In this research, the design and simulation of an automatic system for temperature control using embedded system in order to automatically control of multi appliances depend on the temperature value. The appliances will be controlled are ventilation, cooling, heating and alert. This is an order to avoid or reduce to human intervention and increase system reliability. An important feature of this automation process is to reduce or eliminate the possibility of relying on the human factor operator for industries, warehouses and laboratories, and to improve working and performance environments. The system in this paper used the microcontroller PIC16F887 as the central control unit, LM35 temperature sensor as a temperature source,16x2 liquid crystal display (LCD) as indicator to display the different system working status an addition to some of drivers, relay and light emitting diodes (LED) as indicators to display the corresponding working appliance driver. The implementation and simulation of the system work has been achieved by using Proteus professional software v8.0 and mikroc pro for pic v.6.6.1 software to write the equivalent program and generate.

Objectives: (1) To investigate the state of diversity and inclusion initiatives in otolaryngology–head and neck surgery (OHNS) as compared to general surgery and (2) assess their effects on female representation in these programs. Methods: The websites of OHNS residency programs, general surgery residency programs, and their associated academic medical institutions were indexed for content related to diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives. Gender data were gathered and used as a proxy for identity diversity. Results: All programs surveyed (N = 198) have D&I programs at the institutional level and have an office of D&I (or equivalent program). However, only 18% of general surgery programs and 19% of otolaryngology programs have additional department-level D&I initiatives. There was an increase in the proportion of female residents across all residency programs if the program mentioned D&I on their website (44% vs 38%, P = .004) and if the program reported a D&I initiative (45% vs 38%, P < .001). Conclusion: Despite the ACGME’s recent emphasis on the importance of recruiting and retaining a diverse physician workforce, the minority of otolaryngology residency programs advertise any concerted, department-level efforts toward increasing D&I at their residency program. General surgery programs have a significantly higher proportion of female department chairs and higher mean proportion of female residents when compared to OHNS. Programs that mention the diversity of their residents or faculty on the program website and programs with their own D&I initiatives have a higher mean proportion of female residents.

Soil And Plant Analysis

Summary. In relatively few years, the Australian Soil and Plant Analysis Council Inc. (ASPAC) has conducted 2 inter-laboratory proficiency programs on plant material and 3 inter-laboratory proficiency programs on soils. The purpose of these performance-based programs is to enhance the quality of soil and plant analysis in Australasia, with guidance where necessary from the soil and plant expertise of ASPAC members. ASPAC’s inaugural ‘Accreditation Committee’ reviewed published standards and existing laboratory accreditation/proficiency programs in Australia and internationally before developing what is now in full operation. This historical perspective and the 12 principles that guide operations of ASPAC’s soil and plant proficiency programs are described, as are the numeric procedures used to determine satisfactory performance. Certificates are issued to successful laboratories on completion of each program. Moreover, these remain current until signed certificates from the next equivalent program are released. Wide variations in some data sets suggest there is considerable scope to improve laboratory accuracy, particularly for soil chemical tests. Some of these differences are sufficient to markedly affect the assessment of fertiliser requirements. The present ‘Accreditation Committee’, in addition to State Representatives, serve as ‘points-of-contact’ for laboratories that require assistance to overcome problems with analytical accuracy and precision. ASPAC encourages its member laboratories to seek and maintain NATA (National Association of Testing Authorities, Australia) accreditation, in addition to participating regularly in the performance-based proficiency programs run by ASPAC.

This paper deals with the development of methods for analysis, and derivation of computer programs, for digitalizing continuous control systems. More spe cifically, given a continuous control system, we wish to determine an "equivalent" computer program to take the place of some analog shaping network in the system. An equivalent program is one for which the response of the digital system approximates the response of the continuous system in the time do main. Time and frequency comparisons between the responses of continuous and digitalized systems to step inputs are given. Equivalent computer programs for various standard shaping networks are derived. Revised programs are determined, where use is made of prediction and extrapolation techniques to com pensate for digital computation delay time. Finally, the feedback network in a missile control system containing an unstable aerodynamic airframe is digitalized, and the simulated system is run on an analog-digital hybrid computer system. Results are given, indicating system performance as a function of sampling rate, computation delay, and system gains.

AimsTo collate experiences of international medical graduates (trained psychiatrists) on the Medical Training Initiative (MTI) and equivalent programs (International Medical Fellowship (IMF)/CESR Fellowships) in the United Kingdom and to understand shared themes.MethodThree psychiatrists with the experience of being part of MTI/IMF program, for a minimum of 1 year, participated in theme guided, focussed discussions to understand common experiences. These discussion where limited to 3 broad headings. Opportunities to grow, what we wish the college knew and what we wished the trusts and supervisors knew. The experiential accounts were captured and circulated among a group of 20 MTI/IMF/CESR fellowship doctors and rated on a 5 point Likert scale varying between strongly agree to strongly disagree.ResultThe findings suggest that the expectations and experiences of the psychiatrists on such programs share some common themes. Most of them had varied experiences under the theme ‘opportunities to grow’. The suggestions for what these doctors ‘wished the trusts, college and supervisors knew’ had a good concordance among the 20 doctors who reviewed the themes and suggestions. The details of the themes and commonalities will be discussed at the conference.ConclusionThe expectations and experiences of the doctors on MTI/equivalent program share common themes. Bridging the gap between MTI experience to an excellent MTI experience would involve identifying such shared experiences, that could potentially guide development of processes, thereby making these training fellowships better tailored to each trainee.
