What is A Hierarchical Platform for Implementing Hybrid Systems in Process Control about?

This paper describes a development platform for the description, analysis and implementation of real-time control systems, consisting of a mixture of continuous and discrete components. Hybrid and discrete-event system techniques are used for formally defining the control and supervisory system requirements. These requirements result from functional characteristics specified for the process to be controlled. Based on the specifications, a series of control components belonging to a finite set of object classes is defined and arranged in a hierarchical architecture. The hierarchical topology is a simple tree, where any component has a single parent. Object-oriented technologies are used to implement the notion of component classes. With this formal description of process functionality, a computer software generator interprets the control specifications and produces executable control software. This software reacts to environmental responses by executing the supervisory and control actions required to achieve the desired process behavior. The paper only describes the conceptual idea of the proposed control development platform in a general manner. As an example, an application of thi
