Coordination in a hierarchical multi-actuator controller

A hierarchical multi-actuator controller is represented as a multi-resolutional information (knowledge) system utilizing a number of intelligent modules with decision making capabilities. The laws of multi-resolutional information (knowledge) organization and processing are presumed to be satisfied including the rules of dealing with redundant knowledge. A general case is considered in which a process to be controlled by a multiplicity of actuators is a distributed one and the condition of distribution can be formulated analytically. Operation of a lumped multi-actuator process is a particular case which has a broad practical application.
