(DCS) A digital computer used for real-timecontrol of a dynamic system, usually in an industrialenvironment, possibly as part of a Supervisory Control andData Acquisition (SCADA) system.A DCS samples feedback from the system under control andmodifies the control signals in an attempt to achieve somedesired behaviour.Analysis of such digital-analogue feedback systems can involvemathematical methods such as difference equations, Laplacetransforms, z transfer functions, state space models andstate transition matrices.

Proto Oncogene Proteins c erbB 2
- cell surface protein-tyrosine kinase that is found to be overexpressed in significant number adenocarcinomas. It has extensive homology can heterodimerize EGF EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR), 3 receptor (RECEPTOR, 3) and the 4 receptor. Activation of erbB-2 receptor occurs during heterodimer formation with a ligand-bound erbB family members. EC 2.7.11.-.
