ADDRESSING THE SHORTFALL IN PROCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS

摘要

There is a shortfall or imbalance between the steady increase in the complexity of process-related technologies, and the much slower rate of increase in the sophistication of process control systems. This paper explores two avenues alone which this imbalance can be attacked, The first would more aggressively exploit opportunities for incremental instrumental improvements, while the second suggests more fundamental changes to both structure and substance.
