Report on project development and improvement of identification methods for time varying and nonlinear industrial processes

In the frame of the projecl I1Identification cf nonlinear and time-variable processes" up to now moinly investigations concerning study and development of Borne identification methods hove been perforrned together with evaluation of these methods on simulated 89 also on real proccsses. To solve these problems a great number of different computer programs were developed which, in our opinion, should be connected in to an independent program package or incorporated into one of the exiting one. In the same time on the Yugoslav side the general purpose CACSD package, called ANA was developed. This package appears to be a sensible frame for inclusion of developed computer programs, as well as a good basis for a common development of a new and advenced software tool. The last, as we agreedwith our German colleges, should be a theme of further cooperation between Technische Hochschule Darmstadt and Josef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana. Unfortunately, both sides developed the software on the different computers and under different operating systems. Therefore a kind of unification has become an imperative. In this sense os a good solution IBM-PC and compatible computers, running under MS-DOS operating system, were chosen as a common basis for further development of software, due to inexpensiveness and good performances. Following this idea, the first step was the implementntion of the existing package ANA, which was developed on DHC computer under operation system RT-II, on the IBM-PC computer. In the first part of this report same problems of the transfer of the package ANA to the IBM-PC computer and special features considering this installation are commented. The second part of the report includes a presentation of a special functionin ANA, namely, the concept of the general dynwnic simulation [...
