The disclosure relates to a dimension measurement apparatus that reduces time required for dimension measurement and eliminates errors caused by an operator. Therefore, the dimension measurement apparatus uses a first image recognition model that extracts a boundary line between a processed structure and a background over the entire cross-sectional image and/or a boundary line of an interface between different kinds of materials, and a second image recognition that output information for dividing the boundary line extending over the entire cross-sectional image obtained from the first image recognition model for each unit pattern constituting a repetitive pattern, obtains coordinates of a plurality of feature points defined in advance for each unit pattern, and measures a dimension defined as a distance between two predetermined points of the plurality of feature points.

A method of controlling a gas furnace system includes determining a first pressure in a conduit coupled to a draft inducer from signals output by a pressure transducer positioned to sense a pressure within the conduit with a motor of the draft inducer in a stopped condition. A first status of the pressure transducer is determined based at least in part on the first pressure. The motor of the draft inducer is controlled to increase a speed of the motor from the stopped condition in response to a call for heat when the first status does not indicate that the pressure transducer is unreliable, and the motor is maintained in a stopped condition when the first status indicates that the pressure transducer is unreliable.

Tools and techniques are described to automate line testing when wiring devices (such as equipment and sensors) to controllers. Controllers have access to databases of the devices that are controlled by them, including wiring diagrams and protocols, such that the controller can automatically check that each wire responds correctly to stimulus from the controller. After testing, a reporting device rapidly shows the results of the line testing.

A control system includes a control engine that cyclically updates internal state values on the basis of a signal exchanged with a control target; a security engine that executes an incident response operation in response to an incident that possibly occurs in the control system; and a phase update module that updates a phase value indicating an operation state of the control target on the basis of one or more values selected discretionarily in advance by a user from among the internal state values retained by the control engine. The security engine retains operation definition information in which the content of the incident response operation is defined for each phase, and executes a corresponding incident response operation defined in the operation definition information in accordance with the phase value updated by the phase update module.

The present disclosure generally relates to capturing events of interest relevant to security and data provenance within a cyber-physical system. The present disclosure also relates to systems and methods for monitoring, capturing, logging, analyzing, and reporting of kernel-level events. Systems and methods for generating a time-ordered event data stream of kernel-level events captured across different types of computing devices (e.g., devices running operating systems and devices running real-time operating systems) included in an industrial control system, are described.
