little intervention by humans. A heating system is a system where the temperature inside our homes are being monitored and controlled based on the desired temperature given by a person. The system consists of a controller that allows a person to control and maintain temperature inside the house. The system also has an actuator which consists of servo motors for mechanical operations of the system. It also has a process called the heating operation which consists of a radiator and pipes that run through

No. 4 A Schema Theory of Discrete Motor Skill Learning Richard A. Schmidt Department of Physical Education, University of Southern California A number of closed-loop postulations to explain motor skills learning and performance phenomena have appeared recently, but each of these views suffers from either (a) logical problems in explaining the phenomena or (b) predictions that are not supported by the empirical evidence. After these difficulties are discussed, a new theory for discrete motor

ENVIRONMENTAL/DETERIORATION VARIATION Environmental Variation Opportunities for achieving robustness abound. We have a product, a process and materials. Each can be designed to be robust to the others. In addition, all can be designed to be robust to the usage conditions and environment as well as to wear and deterioration of the components and materials. Given that we wish to deal with quite unrestricted environments, little is known about this sample correlation. Companies sometimes execute

Network Hardening Assignment 8 The Internet is vulnerable to myriads kinds of attacks, due to: 1. Vulnerabilities in the TCP-IP protocol 2. No global flow control mechanisms The above two problems lead to many TCP exploits and the dreaded DDoS attacks. We have devised a method of incrementally upgrading the network infrastructure at the transport level that solves the above problems and makes the network significantly more resilient to attacks, particularly the DDoS attack. The approach uses
