Automation of climate control systems in livestock buildings

Moving Horizon Control and Estimation of Livestock Ventilation Systems and Indoor Climate

Abstract: In this paper, a new control strategy involves exploiting actuator redundancy in a multivariable system is developed for rejecting the covariance of the fast frequency disturbances and pursuing optimum energy solution. This strategy enhances the resilience of the control system to disturbances beyond its bandwidth and reduce energy consumption through on-line optimization computation....

Control Systems, Robotics, And Automation

Distributed Automation and Control Systems

Distributed automation and control systems are considered from the implementation point of view. The role of middleware and, in particular, the object-oriented open-standard-based CORBA is discussed and its usefulness for system integration and communication abstraction is shown on a practical example of an experimental robotic system.
