Overview

Model-based control has emerged as an important way to improve plant efficiency in the process industries, while meeting processing and operating policy constraints. This text offers reports on model-based control technology presented by scientists worldwide and experts from industry. Important issues that a mode-based control system has to address are covered, ranging from dynamic simulation and control-relevant identification to information integration. Specific emerging topics are also covered, such as robust control and nonlinear model predictive control. In addition to critical reviews of recent advances, the reader is presented with ideas, industrial applications and views of future needs and challenges.
