Command-control for Real-time Systems

A real-time system is a complex system which is an integral partof an industrial or experimental system, a vehicle or aconstruction machine. The peculiarity of these systems is that theyare driven by real-time targets in distributed environments.Command-control for Real-time Systems presents the calculation ofcorrection for industrial systems of different physical natures,their implementation on real-time target industrial systems(PLC-SCADA, embedded systems with distributed networks, NetworkedControl Systems) and their validation by simulation. It optimizesindustrial processes by the use of automatic tools, industrialcomputing and communications networks and aims to successivelyintegrate new control laws (linear, nonlinear and fuzzycontrollers) so that users can leverage the power of engineeringscience as an automatic service process optimization whilemaintaining their high maintainability facilities.Contents1.
