automatisierungsmethode and system to determine the optimal strategy for control of a complex industrial system, especially for the operation of waterlieferungsnetzen using an ecosystem model

摘要

This invention relates to an automatic method for determining an optimum management criterion for controlling an industrial system, comprising one or more operable control members, the assembly of the states taken by said members defining a configuration of the industrial system, the industrial system operating in an operative context defined by the operative state of the system and/or by the operative availability of one or more of said members and/or by one or more conditioning parameters external to the system, the configuration of the industrial system being adapted to be modified as a function of the operative context according to a management criterion comprising one or more "fuzzy" rules, said method being characterised by performing a multi-species ecosystem selection and evolution iterative genetic algorithm, the ecosystem including a population of M operative context agents and N populations of Qi fuzzy rule assembly agents, so as to let those agents of fuzzy rule assemblies better responding to said one or more management criteria and the most hostile operative context agents to reproduce. This invention also relates to an automatic method for management and control according to a dynamically up-dated optimum management criterion for an industrial system, that utilises said automatic method for determining an optimum management criterion for controlling an industrial system. This invention also relates to the necessary instruments for execution of the methods as well as the apparatuses that perform the methods. IMAGE
