Abstract This paper reviews the Hansford Assembly Flex project recently conducted at RPI. Assembly Flex is a modular automation assembly system in the truest sense. It most cases it can be reconfigured (re-tooled) in under 20 minutes and go from building water pumps to car stereos. Much of this flexibility stems from its unique software control system developed by the authors and others.

With rapid developments in industry wide automation control systems, there have been numerous proposed design and control strategies as alternatives to conventional methods. This term paper deals with the same in the context of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV’s) with a review of the current literature for proposed design improvements as well as trajectory control systems that can improve productivity and reduce conflicts compared to current methods. The results of these proposed methods are also compared in contrast to each other to obtain holistic view of the merits and demerits of the same. It is found that a fuzzy logic based PID control is a definite upgrade over conventional PID control systems and that the application of LIDAR and Camera based technologies can help enable free roaming AGV’s lending to increased robustness and flexibility. For a control system consisting of a single AGV and multiple processing stations, a genetic algorithm enhanced centralized fuzzy logic control system is the most optimal path planning algorithm whereas in the cases of multiple robots, a dynamic priority allocated free roaming AGVsystem with semi-decentralized control is found to be much more efficient at simultaneously solving paths and reducingconflicts with other robots in real time compared to the purely centralized systems.

This research is a causality study with the title "Effect of Government Internal Control Systems and Employee Competence on the Performance of Government Agencies in Karimun Regency." The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the implementation of the Government's Internal Control System on the performance of Karimun Regency government agencies and to determine the effect of employee competence on the performance of Karimun Regency government agencies. Data collection using a questionnaire where the questionnaire contained questions about the Government's Internal Control System, employee competencies and agency performance. Data were tested using multiple linear regression statistical tests. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the governmental internal control system has a significant positive effect on Government Agency Performance with the results of statistical tests that show a sig value of 0.016 <0.05 (alpha 5%). Employee Competency has a significant positive effect on Government Performance with the results of statistical tests showing a sig value of 0,000.
