policy and public administration. It provides a non-technical introduction and assumes no prior economic or mathematical training but looks closely at the methodological and normative assumptions underlying economic analysis. It provides a deep understanding of the method than a simple technical presentation would allow. After introducing the basic assumptions of the economic method, the book considers the analysis of market failure, the role of government in a market economy, behavioural economics, bargaining in government, bureaucracy, interest groups, and levels of government. By providing a balanced introduction to and overview of economic approaches to government, the book will be useful to undergraduate and postgraduate students in public administration and public policy, as well as academics and practitioners in these fields interested in the application of the economic way of thinking.

Swindling Middle-America How YOUR Government Works to Keep YOU Poor --- What WE Should Do

Swindling Middle-America How YOUR Government Works to Keep YOU Poor --- What WE Should Do

Scott Keith

Lulu.com
2007
pokkari
The probability of attaining life-time financial success among middle income families and individuals ranges from being extremely challenging to virtually impossible. Why this is true has not been adequately explained. "Swindling Middle-America" thoroughly examines the issues related to this worsening situation, while exposing the largest obstacle to achievement of financial success by the middle class -- the various government entities of the Unites States. The book's analytically supported conclusions will permit the reader to fully understand the lack of opportunity afforded the average American in their search for long-term financial security. Importantly, the book transitions from "problem" to "solution" by conducting an examination of how the United States should proceed to change its political process to return the prospect for meaningful financial development to the average citizen.
