This book compiles a collection of papers presented at an IFIP (International Federation for Information Processing) workshop, focusing on the practical application of real-time digital control systems. It delves into the theoretical underpinnings, design methodologies, and implementation challenges of integrating digital control algorithms into real-world processes. The contributions span various industrial and scientific domains, showcasing diverse approaches to achieve robust, efficient, and timely control in complex systems. The essence of the book lies in bridging the gap between theoretical control engineering concepts and their tangible, real-time execution in applied settings.

The inherent challenge of real-time control lies in ensuring both computational correctness and temporal determinism.

Key themes

Real-Time System Determinism
This theme explores the critical requirement for control systems to produce outputs within strict time constraints, ensuring predictability and stability. It delves into the challenges of scheduling tasks, managing computational resources, and minimizing latency in digital implementations to guarantee timely responses.
Robustness and Stability in Digital Control
A cornerstone of control engineering, this theme is examined within the context of digital systems. It focuses on designing controllers that maintain desired performance and stability despite uncertainties, disturbances, and model inaccuracies, which are often exacerbated by digital approximations and delays.
Digital Implementation Challenges
This theme addresses the practical difficulties encountered when converting continuous-time control theories into discrete-time digital algorithms. It covers topics like sampling effects, quantization errors, finite word length effects, and computational limitations of digital processors.
