The paper presents a concept of intelligent hierarchical control for complex dynamical processes and suggests architecture of control system consisting of robust, adaptive, and self-organizing levels. Intelligent features of the proposed system are mostly concentrated at self-organizing level incorporated into selflearning, self-configuring, self-optimizing, and decision making algorithms. State-of-the-art at each level is described. Case studies have been chosen from the area of plasma control in tokamak-reactors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
