Intelligent Greenhouses: Integrated Hierarchical Management
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a hierarchical control approach with three layers is defined to control the crop growth based on climate and economic criteria for tomato greenhouse. Integrated greenhouse management consists of energy, climate, water-fertilizer, crop quality and pest-disease management. The main purpose of a modern greenhouse is to define the information flow, to control optimum material and energy flow for crop production. The high-tech intelligent greenhouse uses expert software, communication links and many sensors. In other words, an intelligent greenhouse application includes information, control and hardware sub-systems. The hierarchical control architecture provides an integral solution among layers. The intelligent greenhouse technology targets lower energy, water, pesticide, and source use. High-tech greenhouses are managed according to the strategic, tactical and operational levels based on sensor, communication and software like an industrial plant.

The paper aims at achieving intelligent control of greenhouses using a central system based on associative memory. In our approach, the control system and the greenhouse infrastructure together form a living system, an organism. “The brain” consists of central intelligent system and is based on hardware associative memories. It communicates with sensory cells scattered in the greenhouse and out...
