Transition State Layer in the Immune Inspired Optimizer

The SILO (Stochastic Immune Layer Optimizer) system is a novel, immune inspired solution for an on-line optimization of a largescale industrial processes. Three layers of optimization algorithm were presented in previous papers. Each layer represents a different strategy of steady state optimization of the process. New layer of the optimization algorithm is presented in this paper. The new Transition State layer is responsible for efficient operation of the optimization system during essential process state transitions. New results from SILO implementation in South Korean power plant are presented. They confirm high efficiency of the SILO optimizer in solving technical problems.
