Abstract

In a method for supplying a resource to an entity from a resource actuator, a plurality of physics-based models pertaining to the resource actuator and the entity are developed, a condition detected at the entity is received, feedback control on a resource demand of the entity employed based upon the detected condition, feed forward control on the resource demand of the entity is employed based upon the detected condition and the plurality of physics-based models, a constraint optimization problem having an objective function and at least one constraint using the plurality of physics-based models is formulated, a solution to the constraint optimization problem is determined, in which the solution provides the actuator setting, and the resource actuator is set to the actuator setting to supply the entity with the resource from the resource actuator.
