Natural language inputs to a simulation programming system: An introduction
naturallanguagei00heid.pdf (2.348Mb)Abstract
A simulation programming system with which models for simple queueing problems can be built through natural-language interaction with a computer is described. In this system the English statement of a problem is first translated into a language-independent entity-attribute-value information structure, which can then be translated back into an equivalent English description and into a GPSS simulation program for the problem. This processing is done on an IBM 360/67 by a FORTRAN program which is guided by a set of stratified decoding and encoding rules written in a grammar-rule language developed for this system. A detailed example of the use of the system is included

Active Control of Adaptive Optics System in a Large Segmented Mirror Telescope
(2012);For a large Adaptive Optics (AO) system such as a large Segmented Mirror Telescope (SMT), it is often difficult, although not impossible, to directly apply common Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) controller design methods ... -
Spin stabilization of the ORION satellite using a thruster attitude control system with optimal control considerations
(Naval Postgraduate School, 1989);The controlled system is the ORION satellite spinning about its single axis of symmetry. Hydrazine thrusters are used as the control and are modeled by ideal, constant magnitude step functions. The system is normalized and ... -
Acquisition and Development Programs through the Lens of System Complexity
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2018-04-30); SYM-AM-18-165The approach of the Department of Defense (DoD) to acquisition programs is strongly based on systems engineering. DoD Directive 5000.01 calls for "the application of a systems engineering approach that optimizes total ...
