Abstract
A method includes retrieving process variable values from a multivariable predictive controller. The multivariable predictive controller is executed on an embedded platform and is configured to control an industrial process. The method also includes simulating how the multivariable predictive controller would attempt to control the industrial process based on the process variable values. The method further includes transmitting simulated process variable values to the multivariable predictive controller.
