first industrial application of MPC was in 1973. A key motivation was to provide better
performance than could be obtained with the widely-used PID controller whilst making it …

Abstract Model predictive control was emerging into the process industries during the
1980's. Today it is commonplace and, in some sense, mature. Commercial packages are …

Aunque en el pasado podıa considerarse que el unico objetivo del control consistıa en
mantener una operación estable del proceso, actualmente la industrias se enfrentan a un …

Abstract Model Predictive Control (MPC) originated in the late seventies and has developed
considerably since then. The term Model Predictive Control does not designate a specific …

The PID controller has been a work horse in process industries for over 40 years. The
classical methods of Ziegler-Nichols and Cohen-Coon are industry standards. PID-type …

Model Predictive Control is an important technique used in the process control industries. It
