Multi-objective model predictive control for real-time operation of a multi-reservoir system

This paper presents an extended Model Predictive Control scheme called Multi-objective Model Predictive Control (MOMPC) for real-time operation of a multi-reservoir system. The MOMPC approach incorporates the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II), multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) and the receding horizon principle to solve...

Multi-scenario Model Predictive Control based on genetic algorithms for level regulation of open water systems under ensemble forecasts

Operational water resources management needs to adopt operational strategies to re-allocate water resources by manipulating hydraulic structures. Model Predictive Control (MPC) has been shown to be a promising technique in this context. However, we still need to advance MPC in the face of hydrological uncertainties. This study makes the first...

Quality-aware control for optimizing meat supply chains

Controlling food quality and reducing waste is one of the most challenging tasks in the food industry, as it is facing high rates of wastage, leading to negative environmental impact. This research focuses on improving the scheduling and control of the supply chain of Irish lamb meat using real-time quality and temperature information....
