Industrial Lecture – Three Disruptive Technologies Coming Soon to Manufacturing and Process Control
Speaker: Thomas Badgwell, PhD, PE
In this presentation we highlight three emerging technologies that appear to be truly disruptive; that is, they are likely to have such a large impact that they will change the way theoreticians and practitioners think about and accomplish manufacturing and process control. These technologies are Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC), Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), and Open Process Automation (OPA).
