Abstract

A performance dimension is selected, and a gap in machine performance, according to the selected dimension, is identified. A target value is identified to improve machine control according to the selected dimension. A dependent dimension, which depends on the selected dimension, is selected and a dependency indicator, that indicates a dependency of the dependent dimension on the selected dimension, is accessed to identify a value of the dependent dimension that will change if the machine is controlled so that the value of the selected dimension is moved from a current value to the target value. The change in value of the selected dimension, and the dependent dimension are aggregated to determine whether machine control should be modified so the value of the selected dimension moves toward the target value. If so, a corresponding control operation is identified, and control signals are generated to control the machine to perform the identified control operation.
