Control sequence generation in multistage fuzzy control systems for design process
The purpose of this study is to investigate and optimize the dynamics of state transitions during a process of multistage fuzzy control systems. A variation of the methodology for solving the Vehicle Routing Problem, known as the Savings Method, is applied to finding a sequence of controls to maximize the overall performance of multistage control processes. The Savings Method has been modified into a heuristic to traverse state precedence when transitioning from one known system state to another. In addition, the procedure allows for imposing of two different types of precedences (mandatory and optional) among transition states, as well as a pair of fuzzy constraints and goals throughout each stage of the process. As the control of the system progresses, fuzzy goals may be preset or introduced interactively.
