Abstract
Previous multivariable control techniques have required a degree of mathematical sophistication in their design and implementation. This paper investigates the use of two multivariable control techniques, dynamic matrix control and model-based control, that employ methods readily understandable by a technical person who has a limited control background. The two techniques are compared in a simulation study of the control of a wet process cement kiln.
