Interactive Microcomputer Control System Modeling and Realization Using a Database for Automatic Programming,

Abstract

A program for control system modeling, simulation, and realization useable by the novice programmer was developed for interactive use on a microcomputer. The program uses two software packages; PL/1-80 and DBASE II. The paper covers a complete example for modeling and simulation of a minimum time response ripple free controller for a Plant. The program uses two sample rates, one for modeling the computer and the other for modeling the plant. Variable delays due to computer computation are included and corrected semi-transparent to the control designer. This thesis covers two different fields of interest, one for the experienced control system designer yet a novice programmer, and the other for the novice control designer yet an experienced computer programmer. Key programming concepts include using a business database to automatically program a control problem requiring a scientific language. (Author)
