The use of networks for communication between electronic control units has increased in car
industry over the last two decades. Several types of networks were developed for this …

In this paper, a pyramid control hierarchy is proposed. It is based on the presence of a
supervisor controller on top of separate controller nodes. A simulation study is conducted to …

Automotive industry is in continuous evolution. Luxury as well as comfort is important. Safety
measures are the most important in designing a moving vehicle. Safety can be studied from …

The switched Ethernet networks are more and more deployed in industry. The Spanning
Tree Protocol implemented in the switches enables management of the link connectivity. But …

The use of Ethernet protocol for railway vehicle on-board networks is considered. It is shown
that a single Ethernet network can carry real-time control data, thus replacing existing train …

The thermochemical Copper–Chlorine (Cu–Cl) cycle is an emerging new method of nuclear-
based hydrogen production. In the process, water is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen …

In this paper, a simulation study is made to test the fault tolerant ability of networked
machines. This ability is introduced by reallocating loads in case of controller failure. Also …
