Abstract

This paper presents a reconfigurable multi-agent system (MAS) applied to distributed control system (DCS). Agents co-operate, evaluating the system on different levels of information abstraction. Context-based statistical remote expert agent or local supervisory agent are used to evaluate control agent performance. Using expert-selected period of good performance the reference distribution function is proposed. Periodically, for any monitoring period, a sample of observations is taken for local or remote system performance monitoring. Because evaluation may also be carried out remotely two cases should be considered. Remote expert observes changes of parameters that come from process performance degradation. Second case refers to communication problems when data transmission is corrupted and can not be used for system evaluation. Because of that application, context model is necessary to inform the remote expert about transmission quality. For evaluation of transmission channel, the idea of a context tree is utilised. Number of nodes and leaves taken into considerations depends on the expert's knowledge.
