Abstract :
A genetic algorithm based procedure for direct decision table adjustment is proposed to solve a multiobjective dynamic discrete-time optimal control problem. Multilevel coordinate control is introduced, the task of which is to coordinate and tune the control units according to the multiobjective overall criterion. The optimization of the cascade process according to the multiobjective overall criterion for minimal energy consumption and satisfying output constraints is carried out by means of a genetic algorithm. The proposed evolutionary optimization procedure of the multiobjective multilevel control is characterized by the simplicity of use and inherent adaptability
