General structure of System Media
particularly the IFIP Summer School in Karlstad (Abramczyk et al.
2004
). This
summer school played an important role in the development of this project and
helped disseminate the results.
The basic flow diagram of e-Train-Diabetes is shown in Fig.

Building Automation
This project involved an approach to building automation which was developed
using the experience gained in the Polish power industry (Lewoc et al.
2007a
,
b
).
The building automation system software architecture is shown in Fig.

Computer System Robustness Evaluation
The problem of the data acquisition/control system topology for distributed control
systems is usually solved in a rather arbitrary way. This project involved the devel-
opment of a more logical approach based on the evaluation of the system robust-
ness, using the
μ
function as the measure of robustness (Doyle
1982
; Maciejowski
1989
). The
μ
function is a measure of the system's ability to respond in the presence
of disturbances. The research team proposed a method which can be used by system
designers and has the advantage of low computational effort for communication
