Further Developments on Applying Generic Task Approaches to the Industrial Process Control Problem

Contents

The Intelligent Process Control Architecture (IPCA) a control architecture for dynamic processes which is rooted in the Generic Task approach to knowledge-based systems. The first generation of IPCA has been completed, and experimentally proved in the testbed domain of microwave processing of polymer composite materials. The next generation of IPCA is now being designed, and will incorporate more advanced computing techniques as well as employ more sophisticated processing equipment for the testlxxl domain.
