Abstract
An adjustment control method and apparatus of this invention assume that a dependency relationship table representing qualitative characteristics, in which manipulated variables are classified in units of change patterns of controlled variables, and are characterized in that an adjustment rule for adjustment is generated. An adjustment control method and apparatus of this invention is characterized in that it is determined whether the current object situation exhibits an exceptional behavior (vibration/saturation), on the basis of selection of an adjusted controlled variable and a manipulated variable obtained from an automatically generated adjustment rule and a past operation in response to an occasionally output deviation. If it is determined that no exceptional behavior is observed, the instruction of the generated adjustment rule is performed, otherwise, the correction amount of the. manipulated variable which is input to the object to be adjusted is given assuming that a predetermined input operation is performed.
