Optimal control of greenhouse cultivation

A reference on the development and advances in optimal greenhouse control. It focuses on model-based methods to achieve the best economical result. It discusses physical models of greenhouse climate and biological models of crop growth, as well as classical rule-based and multivariable feedback cont...
