Abstract
In this paper a framework for cooperative testing, implementation and learning of control algorithms for the purpose of controlling experimental pilot-plants is presented. It is based on the principles stated in the IEC61499 standard. The proposed framework enables modification of the control algorithm structure without rewriting the main software component executed on the programmable automation controller (PAC). Functions realized by particular blocks may be changed dynamically during the runtime. The framework is implemented in LabVIEW enabling implementation of algorithms containing advanced analysis functions and complex control algorithms by multiple users, providing an effective practical group support system.
