Abstract
A demand estimation apparatus for controlling machines wherein each cycle of a demand fluctuating substantially cyclically is divided into a plurality of sections in which a processor operated under program control sets temporary boundary times of a current cycle on the basis of measured demands during the current cycle and estimated demands for corresponding sections of a previous cycle, and corrects the estimated boundary times set at the end of a previous cycle in accordance with the temporary boundary times determined for the current cycle in such a manner that the total demands in all the sections are equal or have another predetermined relationship.
