Abstract :
One of the most active areas for the application of fuzzy set theory has been in process control. We trace the development of this research, from the first papers by Zadeh to current efforts in both theory and practice. We review some themes that appear in this corpus and suggest some directions for future work. In particular, we suggest that by adopting some concepts from artificial intelligence, existing approaches to fuzzy control system design could be significantly enhanced.
