“…The development of an efficient and optimal climate control for a large-sized live-occupant building system is still far beyond mature comparing with the status for other industrial control systems [6]. Some recent investigations, such as [2], [5], [9], [11], [12], [13], [14], showed the huge potential to use the model-based method for developing advanced climate control systems.…”

“…From the control design point of view, CFD often leads to too complicated model along with its demanding computation power, therefore, we won't consider this kind of method here. The multi-zone modeling method has been used in [5], [11] and some advanced controllers such as MPC have been developed and studied through simulation in [13]. The multi-zone model can provide a good and reasonable precision to reflect the real system, and meanwhile also has a good orientation for control design.…”

This paper discusses mathematical modeling for development and implementation of a model-based optimal indoor climate control for a real-sized livestock stable system. As a typical modern and large-sized stable system, the considered stable uses hybrid ventilation and low-pressure climate control strategies. Due to the main concern of the feasibility for commercializing the developed control system, the single-zone concept is adopted for modeling the considered system. Based on the energy balance and mass balance analysis, the thermal and flow dynamics of the indoor climate are quantitatively described. The models for air inlets, outlets and their driving systems as well as the heating systems, one is used to heat up the stable and another one is used to emulate the animals' heat generation, are also extensively studied. The system parameters are identified through arranged experiments. The developed model is further validated through comparison with real system's operations. Even though some deviations in terms of the indoor temperature can be observed, the developed model shows consistent intendancy with the real system. Nevertheless, some modeling errors can be compensated by an optimal (constraint MPC) controller developed based on this simple model. The obtained results show a clear feasibility to use a simple single-zone model for developing a sophisticated optimal control to handle largesized climate control problem.

This paper studies an architecture of multi-server Web industrial facility monitoring systems using only commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) Web browser's existing functionality. First we introduce our original method of background change-of-state (CoS) communication while the user interface is focusing to a currently-connected foreground Web server. The method makes it possible for currently-notconnected background Web servers to push a CoS message to the COTS browser. Next, we show our automatic recovery method from COTS browser's communication errors and our experiment results of COTS browsers' long-term memory leaking characteristics.

“…The Simulink model with the S-function can be used to either run simulations of the pig stable, or generate Comedi compliant production code through Real-Time Workshop. The code generation is realized through a Comedi library for Simulink [5]. Code generation with RealTime Workshop allows for a multitude of targets, thus, the specific target of this application in unimportant.…”

Abstract. We present a complete tool chain for automatic controller synthesis using Uppaal Tiga and Simulink. The tool chain is explored using an industrial case study for climate control in a pig stable. The problem is modeled as a game, and we use Uppaal Tiga to automatically synthesize safe strategies that are transformed for input to Simulink, which is used to run simulations on the controller and generate code that can be executed in an actual pig stable provided by industrial partner Skov A/S. The model allows for guiding the synthesis process and generate different strategies that are compared through simulations.
