- 4. The Functional Diagram of Semiotics Semiotics is proposed as a new paradigm of science in the 21st Century Description Semiotics is the study of sign process, which is any form of activity, conduct, or any process that involves signs, including the production of meaning. A sign is anything that communicates a meaning, that is not the sign itself, to the interpreter of the sign.

- 6. The Following Special Formulation is Offered Mechatronics studies synergistic fusion of precise • mechatronical units, • electronic, • electro technical and computer components for the purpose of designing and manufacturing qualitatively new • modules, • systems, • machines and complexes of machines with intellectual control of their functional movements
- 7. Comments to the Definition • Mechatronics studies special conceptual approach to construction of machines. • The definition emphasizes synergetic character of components’ integration in mechatronic objects. • Integrated mechatronic components are always chosen at the designing stage. • Methods of parallel designing serve as methodological basis for Mechatronic Systems (MS) development. • The main objects that mechatronics studies are mechatronic modules. • MS are intended to perform a set movement. • In MS methods of advanced intelligent control are used to secure high quality in performing precise movements.

- 10. Computer Control Device Basic Functions • Control of mechanical movement process on-line with current sensor data analysis. • Arrangements to control MS functional movements. • Interaction with operator via human-machine interface off-line and on-line interaction at the moment of MS movement. • Data exchange between peripheral devices, sensors and other devices of the system.
- 11. The Core of Mechatronic Approach At the stage of designing one interface, as a separate device, is excluded out of a traditional structure, but physical essence of transformation carried out by this module is kept. in other words It consists in integrating of components probably of different physical nature into a uniform functional module.
- 12. Basic Advantages in Comparison with Traditional Means of Automation • rather low cost; • ability to perform complicated and precise movements (of high quality); • high reliability, durability and noise immunity; • constructive compactness of modules; • improved overall dimension and dynamic characteristics of machines; • opportunity to rebuild functional modules to sophisticated systems and complexes.
- 13. Modern Trends of MS Development • Office equipment; • Computer facilities; • Photo and video equipment; • Machine-tool construction and equipment for automation of technological processes; • Robotics;
- 14. Modern Trends of MS Development • Aviation, space and military techniques; • Motor car consrtuction;
- 15. Modern Trends of MS Development • Micro machines; • Control and measuring devices and machines; • Simulators for training of pilots and operators; • Show-industry; • Non-conventional vehicles.
- 16. Requirements of the World Market in the Considered Area • Standard ISO 9000; • Necessity for active introduction of forms and methods of international engineering and putting new technologies into practice; • Increasing role of small and average industrial enterprises in economy owing to their ability to quick and flexible reaction to changing requirements of the market; • Intellectualization of mechanical movement control systems and technological functions of modern machines.
- 17. Fundamental Problems • Structural integration of mechanical, electronic and information departments into a uniform creative staff; • Education and training of engineers specialized in mechatronics and managers able to organize integration and supervise work of strictly specialized experts with different qualifications; • Integration of information technologies from various scientific and technical fields into a uniform toolkit to provide computer support of mechatronic problems; • Standardization and unification of all used elements and processes at designing and manufacturing MS.
