Proceedings of the Ship Control Systems Symposium (6th) Held in Ottawa, Canada on 26-30 October 1981. Supplement
Abstract
The technical papers presented at the Symposium and published in these proceedings cover the entire spectrum of ship control systems and provide an insight into technological developments which are continuously offering the ship control system designer new options in addressing the complex man/machine operation. The microprocessor and its apparently unlimited development potential in future digital, distributed control systems appears ready to reshape the conventional concepts now so familiar in control system designs. There are many concerns that the advantages of the new technologies will be negated by the inability of training systems to graduate technicians who can adequately cope with these new systems. This volume contains: The keynote address -- Ship control systems challenges for the 80's and beyond; Analysis of subjects and contributors; Appendices -- List of authors, session chairmen, and guest speakers; Author and chairmen biographies, Symposium guest speakers, DGMEM organization, and Sixth ship control systems symposium organization.
