Development Tool for Implementation of Intelligent Controllers in Real Processes

Intelligent controller integrates in its structure in addition to standard attempt also principles of artificial intelligence, e.g. adaptive control, fuzzy logic, neural networks, quantitative control, etc. Implementation of such intelligent controllers to real process brings together some difficulties. Our approach, which is described as follows, allows testing of intelligent controllers in user friendly graphical environment. Simulation program for dynamic systems is based on C programming language, which enables to simulate discrete and continuous systems (both linear or non-linear). The same graphical environment can be used to evaluate quality of control algorithm in real process. After testing in graphical environment, resulting control algorithm can be sent by serial link without any change to industrial controller with real time operating system.
