Abstract
An object is to provide a system in which components can overall operate in concert with one another by using only functions about the components, without using the theory of probability. The system includes a plurality of function blocks correlated to one another. The plurality of function blocks each include: a storing unit including an evaluation function that is associated with its own function block; a profit maximization control unit for adjusting the operation level of its own function block by information about the evaluation function of another of the plurality of function blocks that has a relation with its own function block; an activation/shutdown problem solution control unit for adjusting a suppression of the operation level by profit maximization control based on an active state/shutdown state of its own function block; and a restraint condition fulfillment control unit for adjusting the operation level of its own function block based on a restraint condition that is to be fulfilled by its own function block and all of the plurality of function blocks together.
