In the article a therapy selection method by using topological modelling and multi- objective optimization is presented. In a medicine practice a doctor by taking into the count patients' health state and laboratory results, tries to suggest a treatment strategy, which mostly is a drug therapy. To solve this task a decision support system has been developed and proposed. The system includes a mathematical model of three self connected diseases. Therapies are evaluated by five efficiency objectives. To find the optimal therapy, seven multi- objective methods are selected and used. Optimization methods form decision support module which is implemented in the medical computer system. To evaluate a performance of the system, test examples are analysed. Conclusion includes the summary and proposals of further research.

A fermentation process is generally defined as a biological process containing the growth of the biomass (bacteria, yeasts) resulting from the consumption of essential substrate supplies (source of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc.). The biomass growth is usually followed by the production of various products from which especially the variety of antibiotics makes the fermentation processes attractive for the industrial utilization. However, the complicated dynamics, high level of uncertainty and nonlinearity and difficult online measurement of the process variables come hand in hand with the attractivity and turn the attempts on optimal control of the fermentation process into a very delicate challenge. To tackle it, the theory of the gradient projection method has been partially adapted and fully implemented by the authors of this paper. Numerical experiments show its significantly better performance than for other known methods. Moreover, these experiments reveal an interesting "superprofile" visible for long cultivation times.

In this work, we study the reconstruction of continuous-time models from discrete-time models of bilinear systems. Many dynamical systems contain nonlinearities and evolve continuously in time. However, due to the use of digital sensors for data acquisition, system identification methods typically rely on sampled data and yield a discrete-time model. Linking such a discrete-time model to its equivalent continuous-time dynamics is nontrivial. This paper proposes a discrete-to-continuous dynamics reconstruction for discrete-time models of a class of bilinear systems obtained by system identification. We show that for bilinear systems we can obtain a discrete-time model that is consistent with the measurement data. Furthermore, we show that one can derive from the discrete-time model, its equivalent continuous-time model. Two examples illustrate the approach.

Abstract The activated sludge process is the main process in most urban wastewater treatment systems. It is considered complex in nature, and building its mathematical model in practice becomes difficult. A simple and easy way to build the simulation models for the system is needed. In this paper, a LabVIEW based simulator for the system is presented. LabVIEW offers a highly efficient, simple and flexible platform for simulation and control. Building applications in LabVIEW require less coding, and debugging is easy and fast. The proposed simulator utilizes the Benchmark Simulation Model no.1 (BSM 1) for the biochemical reactor and clarification processes. The operation of the simulator is via a graphical user interface (GUI) built in the LabVIEW environment. The simulation results can be displayed in digital and graphical forms. Simulation results obtained were compared with the results from other software simulation packages in which the COST/IWA Simulation Benchmark has been implemented. The developed simulator is very useful due to its efficiency and accuracy in simulating the wastewater process model. The simulator can serve as a training tool for plant operators/students to provide them with better knowledge and understanding of the process.

Design and integration of industrial automation systems require cooperation of different engineering disciplines and various engineering tools during both design and run time. The scope of this paper is to bridge the gap between design-time description and runtime integration in a semi-automated way. Furthermore, we address the problem of integrating legacy systems with no access to original engineering data. It is assumed that an interface between a real industrial system and software automation tools is OPC Unified Architecture (UA) and we propose to derive the plant knowledge from the OPC UA tag list. Since it is not possible to solve this task in general, we require the tag list to adopt the naming convention of IEC 81346, which is widespread in large-scale systems. This tag list is parsed and the engineering knowledge is derived and stored in the engineering Knowledge Base. Consequently, the plant knowledge is mapped to knowledge related to software automation tools, such as simulators. The proposed methodology is evaluated on a real-life example dealing with a laboratory tank model.

This contribution aims a revision and extension of the ring of retarded quasipolynomial meromorphic functions (RMS) for description and control of time-delay systems (TDS). The original definition has some significant drawbacks - especially, it does not constitute a ring. Our new definition extends the usability to neutral TDS and to those with distributed delays. As first, basic algebraic notions useful for this paper are introduced. A concise overview of algebraic methods for TDS follows. The original and the revised definitions of the ring together with some its properties finish the contribution. There are many illustrative examples that explain introduced terms and findings throughout the paper.
