intensified. Responding to these factors‚ Heublein decided to develop and implement a Project planning‚ management‚ and control system for capital engineering Projects (PM&C). The goal of developing this system was primarily financial‚ in terms of keeping projects from exceeding budget and optimally allocating increasingly scarce investment funds. A specialized expert in the project management as a consultant and an internal program manager for PM&C were selected. The ground rules of the projects

CHAPTER I 1. Fuzzy control Fuzzy control is a practical alternative for a variety of challenging control applicationssince it provides a convenient method for constructing nonlinear controllersvia the use of heuristic information. In a sense fuzzy systems can be “trained” and can “learn” how to perform throughout a control task and are considered as intelligent control system. Fuzzy control system design is based on empirical methods‚ basically a methodical approach to trail-and-error. The
