Control engineering
Control engineering or control systems engineering is an engineering discipline that applies automatic control theory to design systems with desired behaviors in control environments.
The discipline of controls overlaps and is usually taught along with electrical engineering at many institutions around the world.
The practice uses sensors and detectors to measure the output performance of the process being controlled; these measurements are used to provide corrective feedback helping to achieve the desired performance.
Systems designed to perform without requiring human input are called automatic control systems( such as cruise control for regulating the speed of a car).
Multi-disciplinary in nature, control systems engineering activities focus on implementation of control systems mainly derived by mathematical modeling of a diverse range of systems.
Information Control Systems
Information Control Systems( founded in 1962) was a computer programming and data processing company serving clients in the Midwestern United States.
Measurex
Measurex was an American company based in Cupertino, California.
It was one of the first companies to develop computer control systems for industry, primarily the paper- making industry.
The development of the control systems included the development of control software, and development of scanning sensors to measure different properties of paper.
The company was acquired by Honeywell in at a price tag of almost
At the acquisition, Measurex had 2,250 employees in 30 countries and revenue of$ 254 million.
Telus
Telus Communications( stylized as TELUS) is a Canadian national telecommunications company that provides a wide range of telecommunications products and services including internet access, voice, entertainment, healthcare, video, and IPTV television.
The company is based in the Vancouver, British Columbia area; it was originally based in Edmonton, Alberta, before its merger with BC Tel in 1999.
Telus' wireless division, Telus Mobility, offers HSPA+, and LTE- based mobile phone networks.
Telus is the incumbent local exchange carrier in British Columbia and Alberta.
Telus' primary competitors are Shaw Communications( in the western provinces).
It also competes in the mobile sector with Rogers Communications, Bell Canada and Vidéotron( in Quebec).
Telus is a member of the British Columbia Technology Industry Association.
Farouk Shami
Farouk Shami is an American businessman and founder of the hair- care and spa products company, Farouk Systems located in Texas.
In 2009, Shami ran in the 2010 Texas gubernatorial election.
Tom, Dick & Harry Creative Co.

IEEE Control Systems Award
The IEEE Control Systems Award is a technical field award given to an individual by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers( IEEE)" for outstanding contributions to control systems engineering, science or technology".
It is an IEEE- level award, created in 1980 by the Board of Directors of the IEEE, but sponsored by the IEEE Control Systems Society.
Originally the name was IEEE Control Systems Science and Engineering Award, but after 1991 the IEEE changed it to" IEEE Control Systems Award".
Recipients of this award receive a bronze medal, a certificate, and an honorarium.
IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology
The IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology is published bimonthly by the IEEE Control Systems Society.
The journal publishes papers, letters, tutorials, surveys, and perspectives on control systems technology.
The editor- in- chief is Prof. Andrea Serrani( The Ohio State University).
According to the" Journal Citation Reports", the journal has a 2017 impact factor of 3.882.
Digital model railway control systems
Digital model railway control systems are an alternative to control a layout and simplify the wiring and add more flexibility in operations.
A number of control systems are available to operate locomotives on model railways.
Analog systems where the speed and the direction of a train is controlled by adjusting the voltage on the track are still popular while they have recently given way to control systems based on computer technology.
ZTR Control Systems
ZTR Control Systems is a privately held company based in London, Ontario, Canada and with an office in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.
ZTR provides monitoring and control systems for the railway and industrial off- road compact construction equipment markets.

Question: Are both businesses, Telus and Ztr Control Systems, located in the same country?
Answer: yes
