After 20 years since their birth, equation-oriented and object-oriented modelling techniques and tools are now mature, as far as solving simulation problems is concerned. Conversely, there is still much to be done in order to provide more direct support for the design of advanced, model-based control systems, starting from object-oriented plant models. Following a brief review of the current state of the art in this field, the paper presents some proposals for future developments: open model exchange formats, automatic model-order reduction techniques, automatic derivation of simplified transfer functions, automatic derivation of LFT models, automatic generation of inverse models for robotic systems, and support for nonlinear model predictive control.

Abstract
After 20 years since their birth, equation-oriented and object-oriented modelling techniques and tools are now mature, as far as solving simulation problems is concerned. Conversely, there is still much to be done in order to provide more direct support for the design of advanced, model-based control systems, starting from object-oriented plant models. Following a brief review of the current state of the art in this field, the paper presents some proposals for future developments: open model exchange formats, automatic model-order reduction techniques, automatic derivation of simplified transfer functions, automatic derivation of LFT models, automatic generation of inverse models for robotic systems, and support for nonlinear model predictive control.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
