During the past ten years, carmakers have. responded to that demand by pro- ducing highly sophisticated electronic systems in the driver information field. They are now used to provide trip infor- mation, including calculations of esti- mated time of arrivai or how many kil- omfetres can bé driven before running out of fuel, waming of mechanical and safety-related'ý problems, and many other information-oriented responses. Many major electronie systems now in cars are capable of diagnosing them- selves, memorizing their own mfalfunc- tions and communicating bothto the driver and the service technician. They often wamn the driver before it reaches danger levels in the car's operation. The GCC (Graphic Control Centre) operated fim a finger touch-sensitive cathode ray tube, is one of the most advanced systems in use in some 1988 GM models. It replaces 91 controls required to accomplish the saine pur- poses with conventional systems in six basic areas: climate control, sumfmary, radio, trip monitor, gauges, and diag- nostic information. When any informa- tion item is required, the driver need only touch the appropriate spot on the screen iDD DUJRHAM THE -REGIONAL MUNICIPA LITY 0F DURHAM NOTICE 0F PUBLIC MEETING Cr, THE CORPORATIQN OF H TW O REQUIES A QUALIFCATOPRTONFTETW FWI Applicants must have successfully completed Grade 12 or acceptable eq uivalent.
