Control Performance Assessment: A General Survey

  • Conference paper
Book cover Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 79))

Abstract

This paper reviews the different indexes and benchmarks used in the control performance assessment field of industrial processes. They are usually implemented to detect and diagnose malfunctions and disturbances in industrial controllers. This survey is just an overview of the methods and tools used in the control performance assessment/monitoring (CPA/CPM) technology which has been deeply studied over the last two decades.
