Closure: The Strength of the Concepts

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
ADEX Optimized Adaptive Controllers and Systems

Part of the book series: Advances in Industrial Control ((AIC))

  • 846 Accesses

Abstract

This chapter presents the conclusions of more than four decades of continuous research and development beginning in the early 1970s. It recalls the historical evolution of process control methodologies, which over the years were enhanced as new concepts became incorporated to give ADEX controllers and systems as they are implemented today. It illustrates how the solution to the problems lies in the strength of the new concepts.
