Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
This wide-ranging and ambitous research will extend Distributed Control Systems (DCS) to its logical conclusion by delivering software support architectures for fully decentralised process control (so called Real DCS). Achievement of Real DCS target-software and development architectures requires multi-disciplinary research drawing on expertise in systems, software and control engineering.The research aims will be achieved through the following four work packages:. elaboration, formalisation and refinement of an Integrated Design Notation for process control applications (University of Sheffield), co-simulation of multiple views of the system under development each with potentially non-uniform abstraction levels (University of Sheffield with University of Wales, Bangor), automatic generation of optimised process control software and hard real-time extensions to a Java Virtual machine (University of Wales, Bangor), and control algorithms structuring to meet engineering constraints associated with the application specific issues (UMIST).
