Two recently published studies have considered whether and how robots, which have been designed for manufacturing applications, could find use in mining. The conclusions of both studies, if not identical, are compatible. Automation of mining activities will continue. Robots, at least in the short term, will have little application in mining. However, robotic concepts, both hardware and software, are of considerable relevance to mining automation, and can be anticipated to diffuse gradually into mine environments. The present paper is intended to convey the current state of thought on this subject to IFAC Symposium participants who may be unfamiliar with the referenced studies, and is not intended to report previously unpublished research

The reviewed remote control system developed for the central control of district heating systems is characterized by a hierarchical structure and distributed intelligence. Microcomputers run both in the heating centres and the dispatching centre of the remote control system. The data-transfer is carried out on telecommunication lines between them. The main function of the remote control system is data collection. There are also intelligent local heating controllers belonging to the remote control system. Both the terminals and the microcomputer running in the dispatching centre are built of the modular elements of the MMT system. The operating system of the microcomputers running on different levels of the hierarchy is a very simple real-time scheduler. It ensures a synchronous and parallel running of tasks. All the measured, calculated, adjustable and fixed variables of the controlled district heating system are stored in the so-called technological data base of the microcomputers residing partly in ROM, partly in RAM or on floppy disks. The programming language of the software of the microcomputer used in the dispatching centre is written in FORMULA.

In this paper we will describe and illustrate some applications of CACSD packages in Dutch industry. Some typical usages of CACSD in industry will be illustrated. Further we will analyse the results of an inquiry with respect to the use and need for CACSD in industry and universities which was held in 1982/1983 in the Benelux and we will resume the activities of a working group in the Benelux which aims to promote CACSD

DISCO is a di stributed, supervisory and co ntrol system designed for use in industrial process controlapplications and/or research and development laboratories. The program is a sequential file processor designed to execute on a distributed network of micro + mini + maxi computers in conjunction with the computer vendor's operating system and network software. A modular structure, standard software interfaces, and a high level of support for the user-interface provide a very flexible, user-oriented system that can handle a wide variety of applications.

A survey is given on new impacts of artificial intelligence on automatic control. Artificial intelligence offers its tools to automatic control at two decision points: input and control. Visual, voice and information pattern as inputs to control systems are treated, especially for quality control, medical applications. A glimpse on expert systems illuminates the possibilities of automated dispatcher and other decision making. New algorithms solving very complex problems offer several possibilities. A short report on the intelligent robot program of the author's group is given and as a conclusion some considerations on artificial intelligence, control and development.

The multi-input multi-output servomechanism concept is applied to conventional tie line bias control (TBC) as an example of decentralised automatic generation control (AGC); to a centralised form of TBC and to another centralised AGC scheme. The tracking properties of the AGC servocontroller and decoupling from higher levels of control are explored together with improved stability possibilities in the case of centralised coordination.
