Abstract

The number of artificial intelligence methods applied to actual industrial process control and/or to plant-wide control has been rapidly increasing. For example, the application of fuzzy controllers in continuous process control and manufacturing, expert systems for automatic and/or automated decision making in production control and in supporting the managerial activities, have proven their effectiveness.
