Control System: regulates, commands, directs, or manages the behavior of other devices or systems using control loops. It can range from a single home heating controller using a thermostat controlling a domestic boiler to large Industrial control systems which are used for controlling processes or machines.
The WHO has set ambitious targets for eliminating TB in low-incidence countries such as the US and Canada. While it’s true that the majority of TB cases in these settings arise from rea...
