Robotic technologies are advancing in the field of minimally invasive surgery. The last decade, more than 1.5 million laparoscopic surgical procedures, including gynecologic, cardiac, urology, thoracic, and general surgery, have been performed by popular robotic and mechatronic systems for minimally invasive surgery. In contrast to big popular robot systems which instruments are designed for manipulation and video observation this paper describes novel instrument for therapy with application in minimally invasive surgery. The aim of the work is design of a compact, convenient, simplified, better possibilities and suitable price devices there by and the small hospitals to have accesses to this systems and patient benefit from it our ultimate aim is radical improvements to the quality and efficiency of our healthcare.

The parallel sensor data integration local processing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is one of the possible solutions to reduce the neighbor sensor node’s communication and to save energy. At the same time, the process of local sensor node integration needs an additional processor and energy resources. Therefore the development of a realistic and reliable model of data integration processes in WSNs is critical in many aspects. The proposed GN based method and the related modeling process covers most of the aspects of the parallel sensor data integration in the WSN’s, based on 802.15.4 protocols. For simulation and analysis tool is used the WSNet simulator and some additional software libraries. The article presents a new method for modeling and simulation of sensor data integration parallel processing in WSNs. The proposed method uses modeling based on the Generalized Nets (GN) approach which is a new and an advanced way of parallel data processing analysis of Wireless Sensor Systems (WSS).

The main purposes of experiment “Obstanovka” (“Environment” in Russian) consisting of several instruments are to measure a set of electromagnetic and plasma phenomena characterizing the space weather conditions, and to evaluate how such a big and highly energy consuming body as the International Space Station disturbs the surrounding plasma, and how the station itself is charged due to the operation of so many instruments, solar batteries, life supporting devices, etc. Two identical Langmuir electrostatic probes are included in the experiment “Obstanovka”. In this paper the Langmuir probes for “Obstanovka” experiment are described, including the choice of geometry (spherical or cylindrical), a more reliable method for the sweep voltage generation, an adaptive algorithm for the probe’s operation. Special attention is paid to the possibility for remote upgrading of the instrument from the ground using the standard communication channels.

The paper presents a hierarchal distributed system for collection and management of the information. The lowest level for information collection from different sensors is realized using special designed microprocessor controller OCTOPORT_BT It is supporting several communication interfaces, including Bluetooth. This solution allows remote access to the different sources of information.

This paper describes one application of the script language Tcl/Tk for building of OMRON'S RS485 interface networking API (Application Program Interface). In the article are considered several topics: OMRON'S RS485 interface specification, networks realization using this interface,Omron application commands set, building of API as TCL/TK extension for Win95/98/NT and Tcl/Tk technique using for API realization. It's present the data base logical structures too. The developed software can be included in different projects, based on RS485 interface, realizing distributed process control system. The extension is designed according to Free Source License of GNU-groups.
