The target of this course is to get students acquainted with practical design, realization and parameters setting of controllers for real process control. Detailed explanation of all aspects for usage of controllers in control loops. The student will design and verify the simple adaptive control algorithm as a semester project. Course absolvent should be able to design and to adjust process controllers with standard algorithms. S/he should be also prepared to apply control algorithms with very complicated structures into a process computer.

The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year.
