Ready to leap to neo-creationism

Like the master puppet makers of the classic folk tales, artificial intelligence (AI) engineers have built some marvelous machines. The first 50 years of AI focused on programming computers to perform tasks that previously only humans could do tasks such as speech, driving, planning, problem solving and vacuuming. The principal challenges have been to create suitable language systems and inference engines and then to more or less manually stuff those with sufficient facts, heuristics and algorithms to perform well-defined tasks. To get there, we need a singularity of artificial neo-creationism, where we launch artificial beings into the world that can adapt, learn and evolve themselves. The term neo-creationism means an intentional effort to populate the world with intelligent entities initially engineered by humans. The biblical story of Genesis, the heart of creationism, provides an apt foil for understanding the goals and scope of the R&D program advocated here. To reach the goal reasonably quickly, we should equip these creatures with as much capability and knowledge as possible.

面向设备管理流程的SIS功能介绍

近年来,厂级监控信息系统(SIS)发展越来越快,关于SIS的高级功能的实用化问题的讨论也越来越多。笔者认为,要使SIS更实用化,必须使SIS的高级功能面向电厂的管理流程,如面向设备管理流程或者面向设备运行流程。为此,设计了一个面向设备管理流程的SIS功能包,该功能包将以前分散的SIS功能通过管理流程实现了集成。

Using contests to teach design to EE juniors

Most electrical engineering programs have a capstone design course, but lack a suitable design experience in the junior year. This makes the capstone course very difficult for students and compromises its pedagogical aims. A good design experience offers opportunities for learning to identify key operational concepts, to identify and remedy procedural and factual knowledge deficits, and to exercise judgment. The design problem should be open-ended, moderately difficult, and common to all groups. We use a design contest as a vehicle for teaching design in the junior-year analog electronics course, in lieu of conventional laboratories. Students design and build analog circuitry to autonomously control a small robotic vehicle. The contest culminates in a competitive tournament. Students' questionnaire responses indicate that the contest is a useful learning tool, increasing interest in electrical engineering and well worth the time spent. They indicate that contests are preferable to conventional labs for learning and understanding course material, for motivating them, and for providing an engineering experience     

音扎线加装失步振荡解列装置的必要性

呼兴电网联网后存在诸多的暂态安全稳定问题,其中乌兰浩特地区机组暂态功角稳定问题尤其突出,威胁着电网的安全稳定运行。通过对乌兰浩特地区机组暂稳问题模拟计算的分析,采取在音扎线装设失步振荡解列装置,可使系统发生故障后将失步机组从系统中解列,保证主网和解列地区电网暂态稳定。
