Logical Control
In 1996 Russian Foundation for Basic Research in the context of publishing project #96-01-14066 had supported publishing of a book (Shalyto 1998), in which the offered technology was described in application to the logical control systems.
In such systems there are no events, but input and output actions are binary variables and operating system is working in the scanning mode. Systems of this class are usually to be implemented on programmable logic controllers, which have relatively small amount of memory and programming is to be performed using specialized languages (for example, the language of ladder schemes or functional blocks). Methods of formal source code generation for such languages were developed for the cases in which the specification of the project being developed is represented by a system of transition graphs of interacting automata (Shalyto 1998).

Famous quotes containing the words logical and/or control:
“I see mysteries and complications wherever I look, and I have never met a steadily logical person.”
—Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)
“I candidly confess that I have ever looked on Cuba as the most interesting addition which could ever be made to our system of States. The control which, with Florida, this island would give us over the Gulf of Mexico, and the countries and isthmus bordering on it, as well as all those whose waters flow into it, would fill up the measure of our political well-being.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
